Serisously, so like this site who i am not going to name or give the address to, is moving their server, or something. Anyway their webroot lacks a index file. Guess what else is inside their web root.
If you guesed backups of their database you would be correct. Now every joe schmoe probably has my email address, and all other information that the vBulletin database store, and can/will use it to spam or whatever else. Top that off with they left their advertisment database there to, probably contains some CC # or other payment information. I'd imagine every visitor to their site, now has a copy of their database and all the information it contained from hidden forums, private messages..freaking everything :lol:
Sucks to be them. /rant
cliff notes:
Guys moving server -> leaves db backup in webroot -> anyone can download it and restore...
If any financial data has been left there you should contact the FBI or relevant authority.
