So I was looking to buy a processor when suddenly the guy sent me the following message:
upload_2018-2-20_23-26-41.png

So I went to the link he sent me:
upload_2018-2-20_23-27-10.png


And like an idiot I tapped my login information quickly and without thinking.
After a few seconds, I noticed that the address referred to a different address, with a copy of the site and a login. It's a fishing website, the guy is trying to steal accounts. I immediately changed all my passwords, pay attention!

Thanks for the heads-up.

User @mnerkingy is no more - but once somebody builds the Phishing site they are likely to come back and try to re-register and do it again.

Thanks. I just added that domain to my blocklists.

Its interesting that it redirects you back to the real forum after it collects your info.

Tried to do it to me, but under the guise of buying something I had for sale. Noticed the link said error so figured it was spam

Reported them earlier this morning, but wasn't sure if that went through. I don't suppose there's any way to get a confirmation that you've reported a post?

@cooldude did you get hit by this? I deleted the FS post. Looks like one IP was shared with the user banned for this thread.

Apologies guys, as STH has grown, apparently we get to deal with this now.
