Somebody has already written about this website a few days ago.
Imho it's not enough. I think that anybody reading this forum knows about the Electrum problems and the basics to stay safe.

I think that we should act. I reported at https://www.mywot.com and https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en
This will give a chance to some users that don't come here to still get warned (by the browser).


Edit: we need more reports to give it weight

Thanks for your feedback. I already reported it to your mentioned websites, but I think it's more effective if we will report it to the registrar of the website just like what I did, reported it to the registrar of the domain.

This domain actually went offline a while back... it was one of the first ones that popped up when the initial phishing attack started back in January... but appears to be back.

Have reported to both the Google "SafeBrowsing" site and also logged an "abuse" claim with the registrar (NameCheap) by following the instructions here: https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/9196/5/how-and-where-can-i-file-abuse-complaints

You can also contribute to updating this list and you will find people interested in reporting as well. ⚠⚠️⚠~Beware on active phishing Electrum websites~⚠⚠️⚠ (Collection list updated)

I believe that raising the awareness of the need to download only from the official site is much more important than the search for Phishing sites because it will not end as long as they get a few cents of these sites.

Thanks for highlighting that thread... I really do need to browse the B&H board a bit more frequently, as I totally missed that one. I think it got buried in amongst all the helpful "guides"

Thanks for that, I'm about to post it there but HCP already did.
