Title: okcoin.com phishing?
Post by: anarchoatheist on June 26, 2015, 07:41:14 AM
I created an account on okcoin.com. Almost immediately after I did this I started receiving several phishing attempts on the associated email address. They pretend to be gmail team. They say someone has accessed the account and tried to change password etc. This email address is not published anywhere and is only used with one other exchange.

why they arent take nessesary actions for this? somebody can reach user's e-mail address. they have to figure it out and fix it. maybe you should contact with them.

That link is phissing, if you click it your OKcoin account can be hacked

we know the consequence of phishing link. But, I am sure that is not from official okcoin. Just check the email ( phishing ), and check the official email :)

okcoin.cn or okcoin.com ?

I reged both, so I am not sure from which it lekaed my email

Also I noticed under profile CN site has nick filed which by default was as my gmail... what nickname is used for and if its public I duno, but if its and its by default same as email (with no @gmail.com) its a security issue

I inspected the email a bit more,phising is genuine from google, but someone made gmail account and set as recovery options as my own email... duno what they are trying to do
