Since the final piece of evidence has fallen into place (official word from FrozenCPU), I will probably be unsubbing this thread. Unless FrozenCPU suddenly reopens under new management or begins fufilling orders again, I'll no longer be updating the OP either. I've received quite a few PM's wishing the employees the best and I can assure you I'll forward them to all of my coworkers. Please do not PM me about purchasing FrozenCPU or starting your own store - do your own research.

I'm not opposed to locking this thread, in fact I'd prefer it, however I'd rather it doesn't disappear completely. I'll leave the decision up to the forum moderators.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to share their input in this thread. Similarly, thanks to all the mods who kept this thread clean and professional. It was a dream come true being able to share the truth with all of you, and in the process you've all got me hooked on OCN again!

Stuck with credit card procedures 'till mid-March on my side. They're only reachable through a toll-free number or a tiny 1000 character text box.

Sounds like my last message became victim of TL;DR.

I contacted their eCommerce service provider yesterday and they told me they cut non-credit card payments to FCPU on Friday when learning about the situation (it took a while before they learned about it).
Why? They were sure that credit card payments weren't captured before the orders were shipped, but this is not the case.

They planned to completely shut off ordering and I believe that this is when the message appeared on FCPU's home page.

I haven't confirmed with them yet, but my guess is that they, as a 3rd party, posted the notice on the home page. Now, tinkering with a customers' website remains a delicate situation. Mark owns/rents the server and software.

Wait, one last matter of FCPU business. heat sink factory.com is also owned by FCPU, and should also be avoided until further notice.

(this might have been mentioned in the 150 pgs of this thread, but just in case, i want to put that out there. Good luck everyone.

Really... Now that one is 100% hosted on Yahoo... I think we'll have much less luck contacting a service provider.

EDIT: Contacted Yahoo Small Businesses.

To everyone who put an order in and are waiting.

All you have to do is call your credit card company up, tell them to cancel that payment or put a dispute on it. After that the CC company will try and get ahold of FCPU, and the burden of proof that the transaction was complete will fall on them. Obviously they won't be able to get ahold of them there so after a set period of time (maybe a week or two) the dispute will default in your favor.

Once you dispute a CC transaction the burden of proof is on the business that accepted the transaction so as long as you actually call your CC and do it, you will get your money back.
