The domain name mentioned in the picture is original it is of bitcointalk.org only then how can the Phishing attempt be successful?

It's an anchor tag.

Here's an example: yahoo.com

You think that links to yahoo.com? Nope. It links to google.com. Even though it's a very very very old trick, it's honestly very deceiving especially to the uninformed; though with time knowing this sort of "trick", you'd get cautious everytime you see a link on forums. Always hover your cursor over the link and check where the link actually leads to.

Code:

BBCODE(mostly on forums): [url=https://google.com/]yahoo.com[/url]

HTML(websites): yahoo.com

Oh exactly. Sorry I didn't realized that it could easily happen. meta tag must have been set to original bitcointalk.org but link of some other site. Actually even some google searches about bitcointalk point out towards some phishing page. These pages have a slightly different domains. Thanks for assisting.
