Title: brokechain.com - what manner of scam is it?
Post by: yasiel.puig on November 25, 2014, 05:33:23 PM
Does anyone know what this is?

Clearly it's some form of scam but I haven't found any warning as to what kind of scam it is on this forum.

Thanks.

Lol it's a phishing scam 0.1 per hour hahah, even my chrome warned me. It redirects to : blockchaein.info

Just stay away for it.

Phishing attack ahead
Attackers on blockchaein.info might try to trick you to steal your information (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards).

Thanks KIRAZ.

I figured it would be something along those lines.

If you used it make sure to change all your passwords which match the one you entered on it.
Otherwise report it to google here: https://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_badware/

There is another one called blokchain.info, sending you email to inform new incoming transaction. Everyone should be aware about it.

Shouldn't it be more appropriate to report the page as phishing page on https://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/ rather than malware?

always use the official and correct addresses that you have bookmarked before, in the first place. never click on suspicious links

Ha. There's only ever one type of scam: the one that takes your money and doesn't send it back. If you ever have suspicions about something go with your intuition and don't use it.
