My site has been hacked, what do I do?


Not been around in the freebies scene for a while and I have just checked my website and noticed that it has been hacked by some weirdo.

check here: www.free-consoles.com

Seems like he's done it to a few people judging from his tweets on twitter.

Anyone know if there's anything I can do or the quickest way to get my site back up?

cheers.

Hmm, this is worrying. I have no idea what you can do. Have you tried reuploading the site content?

First thing i would do is report his twitter account for promoting hacking and hope it get's pulled down, that would annoy him.

Secondly, see who accessed your server and look into that.

Thirdly, see if you have any back-ups of your site with your host or offline.

If not, then go here:

Free Consoles - Claim A Free PS3, Free Xbox 360 Or Free Wii Now!

See your old site and rip it and then re-upload it and job done.

Not sure if annoying him will help in the long run.

He won't know who (if) somebody reports him as it's anonymous and he has hacked several sites so it's not like he was one person to turn to.

Notify your host too - change password (mix it with upper/lower case and use a few numbers in it too), reupload site and report his twitter

Make sure your not using any dodgy plugins or scripts which may have backdoors in.

If he spent as much time working on referrals as he did hacking sites he'd probably have his free console by now.

to state the obvious i would suggest that no one follows him if you have your website in / on / posted on your twitter.

pretty obvious, but worth mentioning.

Was going to follow him earlier, then had the exact same thought!

Did you set your file settings to 777 ? i.e Can be written globally? If so you need to change that ASAP.

If you have a script that allows users to upload files, change that as people can upload scripts that change your files

Edit: Time for another operation: "eXceem community reports the bad people on the internet"

1st http://en.wordpress.com/abuse/ his blog is :- http://sncopedotcom.wordpress.com/

2nd think of a new operation name.

Cheers for all the help guys. Tried logging in to my cpanel to have a look around but the site is requesting I change my password and I can't seem to remember my old one, so i'm just hoping that guy hasn't changed it!

Will look in to it further on my day off.

My backlinking work obviously worked well as it still ranks no. 1 for free consoles in google lol.
