Title: Is coinbene phishing?? Be aware!!
Post by: sujonali1819 on April 20, 2019, 02:32:17 PM

I have just tried to visit coinbene exchange and got this alert by metacert (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cryptonite-online-identit/keghdcpemohlojlglbiegihkljkgnige) extension. Please see this photo.

Have anybody faced like this? Or only on my laptop?

Edit: According to replies in this topic it proves that it is a mistake/false by metacert. So I am locking this topic now. Thanks

By seeing it's Alexa rank, I bet it's the legit site.

Yep, and people should report this to metacert or someone send a message to coinbene support to interact metacert to solve this issue, this will cause some concerns on their side.

I guess the issue come from their registration form, they provided two option for new users to sign up (https://www.coinbene.com/login/register.html#/) by phone number or email. And because of that metacert (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cryptonite-online-identit/keghdcpemohlojlglbiegihkljkgnige)has marked coinbene as a phishing website.
