The DNE site for sure is a scam -_- I ordered some PO on the 27th they emailed me twice the same day saying my account didnt go through so we called the number provided on the email which is the same as the number on the dne website and we confirmed the order number and the card number. They said it went through. We called them back on the 28th by the way, the following day of the email. Today we get a call from our bank about some purchases and someone has been using our card since the 28th! Buying 150 dollar shoes, pizza hut, and all sort of crap -_- a bunch of purchases made til today! And my order isnt on site or as one of the purchases. I hope they take care of this soon cause we will file charges -_-

I've used them in the past for other supplements and was satisfied with their service and products.

I have no definite proof but I did receive an e-mail (since our e-mail addresses were posted in the thread on the hacker site along with our credit card numbers, I have a printed copy of that thread) from someone who claimed to also be a victim. Apparently this person had been able to narrow down their own usage of their card and traced it back to a purchase they had made at dne. I also made a purchase at dne on feb 29th, which was in the time period that the e-mail claimed that card numbers had been stolen. The one thread that each of us seem to have in common is a purchase at dne before our cards were used to buy pizza and iphones. Here is the text of the e-mail that i received:
(I have removed personally identifying info)
(if you notice the person sending the e-mail claims that dne acknowledged knowing about the problem)
To All,
I am writing because it seems we have all been hacked. All purchases made on the https://dnevitamins.com/ website from February 27, 2008 to March 2, 2008 were hacked and everyone on this email's personal information (this includes your ADDRESS, FULL NAME, EMAIL ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD USED FOR THE PURCHASE ALONG WITH THE EXPIRATION DATE AND THREE DIGIT SECURITY CODE) is posted on a hacker site.
I am writing everyone because I was made aware of this just today by a good Samaritan who emailed me and let me know. Sure enough I visited the website and had to register as a member to view the forum thread. After much research, I narrowed down the transaction and the site I made the purchase from. I contacted DNE this evening to be told that they were aware of the security compromise and that I needed to contact someone named MichelleR@DNEPharm.com. She was not available at the time I called. She can be reached at the email address I just listed or at DNE Customer Service during normal business hours. The number is 1-800-221-1833. I am upset that DNE knew about this, yet failed to contact their customers to let them know. I am certain some sort of legal action can be taken against them if any of you have fraudulent charges on your credit cards.
In the meantime, all of our information is available for everyone to see. If you have had fraudulent transactions on your cards you probably already know about this. Luckily, my credit card company contacted me to verify a purchase that was not mine and I reported my card stolen. If you have not already, I suggest you call your credit card company used for the transaction and have it declared stolen. Also, contact this "Michelle R" at DNE for an explanation of why they are not protecting their customer's information.

Sorry to all admins and to all peoples here... I didn't be on this forum because I got some problems with AIO Forum! I can't load page correctly with mozilla ! But that is no problem at the same time! Now i want to share some credit cards! Don't tell this no work because some of credit cards are declined by BANK!
So lets start! Say THANKS or Reply to see credit cards !
GO TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT AND CLICK THANKS...this reveals all of the credit card information. You may want to print it in case you want to take legal action. I am contacting the authorities as we speak and the local television station as well.
Again, This is not a HOAX email, I am a victim as all of you are. Some may be unaware. I am taking it upon myself to all of you know because someone was kind enough to tell me.
Thank you for your time,
Sincerely,

I did contact the michelle person and got this response:
Dear ****,

All orders placed online through DNEVitamins.com are via a secure server using (GeoTrust) SSL 128-Bit security technology. At no time during the order process is your information viewable to unauthorized personnel. We assure you that we were not aware that your personal information was posted on an illegal website. For your security, we do not even house your online orders on site. We have contacted our internet provider, and steps are being taken as I write to you to ensure our site’s security. Thank you for bringing this important matter to our attention. We hope that this experience will not influence your decision to shop with us in the future.

SSL only protects the data being transmitted back and forth from your web browser, it does nothing for data at rest on a server. Also, the claim about housing order data may be technically true that they don't house it "on site", but it has to be housed somewhere, and I suspect that is where the security breach occurred.
Anyway, that is my .02 on the matter, and we may never know conclusively that it was dne, but dne seems to be the common denominator.

Also, as far as DNE being a scam I have placed two orders with them and both times received my orders promptly. It was unfortunate that my first order resulted in a credit card theft. I placed a subsequent order before I was aware that they may possibly have an unsecured server, so I am now watching that card very carefully.

Your report was talking of a problem between 27 Feb and 2 Mar, but the impression I got from the first message in this thread is that the 27th May was referred to, not 27th Feb. Unless I read it wrong?

I just reposted the e-mail that I received. I have no idea of what the actual exposure dates were. I did make an order to dne on feb 29th, and that CC# was stolen. But as I posted I made a subsequent order to dne several weeks later using a different CC# that was outside of the dates posted and that CC number was stolen again. Coincidence? I dunno.

Wow.....I had no idea what was happening...
I ordered something awhile back....I cant even recall when now...around the first of the year.
I should check this out. I havent had any problems though,although,my card had a odd charge for Itunes in CA...for 100 dollars;but,it was remedied within the same day,it was changed in the statement.
So,wow...Im scared about this now that Ive seen what y'all are writing.
Please believe me....they are a good company,I got my P.O. very quickly and I had no problems,they send me huge glossy catalogs all the time now also....not that that means anything really;but,I'm just tryinmg to make a point that they are legitamate,..albeit irreponsible as heck.
This really sucks.
I hope everyone gets a good resolution to the problem. ^_^
