If you have to search for bitcointalk bounty campaign threads through Google or other search engines please do so with caution and look before you login. Hackers of BCT accounts could be using phishing websites to target bounty hunters who use search engines to find bounty campaigns. I stumbled across this particular website while searching for bounty threads and decided to double check the link when I noticed that certain params did not fall in place despite the striking semblance of the site to bitcointalk.org. I then found out that the site goes by the name thebitcointalk.net instead. You may check it out.
This website looks every inch a clone of bitcointalk.org and therefore, suspicious. I think admin should investigate the reported website and escalate this warning if necessary.
