    @bytehx343 @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap That makes no sense. Surely if NameCheap had their infrastructure setup correctly with the proper measures in place these emails would not have even got off the ground, regardless of if there was an issue with a third party?

    @TonyNames @Namecheap Unfortunately, due to a system glitch, in rare cases, domains appear on the auction again. But it's impossible to purchase them of course. The issue is being fixed right now. I'm sorry for the inconvenience that you've faced.

    @Namecheap worst company ever and has pathetic customer support service. My issue is not resolved yet. I spent over chat approx 8 hrs. Their agent told me it'll be resolved after few hours but after 72 hours the issue is the same.

  • c3_trading CoinCodeCap Trading (@c3_trading) reported

    8. The major problem with sending unwanted emails, though, is still being looked at. Investors dealing with messages from MetaMask and NameCheap are recommended to double-check website links, email addresses, and points of contact.🧵

    @h4x0r_dz I saw that too. Got an email, it was from Namecheap service too. Apparently a 3rd party service they used was exploited.
