Are you sure it's not scam? Maybe some "hacker" is taking revenge on scam sites?

Palmbux now is back with different admin and they are still paying. I think it's better than before although I am paid by the previous admin but there's a lot of complained before compared to the status of the site recently. I am almost reach my minimum payout now, hope I can make it while the site still paying so that I won't loss my time and effort.

When I tried to login just now I was glad to see that they are back with a new home page design. But when I entered my username and password I got this error message saying that 'we cannot find an account with those details'. Oh no, what is happening? I suddenly don't have an account with them when I just requested for my first payment. It is so disappointing. I hope it was just a glitch.

Well, yes yesterday the site is normal already. It back to version 2 ( CMIIW), but now the site is error again. Most people cannot login into their account because it seem the user database is error. Ijust hope it recover soon or else many people will run away from it and started charging back to paypal.

from wikipedia A denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) or distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a computer resource unavailable to its intended users. Although the means to carry out, motives for, and targets of a DoS attack may vary, it generally consists of the concerted efforts of a person or people to prevent an Internet site or service from functioning efficiently or at all, temporarily or indefinitely. Perpetrators of DoS attacks typically target sites or services hosted on high-profile web servers such as banks, credit card payment gateways, and even root nameservers. hope that help friends
