February 8th, 2025
RE: The incident from clicking on a phishing link from a fake ad agency, leading to a hostile take over of Canadian Prairie Storms on December 12th, 2024.

We have officially Thwarted The Attack and Beat The H@cker.
The news we have been waiting for since December 13th after regaining admin control, arrived this morning. Bonus Performance earnings are finally showing up on our Payouts. More details with screenshots have been posted for Subscribers Only. There are still a few issues to work out but we are 99% there and will close the book on this story right here. We have a lot of work to do yet. Spring 2025 is going to be awesome, again.

thats the bad guy: RE: WOW

Me at 4:30am "No you may not take over again, lol"

still can't post from Meta

this seems to be in a holding account, hope to have it transferred before I run out of smokes lol

V1.2 Canadian Prairie Storms Data Map / Get Ready For January 12th MONSTER SNOWSTORM

 Upgraded the map to V1.2 Canadian Prairie Storms Data Map

Now with crowd sourced suggestions added, text resize adjustment and a few more towns. Sorry Humboldt, you are no longer on the map. Now, back to the weather. The new snowstorm of January 12th continues to show up in the latest 18z GFS forecast model. This time it is more like a spike rather than a monster head however it is still looking like it has good monster storm potential. Should we make a Subscriber's Only Towns Map? Only 4 subs so far should be pretty easy but I can see this getting out of hand in a hurry lol what do you think?

RE: Lost payout account access since December 12, 2024, got it back TODAY!

After waiting the full 48 hours for Meta Financial Tech Support to send an update, thought of trying the Subscriptions option on the business suite. After going through the process multiple times with failures to connect, we found our payout information had the wrong middle name. One more try with the exact information as before and suddenly things connected for the first time in over a month. Payout account is now restored. Bonus Performance has yet to link but it should be, that might be our next call to support. Giving it until Monday to see an email with our earnings from November which is the main missing issue. However, with subscriptions now added and linked to the right account, we can begin promoting this new service of Canadian Prairie Storms and should begin getting paid again. 

Did CPS and JustBins BOTH get attacked at same time?

 The investigation is now underway and I will be going to the CBC and police to file reports once the investigation by Meta Tech Support is complete. Here are some screenshot from a 100+ deep folder I will release them all to the media if Meta does not chose to resolve this matter. IF Meta does resolve it, THEN it can not be internal. It must be external. We will cross off all possible suspects as evidence begins to show the full picture of what happened. Virgin Plus (mobile) had to pay for our phone bill and RBC has yet to return my bank card. Canada Post strike is over now. The rabbit hole runs very deep. They say follow the White Rabbit, that must be the one with all my money. For now, here are the stats since November. The ad agency started phishing at the end of November. The hack, emails from FB stated my payout account was changed by an admin and then my admin was removed. Meta Verified Support returned control of the page within 24 hours and gave me 48 more hours for finance department to fix the final problem. Its has now been 47 hours without any update. We will proceed from here.

Hopefully the last step... Almost got everything back after the hack

 "You are now the finance editor"

I will make a full video of what happened, how to avoid this happening to you and how we recovered once everything is 100% working correctly. There is a new bug on my mobile business app that won't let me post videos when connected to Instagram. Either its Instagram or Meta Business Suite. Going to clear cookies and reboot the phone and hopefully everything will be back.
