Dubai Hacker , Dubai Sec.com and UAE Hacker.com are now our Domains :)

We have successfully acquired the following domains names:

- UAE Hackers .com
- UAE Hacker .com
- Dubai Hackers .com
- Dubai Hacker .com
- Dubai Con .com
- Dubai Sec .com
- UAE IT .com
- UAE WWW .com
- UAE GSM .com

We even have UAE RAK .com representing all the hackers from RAK (Ras Al Khaimah!)



Some of these domains already point to uaehackers.com while others are in the process of being ported :) DubaiHacker.com is an exception as it is a stand alone site that has nothing to do with security but rather the hacking involved is Life Hacking ;)

Thanks for all the loyal readers for supporting us so far and providing us with tips on stories and upcoming events in the UAE and the Middle East region :) Also, for supporting us by clicking our sponsors' ads.

If you are interested in buying any of the domains above, please let us know :) These domains are only sold to people who will provide them with a good home though :P
