New ask Hacker News story: My Experience with MicroAcquire
My Experience with MicroAcquire
4 by cpncrunch | 3 comments on Hacker News.
I decided to list my business for sale on MicroAcquire. After inputting some of our info, but before I wanted the listing to go live, they emailed me and said they had made my listing live. I thought there was a button to submit the listing before it went live, but they told me it just automatically goes live as soon as you enter all the required info. So I asked them to make the listing non-public, which they did. But then the next morning I got another email saying our listing was live (I hadn't done anything). Not only that, but they had added a whole bunch of private info, such as our customers, to the public page! So now I've just edited out the confidential information and asked them to remove our listing. I just can't trust them, so I won't be using their service. It's a shame, as it looked like a useful service. I'm not concerned that they might sell my data.
