Is Bitcointalk.to same of Bitcointalk.org ?

[BTC Turkiye]

I see some of the content is same but I`m kind of confused. There was this NEMEther airdrop topic here which seems to be removed (for who knows that reason) but the same topic still continues on bitcointalk.to ? I don`t understand what is going on???

Does anyone not know about this? Including the mods or admins?

Can someone please confirm that Bitcointalk.to is NOT bitcointalk.org?
is it a scam site or fraud or copy ?

[CodyAlfaridzi]

It is definitely NOT bitcointalk.org. There is a (big) chance that site is a phishing attempt to hack bitcointalk account. Just stay away from it and make sure that you click/login on the correct bitcointalk domain. On this forum, bitcointalk urls are colored in green when your pointer hover above it.

Edit: Apparently a thread about this is already made before on Meta. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2295116.0

[neurotypical]

If you have ever accessed bitcointalk.to with your bitcointalk.org account, change your password immediately. Whoever is in charge of bitcointalk.to is most likely stealing passwords this way.

Given the massive amount of accounts getting hacked lately, I wonder what percentage comes from phishing due this bitcointalk.to website.

Has anyone attempted to know who is behind it? that can't be legal.

[santino11]

beware of that site its a total copy cat of this site ! that might get informations and hack your account!
many account was hacked before and sold here also for small amount !

[UCHCHILD]

Oh, that is definetly not the bitcointalk.og maybe abd surely, they just want to clone our good and valuable forum and trying to get more people from here and so they can have earnings as what the developer of this forum having now. Also do  ot put your self to some website which you do no thave any backgroud  because i might just let you fall and be thier victims.

Woah its horrifying. I clicked the link and then read people warning about clicking it in the posts. Its better that admin must take some action againts such websites.

[loda.doa]

content of the site are identical. bitcointalk.to is a copy of bitcointalk.org. I suddenly when having a website just like bitcointalk so. a comment by me 1 ' also appears on bct.to party. I hope this is a different domain of bitcointalk.org. never logged on bct.to account,please be careful with it. so maybe this is a scam site

[ASHLIUSZ]

This has been around long back and it's a plan to hack the account of users. This has got the layout and each and every form of activities similar to that of the real forum. We need to be careful while using such kind of websites which serve as an carbon copy with very little changes in the domain.

[loda.doa]

I have to enter the address bar edit "org" to "to" . the results surprise:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2302330.0
I think this may be a different domain of bitcointalk.org. However, before the confirmation from the Admin, beware it

[Zagitta]

I think this site is a clone of the real on (this forum) and you should be very careful NOT to enter your password in, because your account would get stolen.

[BTC Turkiye]

You know the worst thing is that I googled something about a coin and this came up on top with Bitcointalk.org
They copy the entire content so google actually index them as well and they never remove any topic or content so if you`re looking for a topic that is removed from .org? it`s still in .to

This is messed up guys. We have to take action on that and report the crap out of this SOB!

[SixOfFive]

This seems to be the parallel universe going on...hahaha
But on the serious note....BEWARE....This is a scam website. It is used to get your profile password and details. Hackers used it to hack the profile and then sell it others. Thanks to Forum mangers that they introduced a new feature in forum that send a confirmation mail to your registered email id while changing password.

Contents are same as they are in bitcointalk.org, so most probably the bitcointalk.to is a fake forum created just to steal the details of bitcointalk.org accounts. We should be careful and try to aware other people on this forum too. Waiting for any reply from the "Staff", hope so they will guide us better in this matter.

It seems to be a phishing attempt to get the account information and password from on the users of this forum. Admins should pay attention about this.

Of course this is a phishing site. It is now becoming the order of the day to have these hackers go this way. I will advise that links to such sites should not be made active (like I did the quoted) so that people here don't mistakenly click on them.

I agree with you in being important not to make active these links. Besides, is this meta? Anyway, it's important that everyone knows about this scam..

[kimochidesh]

It is a fake site to get the username and passwords of the BITCOINTALK.ORG users so that their account can be hacked. There are a lot of scams going on nowadays. Alike sites are being created to con the investors and user. SO Be aware and conscious while using a site.

[Adbitco]

Yes the site op gave the link to is exactly a replica of bitcointalk.org, I had never heard about it before but yes it's there. Everyone of us should avoid using the same login details which we use here on this forum if any one of us ever register there. I wish some action could be taken against such copy sites to take them down but I think that's not possible. I guess it's safe to stay away from such site.

[stompix]

It's not just that one.
There are tons out there.

Be careful what links you click on google and in your PM.
There was a large phishing attempt using bitcointailk or something like that.

The worse part is that google is getting tricked sometimes and if you mistype bitcointalk it will show both results from the real bitcointalk but also from the phishing websites.
Best thing you can do is report those, one report might not do anything but a hundred or a thousand will.

If the entire community of bitcointalk.org would report such site then it would really be effective at all.My comment about that site this is just purely a phishing site which it do really victimize bitcointalk.org users to logged in on the site.If your eyes isn't active or keen on links for sure you will really input your informations there on the site and later on you do find out your account has been hacked. This is actually a users responsibility regarding on how they do secure their bitcointalk.org accounts.

[anhhung409]

Is it a fake website when it is identical to Bitcointalk.org?
Has anyone cheated on this forum?
And if any topic on the forum has been stolen and backed up on that side?
We need someone to speak out and confirm

It is really do not the same as Bitcointalk of course.  No one or no other can clone the feature that this website has. Maybe the physical outlook but how it benefits the users? No one , so it is not completly the same.
Any forum can use Simple machine forum, it does not mean it is clone of this bitcointalk.

