I was just checking my spam folder and came across a message from Alex Tew of Million Dollar Homepage fame. He’s the guy that sold pixels on his site and raised $1,037,100 for college in less than five months.
Anyhow, it seems the site was taken down for six days by a Denial of Service (DoS) Attack “by hackers who tried to extort $50,000” from Tew.
Could it be a digital mafia trying to shake down this crafty and innovative marketer, or another clever attention grab?
