A massive DDOS attack was done recently on Nowdollar, Autosurfingpros, Alertpaypro and ASA ... it is likely from this same group of criminals. This was posted by Lance, admin of Nowdollar at the forum in ASA and he is calling the bluff off these criminals:

Here is the thing,
I know that all good autosurf programs (like yours) make a great proffit, and we all know that you\'ll go out of business some day, only question is \'When?\'. That will happen in next few days/weeks, if you don\'t do what we want from you. You will send us exactly 300$ to this e-gold account: http://2740602.e-gold.com/ or we will run ddos attack against your server during this week, or even month, starting 2 days from now. So, you have only 48h to respond to this (then you\'ll get instructions where to send money). Also, you may find yourself marked like \"Not paying\" on autosurf monitor sites, we can make that possible too, trust me. Don\'t post contents of this email to forums or something like that, otherwise we will be forced to do something we don\'t want to...
We can tell you, in short lines, what is going to happen and what is the scenario: - We will ddos your site a couple of days (3-4) and it will be down for all of your users, Be sure that there is no DoS protection that an assure your safety, if we were able to shutdown 12daily pro we can shutdown you to ! - After that period we\'ll stop ddosing and that is when real problems come - Because of your site downtime, users will get the idea that you\'re cheating team - They will request immediate payments, but you will not have enough money for all of them
If it is necessary, we\'ll ddos your site even more days after that, which will lead in total destruction of your business Imagine how much your competitors will be ready to pay for something like that?
