Also @jvnadr this is not the first time that i used a VPS,I started using a VPS from some years ago, I have used VPS from Host1free( now its called haphost) then i moved to https://www.budgetvm.com/ , https://www.digitalocean.com/ https://fliphost.net/
http://reversehosts.com etc. I have been hosting ts3 and samp servers from the start and this is the first time that one of my VPS got hacked. as i said before I am not an expert with servers like a system administrator but i know what i need to run ts3 and samp game servers.

What?? In real life it's innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around. Also, it's the court that decides whether you're guilty or not, not the police.

No, you don;t know how to manage a vps. Realise that for last!!!
Managing a vps is not only doing an auto install of an O/S, do an update and .sh install teamspeaker. It is like buyng a car without a license, knowing just how to turn the key and start the engine. This is not giving you skills on how to drive it.
Managing an unmanaged server means a lot lot lot more than buying a vps and installing teamspeaker on it.
And it is dissapointing that you do it for years (as you say) but you still haven't learn anything about securing the server...
I am not a server administrator and I installed my first vps something about 5 years ago. Since then, I am learning day-by-day. In the early days, I had a compromised server. Just put my head down and tried to be better in my next box in terms of security, I didn't go out there bashing the provider...
Even if the car was locked,its possible to Hot Wire the car and play Carmagedon with it.

Sorry for bumping again this thread...
If the Community think's that the steps we have taken are not sufficient, we are ready to give Mr.Rahul his money back.
The steps that was taken in this case:
IP got nullrouted by the OVH auto Anti-Hack system.
We have inspected if the VPS was hacked or not. It was not the case.
We have informed Mr. Rahul.
We take the VPS offline (without to terminate it) for 5 other days just in case he wanted to have backup.
We terminated the VPS.
Regards,
Gregory
He paid for the month, he used the month. I don't think anything has to be done.
@rahulks It's unfortunate that you lost your data, but you should back up early and often, regardless of what provider it is.
I didn't know you as provider, haven't ever use u. But after this thread, you are in my "to try" providers for the next box I will need. You handled the situation fine. Ignore him and go on!
Judging by your other words, you have no knowledge what it takes to make VPS secure. If you don't know how to do that the right way, it's only a matter of time when it happens - server ges compromised in one sense or another.
When you obtain unmanaged service and your server is screwed up, it's your problem, since you haven't taken corresponding measures. If your server joins a botnet or becomes otherwise the source of threat to other devices, it's again your fault and your problem. Read ToS prior to buying and find a security expert if you don't wish to become one.
However, perhaps the sole goal of your thread was taking money back from provider. I expect, there will soon be similar "horror stories" from you about other providers. Which will blacklist you, finally. No one would like to deal with customer that doesn't take responsibility, for which he signed when checked "I agree to the terms of service" and proceeded with order.
Good luck to those providers who would deal with you.
I am having a VPS from MisterHost since last 1 and half months ( 1 GB yearly deal) and didn't face any issue till now. Performance is really nice and real value for the money paid. It seems the issue happened as the VPS was not secured by the client so the provider cannot be blamed.
Also it is responsibility for the client to check and reply to any email in time which was not the case here.
LOL no. It was a sarcastic message. Apparently it was missed. HA.
Thank you @jvnadr for the kind words. You are welcome at anytime. Will give you a free month in any service you are interested to see that we offer quality services.
@praveen we are glad to have customers like you. Thank you for the great words.
Thank you everyone.
