Someone Is Trying to Scam Our WooCommerce Shop

This morning I woke up to 1000 new orders from my website!

1000 orders is great unless they all fail!

Sounds great except they all were for $1 and they all failed. Clearly this was a hacker/scammer situation. Turns out they were in the Philippines.

Hackers are so ridiculous. As a design company, we’ve had to endure the graphic design scam for years and since we have our own store, we evidently need to worry about hackers or scammers trying to use our store to see which of their stolen credit cards work.

Note to hackers/scammers: we run legitimate software here and have some of the best security you can find online. It’s not going to work, it’s just going to waste my time cleaning up after you.

Are you a designer or store owner who’s seen this too? What did you do about it? Comment below.
