Here I am on a cruise and on Vacation; using satellite Internet at 40 cents per minute and and about 12 kb/s. and someone decided that this week was a good time to launch a series of attacks on the seoblackhat.com

It started off Wednesday with a series of email attacks and turned into various DoS attacks later at night.

Good times. Good times.

Maybe this type of post is a bad idea because it gives the attacker some attention? I really don’t know.

Perhaps it’s because of some of the methods that are discussed and revealed on the SEO Black Hat Private forum? Maybe someone is unhappy about new competition or dilution of a method?

It’s really hard to say what the motive was.

We will, of course, do our best to track down whoever is involved and file a report with the FBI cyber crimes division or the local authorities of whomever we discover. Perhaps they won’t leave any trace, but if they do we will of course do our best to make the attacker face stiff finds and time in prison.

So, friends of SEO Black hat, keep you eyes and ears open for any bravado about this incident.

and Thank you again for your continued support and patience.
