Title: Launched 2 days ago... Now we are a phishing site?
Post by: rimbit on June 08, 2013, 02:36:59 PM
I just thought you maybe interested to know about what is happening.
2 days ago, we started a new bitcoin venture with a FAQ type website, explaining our system in part and also asking for some crowdfunding.

As of just a few hours ago, Our site has been hit with a phishing notice. A bit strange don’t you think?

I dont know whats happening.. We reported it to Google and it now appears to be fixed...
It had that DIRTY RED warning sign... saying we are a phishing site or faking being a bank...

Its fine now.. (I spoke to hostgator and they are looking through it now)

Anyone else seeing strange things like this happening?

EDIT: Some people are still seeing the warning sign... can someone verify it?

Yeap have seen before, it is normally some iframe injection, we normally clean it and report to Google to have the sign removed.

Searched your site but couldn't find the following information:
How exactly is GoDaddy supporting your business?

I've noticed this with other Bitcoin websites too, I think someone just hates Bitcoin and is looking to cause trouble with fake reports :P

I can get that from any coupon distributed by their affiliates. How is that "supporting"?

Can we get a written statement from GoDaddy confirming their support of your business?
I mean, you're using their logo to promote and instill confidence in your company. They are for sure aware of the fact and won't mind recognizing their support of your project in some offical form, right?