Yes it's definitely a fake website as the domain is totally different from the original one. There is also a huge time difference which can be identified by comparing it to the forum time. The topics discussed here are public and can be copied easily, so there are pretty good chances for it to be stolen. It's not actually backed up but cloned so that users can be a victim of the site and enter their details there. We should be alert and stay away from such sites. They intend to steal our accounts and sell them to other users.

[Kingofbitcoin12345]

As technology now even a new born child can be identical.. Wazzup with that.. Even a one dollar bill can be identically be made one is fake and one is real..

Has anyone cheated on this forum?

Are you accusing someone or a member in this forum is the one make this other forum to cheat anyone..

And if any topic on the forum has been stolen and backed up on that side?
We need someone to speak out and confirm

Topic can be copied and that is publicly available and all of that is open to be copied and be used any else where..
I think you mean the accounts that might have been hacked..

[faithupgrade]

Thanks for the heads up. The site looks like a clone of this forum. I feel the modus operandi is to steal btctalk accounts for selling. Be cautious from opening links inside the forum. The clone site will ask for your password.  Beware.

[Bergiolia]

It's not the same site, I checked it but it's neither a proxy or a redirecting site. So better stay away from the site because your account will be compromised.

[wwzsocki]

This is a malware site and should be reported. There is no way to register on this site because there is captcha to solve but is empty just doesn't show up. So they just trick people to past passwords because it looks like you are just logged out and if you remember your password you can type and there you are hacked.

Today this happens to me when I was searching for other thread in google. Luckily I was actually logged on bitcointalk.org and I have a strong password,
Firefox doesn't fill up automatically the password even I have tried a few times. He shows my saved usernames but not the password(lucky me).
This is when I started to think something is fishy on this page because my browser didn't know the password for this URL.

So this is Google search shows topics which are actually deleted or not closed on original bitcointalk.org forum when you search for: "something bitcointalk" they show up this bitcointalk.to, I think. So be aware this is a malware site and there is no way to know at the first and even second look !!!!!

Thank you for bringing to the notice of unsuspecting members of bitcointalk.org forum many members must have fallen victim of this phishing site and their password stolen when  I checked that forum it is almost tempting me to use my login details but I wisely closed it down completely.

[wwzsocki]

I have checked and I found in my browser history that I was searching in Google for "readcoin bitcointalk".

As you see from screen Google shows in first place original bitcointalk.org topic and later malicious bitcointalk.to for 3 times !!!

So there is no other way to be safe only we have to check links when searching on Google before clicking. Each and every time.

Here screen with my search.

[jak3]

Honestly I am using bitcointalk.org from 2011 and I have never heard about bitcointalk.to ever, it's hundred percent sure that it's a scam but let's assume we are not blaming someone to run a scam then I can assume that it is a backup site of bitcointalk as they keep all of the form backup like post, topics, messages, account details etc and that separate site so if this site gets compromised they can still recover the accounts and the form data from there.

[50ouncebrew]

Obviously these are not the same if the domain is different. Why would you think that they would be the same?

Is Google.org the same as Google.com? Or Google.to? Obviously not.

I mean Google might own those domains, but it is a different website altogether.

Bitcointalk.org only using from 2012 to still that and too never heard the bitcointalk i think it's a scam and as you seen in a Google screen is shown in original bitcointalk.org topic and later malicious bitcointalk.to for 3 times so there I so no other way to check when search in Google before clicking each and every time and we need someone to speak out and conform .

[bloodyvio]

this is the same case just like the MEW (MyEtherWallet)
many phishing sites that resemble the original
only different domains
myetherwallet.com (real site)
myetherwallet.com.co (phishing site)
myetherwallet.in (phishing site)

please be careful out there, the original bitcointalk site has a .org domain
bitcointalk phishing sites want to steal your bitcointalk account because currently bitcointalk account is very valuable

There is no way to make an account there because you have to fill captcha which doesn't show up so you can not fill in code or secret word. They hijack passwords. I thought that I was logged off suddenly and tried to log in using autofill luckily Firefox has not filled password because of a different domain name.

[Shunyo]

it mirrors all the data from this forum exactly and also lists in google search as well.

[seoincorporation]

Apparently, something similar is going on with the BitcoinWiki. The "real one" is Bitcoinwiki.it, and there is another one called Bitcoinwiki.org.
You can read about it in here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1253584.0
It was reported a few ago by another user.

The massive attack towards this forum is amazing.

[Tynovten_]

So unlucky if you already logged in that phising site. It will rob your account. Go change your password fast if you ever logged in. This is warning for all of us so we will be careful if we find an uncommon site. That's a crime that already exist for long time and it hard to disappears. Only back to the users to be careful see the website.

[ryancpk]

It is a phishing site. Please change your password as soon as possible if it happens that you type your password there.

[Xal0lex]

I found three more clone:

- thebitcointalk.net
- fonstavka.com
- lawcommonentrance.com

[Pyrojason]

I just found the .to site - It has a really recent archive of posts.
I noticed it to be weird as I wasn't signed in - going to sign in it had an error on the capcha area for the 'webhost.'
Hopefully it'll get taken down. Where would something like this be reported?

You can try this: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en

Obviously its a phishing site. So the only way to avoid them is to double check everything otherwise say bye-bye to your account.
