I think I can keep bumping this until the title reads "add [phishing] to [phishing] list"

Where is the "add [phishing] to [phishing] list" ?

If bitcointalk[.]to gets added to the phishing list, it will probably get filtered out and changed to something like "[phishing]".

Notice the title of the thread.

Honesty baffles me how a phishing site can outrank the real one on Google search.

Thanks mate, make sense now however I thought there is a public list of phishing sites. My bad.

[TheBeardedBaby]

I wonder how the other phishing sites were changed to [phishing] for no time but this sh!t is still unhanded for so many months now.

I still ask why? The case with bitcointaLLk was resolved in matter of days, here we are talking about months, many months..

Today is the first time I hear .to is a phishing site, and this is one of the reasons, it always pops up in Google, I always thought it was just a backup copy of the forum or a mobile version. I was wondering why I get logged out each time.

I hope you never tried to log in there. Maybe now is the time to change your password just in case.

iasenko was right, if ever that you've logged-in in that site, you should change your password immediately. There are lot of Phishing sites out there waiting for victims, this ".to" domain of Bitcointalk is not alone. You should be very careful about clicking links and always check if you are in the right link. Bookmarking Bitcointalk.org will somehow save your account.
I have discussed ".to" phishing site before. Here's the link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4476010.msg40187218#msg40187218
Try to visit it if you have sometime.

I must admit that I'm also guilty of having linked that phishing site in the forum last February but LoyceV quickly PM me and I edited my post.

I checked the backlinks of that phishing link and most of them are garbage. The owner has bad intentions of having this site copied this community, so I have no doubtsthat he/she/they knows black-hat methods on how to get into Google's page 1 and outrank us.

I'm pretty sure that theymos has seen this, what can be the reason that it's not added yet to the list with phishing sites?

[Quickseller]

I don't think that domain is making an active effort to trick people into giving any kind of personal information. If you have evidence this site is trying to obtain some personal information via deception, you should post said evidence.

Bitcointalk.to appears to be a mirror of some sort, similar to the many other mirrors that are out there. Mirrors are useful in that they give people behind things like the GFW additional ways to access the forum, and its free flow of information.

An interesting fact, as cheater hunter sometimes I need to copy paste one eth address on google bar search and often I find the eth address from a research as bitcointalk.to while the bitcointalk.org is not even shown on the results of google.
If you copy the .to link and you change the .to with .org, the page it esixt on our forum.

Why google shows .to researches but not the .org ones?

Just the fact that the captcha doesn't work in the login page kinda "proves" that phishing isn't the main focus of the website. In fact, maybe they don't even record logins (just don't try to login, maybe they do).

Also, wasn't the forum changing every mention to https://bitcointalk.to to https://bitcointalk.org ? What changed?

I lost my junior member account to those ass munchers.  I locked it so they can't use it.  But I can't get it back because I don't have a key staked - never posted a key in bounty or sig or nothing.  Fucking fuck those hacker fucks until their eye balls are bleeding jiz.

Is it possible for bitcointalk.org to purchase the domain to avoid getting phished? Or it will costs a fortune if you will buy another domain just for this reason?

The owner needs to agree on selling it. If - and only if - he wants to sell it, he can ask for any price he wants (even unrealistic prices).

[theymos]

It's already wordfiltered, just in a different way than sites that are 100% clear phishing.

That'd be subsidizing bad behavior.
