Isisombululo esikhethiwe

This is a fake email from a copycat, and is being sent out in bulk. Do not pay. There is no evidence of this "Lizard Squad" following through on their threats. For more information, click here. Please note that this is the Firefox Support forums and that you should contact your hosting company in the case of this happening again. I would recommend that you look in to proactive protection, even if there is no threat, depending on what your site/company does.
