[Be Aware]: Fake bitcoin.org

[cryptomaniac_xxx]

Another heads up for everyone, please be aware that there is a fake bitcoin.org site

Code:

https://bitcóin.org/en/

I have reported it right away and I do hope that it will be taken down ASAP.

I check the site, it seems that it is displaying differently because it is redirecting to site:

Code:

https://www.superbrightleds.com/

I also look at the domain information, and it is up for sale, and this is the ip address:

Code:

185.178.208.162 - 53 other sites hosted on this server

There's a possibility that the owner of both sites is one, I have the forum bookmarked, there's always a phishing site trying to hack member's account, members account especially those of high rank commands a good price in the market, so if you have a good rank be sure you have your account secured and your address staked here.

 Where did you've seen this, it's very rare to see that bitcoin.org has a phishing website, where there's nothing this website can offer other than verifiable information though I would be cautiously accessing the website, it might have malware or anything, bad actors to your device.

Unfortunately, they won't show any of my google searches due to an ad blocker. Thanks for pointing out, anyway.

If in Chrome you use an ad blocker it will not be possible to appear, when I try to search the same as bitcoin core then I find ads like @DroomieChikito what about beginners who don't know what then click on the order of one?
We need to report this. This is very dangerous. I know that many Bitcoin Core now use it to store BTC.

Rare maybe, but I'm not surprised one has popped up right now given that people are probably doing a lot of searches for bitcoin/crypto.  Seems like a weird imitation, as usually the phishers go for misspellings rather than using a symbol like that over the "o" like this one did.  I don't know who would mistakenly type that out, but it'd probably fool a lot of people if it showed up in search results.

Thanks for the heads up, OP.  I'm not sure how many bitcointalk users would have fallen for this, but the warning certainly can't hurt.

I reported already the site on its registrar (namecheap) after seeing this thread, hope they eventually act on the report and take proper actions. Don't worry I'm into this, people here should be the ones to act to report such sites.
