Hi ThatRandom8543

Additional Notes: I have never heard of this user til today (new account). After further research, it looks like the link have been used and seen on this forum a couple of times from the user https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=876559 . It is possible that he could be sending messages in attempt to get account information to login, and possibly cause harm to a user rep. The user who sent me a pm have been reported to admins but I wanted to let others know to be careful with what links you go to and before you even enter any account information, to check the URL to make sure its the website youre suppose to be on and not some site design for only thinking you need to login. Luckly, I know that my browser never signs out so when I saw the login page after clicking on the link, I check the url and saw it wasnt bct.

Very nice catch, it looks the same as BITCOINTALK.ORG but isn't so this is the way they use to hack accounts.


Very nice catch again mate.

I started another discussion in the forum topics about this as I also got these links
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1850206

Did you get any suspicious emails after clicking on these links?

Thanks for the warning. I appreciate it. Really.  

Gave me a scare actually, since I get email notifs from bitcointalk on my phone, I sometimes just click the link
and log-in to reply on PM's. I sometimes do not bother to check the links/address since it's a hassle on the phone and frankly, has not occurred to me.
Good thing none of those I clicked were phishing attempts, and I've already changed passwords since the CBleed anyway. But still. Scary.

Thank You!
*I assume they've been banned? I hope all their alts are traced and banned.
