Site is offline, shit. Testing through TOR or 'normal access', no results. I hope this to be a technical problem instead of a fraud begins to happen.

Server is now down. It is no longer just a DNS issue.
I am fucking tired of half assed web programmers deciding they can manage websites which are handling millions of dollars worth of value and keep them secure, when companies like Microsoft, and Apple, and the governments of the world can't do it without teams of competent staff.
The evidence is obvious at this point. Persons unknown have decided that btc-arbs.com is a lucrative target. They have attacked that target via DNS spoofing all day long today. That was done to obtain login information.
Now they have attacked the site directly. The site is down. Let us hope that it is not compromised. I don't think the owners are doing anything right now but asking themselves WTF just happened.
We will know when they can sort their issues out.
Now then, if you are going to loose 0.1 BTC or less, just STFU and talk to the hand. That is sheite. Don't clutter the thread bitching about fifty dollars.
Lets figure out what has happened and make the best of it.

The problems we are seeing are DNS related and have NOTHING to do with btc-arbs.com
Except that they may well be someone doing DNS spoofing...

Think people.
If it has been on and off, that is pretty much a guarantee they are not absconding with your coin. If they were, why not just shut it down? Why down, then up, etc. I was bit suspicious of them myself, but took the risk with 0.05 coin. I have withdrawn 0.1 back, and have 0.1 invested, so I've become more trusting of them.
Perhaps the plan is to steal coin at some point, but it makes no sense that would have anything to do with the current issue.

Hostgator has been having on and off problems all day affecting a lot of the internet. My guess is it's related to that.

I think it would be wise to wait 24 hours before crying wolf

Was able to get in just fine earlier tonight.

it's not the site it's the name servers.
NS1.WEBKEVLAR.NET and NS2.WEBKEVLAR.NET are mentioned in the whois records. and they are both down.

I was just about to send in after watching this thread for weeks. I think I'll hold off.

Heh I always suspected this site would go sooner or later. If it comes back online I'd be suprised. I constantly shaved off the top of my earnings every week and keep only kept the minimum in until a couple weeks ago I pulled it all out. At some point this site was going to bail.

I held off at first sent some BTC there 3 weeks ago. I have "gained" a little over .3 BTC. So we will see if i get it back.

It was on and off this afternoon. now it is just offline for me.
it's off for me. I put in 0.4 BTC. this is very troubling
I am trying not to jump to conclusions but coming here does not help. I was thinking of pulling my money out a few days ago when Doge was still around 90 sat. opps

that is the ip for the mail.btc-arbs.com and login is not working
April 16, 2014, 05:06:09 PM
It looks like the problem is with DNS. The site is still up, but you need to use the actual ip: 111.90.150.219
Yes, you can breathe that sigh of relief and thank me later

Working now
April 16, 2014, 04:36:15 PM
Works little bit slowly but works ( Finland )
April 16, 2014, 04:30:27 PM
work fine here
Country? USA here, no go.
I just tried it through TOR and it works!!! weird! relieved
No luck through TOR here...
At this very moment I am able to login from USA (normal internet, no VPN/TOR/etc) and I have submitted a withdrawl request. We'll see in 36hrs if I get my BTC back and if the site is still around lol. Honestly they have been around a while they seem legit but its just too good to be true and this lil brush up with not being able to login is just rubbin me the wrong way, im out!
