Title: [Bitcointalk.org] Phishing Attempt Post by: OmegaStarScream on January 14, 2017, 03:09:08 PM Someone contacted me using the P.M saying that he replied to me (while I noticed that he had no posts on his profile).
URL he posted redirects to a random page from FortuneJack thread on the forums (If you copy and paste it) , If you click on it then you get redirected to Bitcointaik.org where It asks you to type your username and password and claim that the session has expired. => bitcointaik.org/lndex.php?topic=1200970.0 (do not type your info here) https://i.imgur.com/G3fnlfP.png I have reported the P.M to Admin but I thought I should let you guys know just In case you receive it as well.

If it doesn't becomes green then it will show the normal link colour. Just report him to moderator or staff of the forum. Seems like someone playing nasty :( Title: Re: [Bitcointalk.org] Phishing Attempt Post by: cpfreeplz on January 14, 2017, 04:17:54 PM Oh wow that's a pretty sneaky way to go about it. Good for you for noticing and thanks for the post. I'll have to be more careful than I currently was.

Left them a negative feedback and contacted Lauda, as the user is a newbie (or rather "brand new").This should be sufficient reason for nuking the account. Done.

I use MicroSoft security essentials and it does the same.I think it's not the Anti-virus but the google chrome that blocks reported (not certified) SSL's with a obvious warning,Phishing Site Ahead. |
