Title: Suspicious things happen when I try to go to Mt. Gox
Post by: Rockford99 on May 07, 2013, 03:24:51 PM
First it says the site is offline,  and there's a button to click for a "live version"

Now,  I get what looks like a regular site, but there's  no green thing on the web address bar.

What the hell? Does anyone else have these problems?

Looks like a phising scam to me. Are you using any antivirus software?

No problem for me.

Make sure you're looking at: https://mtgox.com/

When I paste the address you just sent, the K.K. Tibanne appears in the web address.  Previously it wasn't.  THANKS!

Doesn't this have to be happening to lots of people?  Are the recording my keystrokes?  I can imagine there are a lot of pirates and whores trying to loot these things.

Be careful people!

Change your passwords ASAP. You probably got phished already.

Yep. Sounds like you were a victim of phishing. Always ensure the green bar is there when you use Gox.

Change all of your passwords ASAP!

From the OP description, that is just the cloudflare anti-DDOS page, not a sign of local infection.
