Online bingo suppliers Thomas and Anca have been listed by Google as dangerous and a potential risk to customers visiting the site. Visiting the online site could result in your computer becoming infected and it is for this reason browsers such as Mozilla have today blocked the site from users and Google have made the situation clear to the public on its search engine. This will be a big embarrassment for the online bingo supplier that captures customers details and allows customers to purchase goods using credit cards. In fact if left unresolved, the damage to the reputation could lead to company being unable to recover in the long term. The fact that the site is linked to FOUR dangerous TROJANS, and Google reported TWO exploit attempts, one of which was successful shows the scale of the threat. The majority of the online bingo industry take great to ensure the protection of their visitors and customers through the use of anti-hacking software, secure servers and encryption and this is the first case we have seen with a legitimate website operating within the bingo market being blocked. While there is no suggestion that the owners of the website are to blame, and there is a good chance through the lack of emphasie on security their site has been hacked, it is a real threat to customers. More than 24 hours on the owners have been unable to resolve the security threats. Google report What is the current listing status for www.thomasandanca.co.uk?
