Anyone bought cars today?
Itās been a āfunā day, thatās for sureā¦
I drove my wife to pick her car up from service and the dealer told her everything was down. At least the service was completed lol
Yeah itās been a crazy day. We were still able to have people signed, but it took a lot longer than it normally would since everything had to be done by hand like the good old days.
Tried to. GM said his system was down. Now I know why
So out of all the times whenever Iām on the phone with a rep and told their computer is running slow, today was actually ātheā day this was true? SMH.
On a holiday no less
And itās still down.
Still down-fortunately I can esign, e verify identifications, and get limited POAs for most wet docs-
Thereās a recent pattern of attacks on financial systems/software that were designed to align with various US holidays.
Each of these required more than just a few days before these companies returned to normal operations.
I wonder if thereās any connection.

Well if you are a hacking group attacking when most resources on Vacation is a sound strategy. THOUGH, Juneteenth is not a holiday for most, so I think this one just was coincidental.
If this one was intentional, doing it at the End of the Month wouldāve caused more issues.
Donāt give them any ideas.
Lol, the only ones I am giving those ideas to are the uninformed, real hackers know this and a lot more complex ways.
A company I worked for was hit by a ransomware attack on New Years Eve night. Timing was impeccable and we were down for nearly 2 weeks as they really got a hold of a lot
I think your system is down by other type of hackrs!
at long as their espresso machine is still working in the lounge ā¦
Had my 4Runner in for service yesterday and they couldnāt do anything. The women told me it was a hack and they are holding the system ransom. (Grain of salt)
I thought it was just Toyota, didnāt realize it was the actual software itself.
15,000 dealers nationwide. Sales and service, and cdk says it may be days.

The dealer I service at said they switched to CDK within the past year when I texted a friend whoās a manager there and he said itās proven to be their worst decision ever. He said itās been hell the past two days but they somehow had a good day yesterday as far as taking deposits to do deals once CDK is back up.
Honestly this is a good time to short all of the big publics like Asbury. They all use CDK and this will cost them millions.
3 more hackr deals with cdk down. Contracted and delivered. Yāall are amazing
