Michael H. Berkens reports:
101Domain.com has apparently suffered a security breach which “may have resulted in unauthorized access to your personal information and possibly payment information.”
According to Webhosting.info, 101domain.com has around 10,000 domain names under management.
Read more on TheDomains.com. From the notification letter:
We are writing to you as a primary contact on your account with 101domain.com. We need to make you aware of a security breach that may potentially have affected your account.
We were recently informed by one of our vendors that some of its systems, and those of a few of its customers, including 101domain.com, were compromised to varying degrees by a phishing attack. Although there is no direct evidence that your information was stolen and we have received no customer complaints, this attack may have resulted in unauthorized access to your personal information and possibly your payment information.
It sounds like although 101Domain.com’s customers are affected, the breach was not theirs but their vendor’s. Or am I reading this incorrectly?
I also read it as a third party in use was popped via phishing. Though they put the data there so it might as well be the 1st party.
