According to this thread, and a linked thread, 1mhost will ask for a scan of your credit card when you sign up, and will also abuse your credit card. It also happens with PayPal accounts...no one is safe!!
So the person that is supposedly hosted with them...will they please step forward? So that we can prove/disprove the suggestion

Oh my god, what a scam...thank god I didn't go with them, they actually use your credit cards to buy domains for themselves... Their prices looked too good to be true anyway...wouldn't have gone with them in the first place.

Well, I do have a client whom was hosted by them before.

When this client approached us, she actually requested paying
us cash. Since she is able to make internet banking transfer, we
accept her. But now she is paying throug paypal to us on a recurring basis.

We do not even collect credit card number. This is not safe and we do not wish to be accused as well.

In the past, my personally experience, I do happen to have such incident before. My credit card has been charged over a thousand dollars.

Hence, I never sign up any company, regardless whether they are hosting company, if the request for credit card number in their clients script.

So, do take note on this.

I've been ripped off by giving credit card info to 1mhost.com.
They used my credit card all over the Internet using my name and address so all purchases looked legit.
