Open letter from FLOGmall
FLOGmall teamDear friends and colleagues. This is an official open letter from the FLOGmall team!
As you probably know, today, on February 22 at 14:00 Moscow time, we started pre-ICO.
From the first minutes of launch, the attackers attempted to hack into our site and the personal accounts of our users, and then started a DDoS attack and so-called phishing (substitution of wallet in the personal account).
Of course, this situation has become an unpleasant surprise for us because we have been preparing for this today for months ...
Nevertheless, thanks to the quick actions by our developers, we quickly realized the whole situation and closed personal accounts, so that our users would not be the object of a fraud. That's why, for a while you could see the inaccessibility of the flogmall.com official site.
After the deep analysis of the situation ,we found out that a certain hacker who organized the hacking of FLOGmall seems to be doing this very professionally, since having looked at his wallet through https://etherscan.io/ we found that to date the balance of his wallet has got the sum of more than 1 BILLION US dollars:

On the one hand, we are slightly flattered by the fact that serious and experienced hackers paid attention to our project, estimating the scale and potential of the project:)
On the other hand, the current situation is itself not that much pleasant, since we are responsible for the members of our community and the early holders of our tokens!
The practice of hacking of ICO projects is not new and reveals that millions of dollars are stolen from projects in just a few minutes.In our case,thanks to the vigilance of our developers, less than 1 ETH were stolen from us. Ethereum-wallet of frauds is identified, so, of course, the victims of this hacker attack will be charged all MLC tokens and earned bonuses.
About how to get them - below.
Also at the moment, the attackers are actively searching for holes in our smart-contract and attempting to break it (absolutely unsuccessful ones).
What do we do next?
1) The work of the flogmall.com site (and its mirrors) is restored, but the personal account itself is inactive. Work on providing with additional security is in progress.
Thanks to our partners from KickICO, our pre-ICO continues on their platform on this link:

(By the way, taking part in our ICO through KickICO when paying with ETH, each Baker receives + 5% of the deposit and when paying with KICK tokens , it is + 10%.). All bonuses are summed up, about this further.
Important:
To create an account on KickICO, use the same email you have used for your personal account registration on FLOGmall.
We created a detailed manual instruction that explains how to follow the whole procedure of tokens purchasing on KickICO.
Pay attention:
When purchasing MLC tokens, check the addresses to which you send Ethereum and Kickcoin. Current addresses are available on the KickICO platform. Also, follow the instructions on KickICO carefully when sending Ethereum (gas limit: 200000).
About security:
