Fake Bitcointalk forum Warning

[TalkStar]

Login button on main page is linking bitcointalk.org, but inside threads link is for phishing purposes.

Yeah that's the main trap for visitors IMO and most probably they put their login button destination to real bitcointalk domain which will force visitors to think that this site associated with real bitcointalk forum. Usually most of the phishing attack come from similar looking sites and visitors put their foot on this kinda trap.

Not the login/registration button directly, but the subsequent buttons redirect you to bitcointalk. This is what gives a special hint of malice, or ignorance.

An appropriate clone site would probably even do away with logins entirely.

I created a pull request for MetaMask: https://github.com/MetaMask/eth-phishing-detect/pull/3404

The MetaMask extension should block the website if they accept the request.

Thank you.
I did the same thing.... and guys from Metamask github told me they need more information.
I hope they will accept one of our requests.

Stay safe

This is the fourth time since I started here in Bitcointalk, but the admin of that phishing site is not that good he only clones the home page and not the login page which is where he can get the login details, we have no problem with old-timer I'm pretty sure they know what  real Bitcointalk link is they already bookmark it, only the newbies are not aware of this.

Looks like the login and register buttons lead to BitcoinTalk? This shouldn't be such a big issue (at least for now). Just like BitcoinTalk.to which AFAIK only showed ads and his captcha didn't work, so no one could try to login or register.

their site could have some code that copies login info - so while directing back to here, they then get our credentials perhaps.
