An electrum docs website link is redirecting to phishing sites.

[HI-TEC99]

Today I clicked the link marked "tutorial: How to create a plugin" on the electrum docs website, and it redirected me to a phishing site. The link's marked with a red arrow on the screenshot below.





This is a virustotal scan of the first site I was redirected to.

I was very quickly redirected to another site afterwards. This is a screenshot of the second site.





This is a virustotal scan of it that says it's a phishing site.

After testing the "tutorial: How to create a plugin" link again I was redirected to a different site that virustotal said was clean. However it was trying to sell me some dodgy investment scheme.

DON'T CLICK THAT LINK ON THE DOCS WEBSITE.

The original link was this:

Code:

http://talkera.org/crypto/tutorial-creating-an-electrum-bitcoin-wallet-plugin/

and according to whois database, the domain name got updated on 2016-04-22T10:34:15Z so I'm assuming it's under the control of somebody else, It's really nothing targeted but instead of popping-up ads and we all know what those ads usually contains.
Open an issue on the Electrum docs repo and ThomasV should take care of it : https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-docs
