I have been inactive for quite some time, posted a few posts recently ( <24h )
because i wanted to sell some Lisk with escrow,
this is why I belive this has to do with me being a Lisk holder.

I just got an PM from this user:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=558363

His PM was:

Hi joschua011

I've replied to you

h t t p s : / / bitcointalk . o r g / i n d e x . p h p ? t o p i c = 7 7 4 9 2 9 . 2 6 4 0

which is a link to a fake bitcointalk site, the L is actually an uppercase i.
It directs to a fake login page.

ATTENTION ALL LISK HOLDERS, BE CAREFULL!!!

That bitcointaIk site is around for quite some time now...
Report the PM (to Cyrus/hilariousandco/SaltySpitoon), and they will surely ban the account.

Same to me!
Then I'd suggest you to do it aswell.

I have reported this website to ICANN including some topics where this fake website is used or was used before the chance is slim but if some of us reporting it we have maybe luck and the website will be suspended go ahead and report it let's kick him ass

Nope, they're after anyone with a bitcointalk.org account.

Is this site still attempting to scam users?
Most likely. Whether it be Bitcointaik or another domain, I expect that phishing sites will always be around attempting to trick people.

IMO, the best advice I can give is to install a password manager (E.G LastPass) and set it to auto-fill your Username and Password for Bitcointalk.org. This way, if LastPass doesn't fill in the form automatically, you know to check the domain and see if it is really Bitcointalk.org.

Tried to access the site via incognito it says site not found
I believe this is because the server is set up incorrectly/the owner is trying to hide the site. If you visit /index.php (or any URL similar to the link posted by OP) on the site it will come up with the default phishing site.
