i would suggest protecting your paysites better to avoid this type of shit.

Granted you are right and most experienced paysite owners do take the neccessary steps to protect themselves.
The issue here early in these posts though was the fact that the sites in question are hosted by the same company that is one of the largest billing companies in this business. For webmasters like myself that have done 100's of thousands of dollars in business with them we look at this as being a very serious.
I went to passwordforum.com and a number of the sites listed on there are CWIE/CCBill customers. To have the company that does your hosting and/or billing in essence provide a forum for this activity is wrong and should not be permitted by them.
I have already received a reply to my email that I sent to them, they have told me that "(they will) look into legal/contractual issues and what our course of action to take"
I have been doing business with CWIE/CCBill for over 3 years and I know from my past history with the company that they will address this matter. I expect that I will hear back from them again tommorrow when the upper managment staff will be there.
Now I am sure that there are plenty of other hosts which take their business and I know that there are 100's of other password sites out here, but as site owners we do what we can nto only to protect our sites security, but also to make it tougher for the hackers to conduct business out here.
Remember folks this is a business and a lucrative one for many of us. When you conduct yourself in a professional manner you get the results you want.
