Hello, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask this but I honestly don’t know where else to turn to. I’ve been using freeimage host for nearly 2 years now, migrating from imgur because of how dog shit the latter has become. But just this morning my freeimage host account seems to have been either deleted or wiped clean, I’m not sure. This is because when I chose the log in with Google option, it just creates a fresh new account. So I then back out and used the log in with username and password instead, which then gave me a “access denied or link has expired” notice. I use this account for posting comics that I translate and also some school homework so most of the albums are privated for me but there are like one or two that are set to public, but even when I click the direct link to those public albums the site still gave me a “page doesn’t exist” window. The weird thing is that account was still accessible just yesterday night so basically this happened after I turned my laptop back on, though there was a chrome update so I don’t know if that has anything to do with. A weird thing is that the three images that I uploaded yesterday is also still viewable but pretty much every other ones currently opened in different tabs now show a “404 image not found”. I have sent their CS an email but it really doesn’t instill me with confidence I’ll hear back from them, their subreddit hasn’t been active since like 5 years ago also doesn’t help. Please, any help or just suggestion is greatly appreciated. I still have all those images saved on my local hard drive so not like anything is lost, but it’s still like 2000+ images that I now have to sort through and reorganize again, not to mention not knowing if something like this could potentially happen again. Thank you in advance. submitted by /u/CarltheCarpenter [link] [comments]

I spent the last few days trying to report a very obvious scam website that was hosted by Hostinger, and I’m still blown away by how difficult they made it. I sent them everything: screenshots, documents, URLs, the whole story. Instead of acting, they kept asking me for the same information over and over, like nobody was actually reading anything. Every time I tried to escalate, they pushed me back to the same team that wasn’t doing anything. Then came the template emails. I got multiple messages saying the site “has been suspended,” but the site was still fully online. When I pointed that out, they suddenly acted like they didn’t know which URL I was talking about, even though it was in every message. The wildest part? They told me to contact them from the scammer’s email address. I still can’t wrap my head around that one. Meanwhile, their public replies on review sites made it look like I wasn’t giving them enough information, while privately they were contradicting themselves and stalling. The only moment things suddenly changed was when they noticed that one of my earlier emails had an ICANN address in the BCC field. I hadn’t even submitted a formal complaint yet. But the tone changed instantly, and shortly after that, the domain was finally put on hold and the site went offline. It’s honestly ridiculous that it took this much effort. Most people would have given up long before that point. And that’s what worries me — how many scam sites stay online simply because the reporter doesn’t have the energy to fight through this mess? Hostinger loves bragging about becoming “one of the biggest hosting companies.” After this experience, I can see why. If you host every scammer under the sun and make it nearly impossible for people to get them taken down, your numbers grow fast. I’m relieved the scam site is finally down, but the process was unacceptable from start to finish. I expected a hosting provider to take fraud seriously. Instead, it felt like I had to drag them to the finish line. submitted by /u/GuessSuitable7711 [link] [comments]
