hello :)

Plz check this message.

hello. your site has been targeted by our team, so we will be running a DDoS attack from now on.

However, the DDoS attack will stop as soon as you send 5000
USDT to THfZ1itJVSoaYwYzLQ7WAeLbbJd6puP7bN trc20.

Alternatively, another option to stop the DDoS attack is to become our client by paying us a certain amount of money to attack your competitors.

and our site is down.

Please tell me, how to deal with this issue?

thanks

Are you using Cloudflare?

If you use cloudflare proxy - that alone should mitigate these risks by 75-85%

Simply ignore it. It's a fake message to scare people and to get money from them. Just install and configure Cloudflare, and make sure your website files are up-to-date. If you're on WordPress, I can help you free of charge.

Have a nice week ahead!

Cloudflare free plan is mostly sufficient for small businesses. If you are an enterprise- there obviously are other dns services that takes care of DDOS attacks even better :)

Exactly this.

Let us know if you face issues after Cloudflare is configured and enforced on your website.

You are using A2 hosting and your public IPV4 is visible directly to the internet. Use Cloudflare as your DNS provider instead for free and use the orange cloud to proxy your webserver requests. That would take care of it.

You can also take help from @TheMarquis as quoted above.

if it is a serious attack Cloudflare is useless

When you say serious attack? Small businesses dont get attacked that seriously. People just try to take advantage of technical jargons and do minimal attacks and try to scam out money. For those - Id say Cloudflare is more than enough. If its a serious threat actor and an enormous payload and distributed across thousands of endpoints- yes it will render cloudflare free ddos useless.
Those are very rarely done to small business owners usually as they costs thousands of dollars even to run.

Adding on to this, you'll want to rotate your IP AFTER adding Cloudflare...
Proxying wont do shit if they know your origin server
 
Agreed. Implement cloudflare and then change your servers IP as well, so they can’t bypass cloudflare. Maybe also you might be able to block the attackers IP addresses or subnet.

I know they’re saying it’s a DDOS attack but it probably is less sufisticated than it sounds; otherwise it would be costing them a lot of money and resources and I don’t think people with those resources would be carrying out this type of attack.

Hopefully you get it sorted but if you need any additional help give me a shout (also free of course).

Thread moved.

True. Agree with @davids355.

Wordfence does help with blocking IPs after few repeated attempts of login if on wordpress.

Just blur your website and direct PM the guy who wanted your help.

I'm not saying to delete your original post. I hope you resolve your problems as soon as possible. Interested to learn more on how this would play out to set precautions for my own websites as well.
 
If you host your site on a strong server you wont need to be worry.
