Victoria's Secret Website Down in Dayslong Unexplained Outage
Victoria's Secret & Co.'s website was offline Wednesday, with some customers saying they've been unable to shop online with the lingerie maker since at least Monday.
The company's website shows a black screen with the text: 'We identified an issue affecting the operation of our site.' No explanation was provided on its social media channels.
The Reynoldsburg, Ohio-based company did not respond to a request for comment. Its shares fell as much as 7.7 percent Wednesday, the most since April 10.
Website outages lasting more than a day are uncommon for major apparel brands like Victoria's Secret. Digital sales, including from its website and mobile applications, accounted for a third of the lingerie maker's revenue in 2024, or $2 billion.

The outage comes as activist firm BBRC International Pte Limited attempts a takeover of Victoria's Secret. In response, the retailer, which is due to report earnings next week, adopted a poison pill strategy to fend off the bid. Meanwhile, Victoria's Secret is in the midst of a turnaround effort, which includes revamping its stores and emphasising inclusivity.

Inter Milan Vice-President Zanetti Compares Current Champions League Finalists To 2010 Treble Heroes – Adds ‘Here's Where The Serie A Title Was Lost'
Inter Milan Vice-President Zanetti Compares Current Champions League Finalists To 2010 Treble Heroes – Adds 'Here's Where The Serie A Title Was Lost' Javier Zanetti feels that there are similarities and differences between the current Inter Milan team and the team that won the Treble in 2010. The Nerazzurri Vice-President spoke to Milan-based newspaper Il Giorno, via FCInterNews, in an interview in today's print edition. He also gave his thoughts on the failure in the Serie A title race. Advertisement Inter Milan are in the Champions League final. They are in the match for the second time in the space of three years. The last time that Inter were here was just two years ago. They narrowly lost to Manchester City in the final of the 2022-23 edition of the competition. Meanwhile, the last time the Nerazzurri actually won the Champions League was in 2010. They completed the European Treble along with the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia. Javier Zanetti was the captain of Inter at that time. And now, the Argentine is the club's Vice-President. Zanetti Compares Current Inter Milan UCL Finalists & 2010 Treble Heroes FUCHU, JAPAN – FEBRUARY 11: Inter Vice President Javier Zanetti attends a press conference during the inauguration of Inter Academy Japan on February 11, 2017 in Fuchu, Japan. (Photo byfor FC Internazionale) Zanetti looked back, 'My Inter was a very strong team,' he said. Advertisement 'But this team is also very strong. They haven't gotten to the final by chance after eliminating Bayern Munich and Barcelona.' 'If we think about the days leading up to the event, we certainly got to the match feeling very fired up,' Zanetti said of the 2010 Champions League final. 'The team had the adrenaline of the players who had won the Scudetto and the Coppa Italia.' 'Now, the coach and the players have to digest the title that slipped from their fingers narrowly.' 'It's something that makes you angry,' Zanetti said. Meanwhile, as far as the possibility that that disappointment in the title race could affect Inter's performance tomorrow, Zanetti said 'I don't think so.' Advertisement 'The guys are motivated,' said the Vice-President. 'Unfortunately, everything happened right at the end of the season.' 'Maybe the loss in Bologna in stoppage time was decisive,' he admitted. 'But now we have to be optimistic. The team believes in it, and it will be a very balance match.' 'We hope for a happy ending,' Zanetti added. 'We can only praise this group that's reach two Champions League finals in three years.'
