Re: ⚠️ How Scammer tried to Hack my Bitcointalk and how to Protect yourself?⚠️
OK.. please examine the case and catch the fish.
I reported on time, and as fast as I could.
Now your thread has been moved in the beginners section I think very few members will see it.I reported on time, and as fast as I could.
So I think you should open a thread in Economy > Trading Discussion > Reputation section, on Kingpin4321. It's the right place for flags and tags.

Someone else proposed that I move it to B&H since it is also a guide for newbies
and I don't have extra time to move topics all day round....
It is where it is now.
Thanks.
Nice catch tho, it can really be pretty obvious attempt from the hacker. I just wondered why choose your account over a higher account which he can benefit more, hmm sounds fishy.
Well, I've got this assumption that the hacker thinks he can get as this user is just a Member rank and have little to know about phishing. Not knowing what he tried to mess is a techy guy and even surpass him on the knowledge about those kinds of things.It might be good to move this one on B&H board as it is more appropriate there. Nice catch OP.
Now he seems to have been banned, so the issue about him is closed, normally.
BTW I don't think it's a topic for beginners since the hacker is not targeting newbie accounts and the case is raising concerns about homographic attacks, so it was a rather weird suggestion from this guy...
All this above is for those that don't understand phishing sites and that bitcointak internal sites are marked in green when you hover over it with your mouse.
People are not only using old computers with mouse, we are in 2019 now.
