Primedice domain got hijacked again?
It's back to normal, as far as I can see. I just used the bookmarked page of PD and found myself on the site without having to log in even. This issue is currently discussed on PD forum here:
https://forum.primedice.com/topic/34851-new-login-page-primedice/I'm wondering whether I should change my password though, after seeing the post quoted below?
I would still suggest updating your password, since we don't yet know what information the hackers could have obtained.
I think I shouldn't, since I haven't provided the hackers with my login credentials, right?
You are safe if you have not logged, as it was a PISHING attempt.
I haven't heard from primedice themselves, I would change my password anyway if I were you, if the hackers could hijack the domain for a 2nd time it means the site owners and/or devs haven't learned from the last time and to much personal info needed to hijack a domain seems to be available for hackers.
For all we know they could have had access to the database and back-end of the site....
Server's Machine is different from Domain.
They could only get access to the database if somehow they got Server's Credentials (FTP or any other forms to log into the machine)
So there's no way for them to get into database just by hacking the domain.

Due to a small security breach, the withdrawals are put on hold and are being manually processed for the time being. Everything should be back to normal within next several hours.
We are working on solving the issue. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this and thank you for the patience!To hijack a domain they need some personal info about PD's registar, info for the hosting services isn't much different, if this info is out on the streets and it's already the 2nd time it's hijacked within a year I don't trust anything involving my personal data on primedice's site.
