Title: SCAM / PHISHING website https://bitcointalk.TO (forum clone)
Post by: laurenB7742 on December 10, 2017, 09:13:34 PM
When I was searching for information about Bitcoin Platinum fork here on bitcointalk forum, I somehow landed on this fake clone of this forum - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php
I almost logged in but luckily I found out something is wrong because when I log in to bitcointalk.org, my password is already filled by Chrome password manager. On this fake website ending with .TO my password didn't show up.
I am afraid that many accounts will be stolen because people will type in their username and password and authors of that phishing website bitcointalk.to will get the password of real account.

Is there anything we can do to shut down that website?
