Dear 7666,
I am writing to inform you that a malicious file has been uploaded to your file hosting service. I'm currently running a Pastebin-like service for Markdown at https://chanrycz.com/md-paste/ and someone has uploaded the following code (now removed due to abuse):
<redacted>
The raw version of the paste is being accessed very frequently by a Python requests script, and it is causing a significant load on my web server and reducing the quality of service of my website (screenshot of access logs attached below).
I've downloaded the text file (hosted on your file upload service at <redacted>) and scanned it on VirusTotal. It is showing that it is a Trojan (results located at <redacted>). Therefore, I have reason to believe that both our services are being used for malicious purposes.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Ryan C.
