ComShares is Offline for Maintenance. The reason: harassment by hackers. There will be no trades while we're offline. We'll be back online as soon as we've sorted things out and made a few system changes. |

ComShares is Offline for Maintenance. On April 6 and 7, a hacker or hackers, the same one(s) who targetted CS in February, used an automated process to create many thousands of bogus new user accounts. If you saw unexpected new referrals on your personal pages, that's where they came from. We went offline to halt the ongoing creation of additional false accounts, and to clean up the mess the hacker(s) had left. We decided to turn this unplanned disruption into an opportunity. Several major enhancements for ComShares were already in the works. We're using the offline time to implement those. There will be no trades while we're offline. When CS comes back online, trading will resume 5 days per week. We appreciate your patience and understanding. |

April 17: Yes, we are still here and we are still working. We're doing our best to be back in full operation, Monday if at all possible, Tuesday or Wednesday otherwise. To the many ones who are quietly, patiently waiting: Thank you. :-) |

April 21: Almost there. :-) But the need for sleep just caught up with the head programmer. He advises we should be able to reopen within the next 24 hours. |
Can't resist checking every day ![]() |
| April 22: "Beta testing" the new changes now; one more day. |
