Someone using email accounts at htpvn.net
is bombarding us with Account Activation requests using several different stolen credit card numbers. Several of the credit card owners (when we call) are unaware that their credit card information (billing address and phone number included) have been stolen/compromised.

Hopefully by sharing the domain above, which is being used to setup several simple email accounts used in these fraudulant attempts, we have saved someone some grief.

We hope everyone is doing well.

Make sure to notify the Attorney Generals Office in your area about this as well. Their computer crim unit might be interested. O know ours would be.
