On Sept. 10, a hacker said he was responsible for the crash of sites hosted by the web host and domain registrar GoDaddy, however, on Tuesday, the company itself said the "service outage was not caused by external influences," according to CNN.

"It was not a 'hack' and it was not a denial of service attack (DDoS). We have determined the service outage was due to a series of internal network events that corrupted router data tables," Scott Wagner, GoDaddy's interim CEO, said in an e-mailed statement, according to the CNN. "Once the issues were identified, we took corrective actions to restore services for our customers and GoDaddy.com. We have implemented measures to prevent this from occurring again. At no time was any customer data at risk or were any of our systems compromised."

E-mail accounts hosted by the server were also affected, including some of the site's DNS servers.

On Monday, Anonymous Own3r, a Twitter ID, tweeted, "the attack it's coming only for me. Hello everyone who wanna me to put 99% of the global Internet in #tnagodown?"

The twitter post surfaced after sites originally reported that perhaps the crash was done by a member of the Anonymous hacking group, affecting countless websites and service.

But Anonymous Own3r claimed responsibility for the action, stating, "the attack is not coming from Anonymous collective...only from me." Reports now show the post to be false.

GoDaddy said the "service outage" lasted from 1 to 7 p.m. ET on Monday.
