I was just on the Poorboyz store checking my Reasons preorder status and I kept being logged into someone else's account. I don't know how it happened, but it sure makes me think twice before using their online store ever again. Not everyone is as honest as me and would log out right away. And I did send an E-mail to the store about the problem.
 
same was happening to me, although I don't think you can charge something to someones creditcard or change the shipping destination of something ordered. although I did get to see what movies some of you had ordered.
 
wow! you can just make up an email and password and sign in. it says you don't exist and logs you onto someone elses account. so "fast and secure" haha. big issue here.
 
ye ive seen the same thing. it says someone on my account also bought reasons, but i dont know how they could get your credit card information. it is sketchy though.
 
Hmmm, it said I had reasons in my cart when I made up a name, but didn't log me into someone else's account...

When I checked my order though it still said processing. Journal was supposed to ship last friday I thought...
 
Last year when I ordered it wasn't that sketchy but just don't expect your order status to change. One day, you'll receive your package and your order status won't even be "shipped". That's crazy how a bad online store will propably make them lose lots of money.
 
What the fuck? This is so bad, i just went there and clicked my account and it gave me all the info for someone named Robert Hall. They need to fucking fix that...
 
woooow that is fucked! I just tried twice entering random numbers and letters for both email address and password.. and I got logged into two different people's accounts!

I'm gonna email them about this NOW.
 
so anyway fuck ordering any of their videos this season. I'll stick to more legit sites, thank you very much.
 
yeah, what the fuck. I just hit my account and got some kid's named Will James. What's even worse is you can view account information like address and phone number and such. There are even worse things that use while logged in, but I wont mention them here, cause I dont want people to use the information for bad things.

I advise everyone to go in and change your addresses and phone numbers and such to things that arent right to prevent people from fucking with you and potentially stealing your identity possibly? or just using your private information.
 
i just had will james' info as well. and some kid from norway... looks like it's expensive to ship overseas. i shouldn't be able to see that.
 
but if you change your info and your order hasn't shipped, won't that prevent you from getting stuff?
 
haha yeah thats fucked up the same shits happened to me when i tried to track my order. Has anyone gotten journal or reasons yet?
 
haha I had this happen last year and I had eheaths info in it! I didn't dare order a thing after I saw that. So sketchy.
 
Yeah I just logged in and looked at my past orders status, I ordered Yeah Dude 11/20/07 and it says "pending". I got the movie like 11/29/07, but if PBP wants to send me another copy to resolve this issue that would be ok.
 
when i just checked it was fine, i was taken to my account.

but i emailed them to ask why i still dont have reasons yet.

if anyone has ordered reasons from them and recieved it pm me.
 
i hate how if you pre-order multiple movies from their store they wait until they are all out and ship them together. If I pay for three movies in advance I should at least get them when they come out...
 
yeah i was trying to order my triple threat tickets and some dude named

Zack Zagorski from new york was using the website at the same time.

i wrote that in my order's comments box. that the store was tripping me up with his order. they never responded to that comment.
 
not for me. i have a mac and it gave me someones order info under my name and it always seems like its already logged into someones account when i just go to the site.
 
My account says someone bought reasons, 6 boxes of Kleenex, and a jar of Vaseline! And under status it says "sloppy". I am soooo pissed right now!
 


FOR IMMEDIATE PRESS RELEASE

AN OFFICIAL APOLOGY

It has been brought to our attention that the Poor Boyz Store was experiencing a glitch that allowed multiple users to log themselves in simultaneously. Due to overload, names and addresses of those who failed to log themselves off became available for viewing until the next customer logged him or herself of the store. For 14 years the Poor Boyz Store has been secure, and we want to assure our fans that this is the first instance we have had where the integrity of the store has been compromised.

To many fans (and Poor Boyz) it comes as a huge relief that we have been able to fix the store. We would also like to reassure our fans and customers that no credit card information or other banking information has leaked. The glitch occurred in the store website, but did not transfer over to Paypal or Veri-sign, meaning that all payments that have been made are secure, and no one will be charged twice due to this error. We would like to thanks those who brought this to our attention, and most of all, we would like to apologize to those customers who feel that their trust has been lost by Poor Boyz.

It has never been our intention to do anything but make our fans happy, and we realize that due to this glitch, we did not meet our goal this time. We seek to regain our fans' collective trust, as well as re-establish the Poor Boyz name as a reputable and reliable company. We ask those that have been affected in any way by this glitch to please accept our most sincere apologies and look to the future where Poor Boyz will continue to work their hardest to make skiers around the globe happy. We will re-double our efforts to ensure that our customers will be able to invest both faith and finances into our company with no second thoughts. Once again, we owe our fans and customers this apology.

Sincerely,

Poor Boyz Productions
