Oh i remember there was some attack a while ago that faked transactions to make look them double spend is it the same kind this time?
No - the current attack seems to be a huge amount of low-fee txs which have basically meant that the usual 0.0001 fee is not confirming quickly at all (and if the attack continues your tx may end up being dropped from the mempools).
My guess is that this is coming from those that are trying to push for taking control of Bitcoin development (they have deep pockets and no conscience).
