Dear Client,

We regret you are among the clients currently unable to reach our site. Pinnacle Sports is experiencing a DOS attack which, unfortunately, are becoming more prevalent events in all technology based industries.

Our IT Department is working diligently to resolve the issue and restore access to the site.

Unfortunately, we do not have an estimated time when the site may be reachable.

In the interim, please try this alternative IP address to access the site, 216.152.164.80. Please note that we cannot guarantee it will remain available.

Once the site is restored, please again use www.pinnaclesports.com to access your account.

We sincerely apologize for the interruption on our service.

Kind regards,

Customer Service Department
Pinnacle Sports

Still down for me also, this sucks.

**Chopsticks** · 04-12-11, 05:28 PM

Maybe not post the IP adresses that they give by e-mail as I would imagine the attackers are paying attention.

Does anyone have a link to that story from years back when some guy helped Cris (I think) stop a huge ddos attack? I remember it was a long, good read.

Edit, found it.

http://www.csoonline.com/article/220...tortion-attack if anyone was interested. Very good read and not too techy. I think there is a book about this story too.

**Greekster** · 04-12-11, 05:43 PM

its back up, just made my 4 wagers for the night at the same time just in case the site doesnt hold up.

**realog1** · 04-12-11, 05:49 PM

Still down for me

**the_situation** · 04-12-11, 06:01 PM

back up but lagging hard

**jjgold** · 04-12-11, 06:07 PM

Not Pinnacle's fault

Nothing they can do

I am with Pinnacle and think they have a great sportsbook, but not sure I entirely agree with this. Today its been down all day and lately it has been unstable for very brief periods of time.

They can host their site with hosting providers providing ddos protection,all that won't happen then.paying for that service is better than giving in to these bastards attacking or giving up on business and letting site remains down so long.

They are probably the ones in the first place paying someone in China or Russia to run the hack attack. Just like anti virus people being able to detect new virii so fast.

**DemoralizdDreamr** · 04-12-11, 06:40 PM

They are back down again, horrendous maintenance by pinnacle.

**Scooter** · 04-12-11, 06:42 PM
