***** WHMCS breached. *****

This only concerns WHMCS so unless your a client ie own a WHMCS license it doesn't affect you.

Unfortunately today we were the victim of a malicious social engineering attack which has resulted in our server being accessed, and our database being compromised.

To clarify, this was no hack of the WHMCS software itself, nor a hack of our server. It was through social engineering that the login details were obtained.

As a result of this, we recommend that everybody change any passwords that they have ever used for our client area, or provided via support ticket to us, immediately.

This is just a very brief email to alert you of the situation, as we are currently working very hard to ensure everything is back online & functioning correctly, and I will be writing to you again shortly.

We would like to offer our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. We appreciate your support, now more than ever in this challenging time.

It could.

If your host submitted login details in a support ticket to WHMCS then it is possible for the hacker to access your hosts WHMCS installation and thus see all the client details.

Oh please. You're just scaremongering. This is an issue that affects the clients of WHMCS not every client of a host who uses the same billing system.

Any host worth it's salt if they feel there customers details are compromised will be issuing there own emails but as it stands unless you own a WHMCS license or hear from the company you host with this is a non issue.
