I've found what appears to be a slightly broken mirror sight of bitcointalk.org at (if you visit this site do not log in) bitcointalk.to.

Does anyone know what this is because it concerns me this could be some kind of scamming/phishing site.

I almost logged in then realised I was already logged in to the actual site on another tab, and realised the domain was different. Had I done that the site would have my login details...

I believe this site is/was indeed used for phishing.

If i recall correctly hacked accounts would sent you a PM about a certain forum post, you click on it, and then you need to relogin on bitcointalk.to again because your session ""expired"".

Similar to this, bitcointaik.org https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1752318.0

https://who.is/whois/bitcointalk.org
https://who.is/whois/bitcointalk.to

These Who.is results are both extremely different, chances that this is a mirror site from an admin is highly unlikely. Most definitely a phishing scam.

It is a mirror to bitcointalk. I suspect it is intended to capitalize on ad revenue via page views, however it is probably not safe to login or otherwise enter your password on this site.
