Dell.com just got hacked

[caspur]

Its all over slickdeals. First it was the hard drives, which got shut down.

Now look at this:

http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/c...904f0fp0c0s558

Check out those quad core xeons for like 60 bucks. (not to mention all the cheap dual core xeons)

Will be hilarious for the people who order a Xeon for that price knowing the sites been hacked. Then go on to throw a total bitch when Dell doesn't honor the price "but they have to give it to me for 50 bucks FUCK DELL I'm going to sue them if they don't!"

The internet is full of asshats like that.

In for -

Xeon L5430 2.66 GHz Quad Core Second Processor for Dell PowerEdge 1950/ 2950 III/ M600 Server $10.99

That's the best deal w/ OCing

 

[nukleuz]

I know they won't honor any purchases

 

[caspur]

The weird thing is that they have legit prices in there. There is a Sempron that is priced about right, but you've got Nehalems for 70 bucks. Its insane.

i predict a WXC (wounded Xenon Child) thread soon

 

[RESmonkey]

Ouch. The asshats who order knowing it's hacked are stupid; who knows where their CC info goes after the site has been compromised?

 

[Zebo]

Bought using Paypal, hope it goes through.

This..

i wouldn't order anything giving legit info.. if the site is compromised, the order entry database might be as well.. giving hackers free access to your CC info.

why when I click you link it goes to detonator.dynamitedata.com first? Seems shady.

Also:http://in.news.yahoo.com/210/20091216/1482/tbs-reports-dell-to-lay-off-700-workers.html

They announced yesterday they are laying off 700 workers. Maybe that explains the havoc.

Dell:

"Oh so those 700 people were DOING something OHHHH now it all makes sense"

People who knowingly enter their credit card info unto a hacked site take one hell of a risk to save some money on hardware with fraudulent listed prices.

Edit: beaten by RESmonkey.

If they really hid it in hot deals it isn't my fault for not knowing. No one uses that sad remanent of a once powerful but now long forgotten forum.

it was in Hot Deals, Free Stuff, Technical Forum Issues, Personal Forum issues .. just about any forum, except Off Topic.

You rang?

 

[CRXican]

how about some 24" monitors?

I used non CC PP and all they can do is say no which is virtually 100% certainty but you never know.

 

[shortylickens]

- = COMPLETELY OFF TOPIC! = -

I keep browsing the dell outlet page, and their prices & selection sucks. Is it true people run automated scripts to suck up the good deals as soon as they are posted?
If thats the situation, how the fuck are regular folks supposed to get a bargain?

No, no, mandatory "take pics of the site and host them before the site is restored to normal operating condition!" :whiste:
