Member-only story
Been hacked? I have.
Taking on ALL the roles as tech support for my wife’s LLC can be a harrowing experience.
Being a pro coder, there is no shortage of questions that come my way when people “learn” what I do. The question I always want to know is, why are at least HALF of them all about tech support?!?
Whelp I guess it was prone to happen sooner or later.
My wife’s website which undergirds her publishing business gots HACKED.
The website was offline. I tried to get in. I couldn’t. I pinged tech support. They came back and told me the server was humming right along. I said “no it’s not.” They ran a scan. And…
Okay, I guess I’ve been LARPing as tech support long enough that the Good Lord has decided to serve me a dose of humility. Noted!
Time to get cracking, ehh?
Fun fact: I actually have five websites hosted on this server. They’re ALL offline. Alas, only one of them is the basis for my wife’s publishing business so I already know which one to focus on first.
