Topic: Bitcointalk account hacking/phishing Alert - page 2. (Read 671 times)
So bad to see how this guy keep trying to hack people's accounts and the rise in the sale of accounts, this situation needs to be given close attention.
It's really a shame that @tuannguyentn1, an account that has been here since 2017 can only muster just a single merit till date. BTW, what an ugly username that's there.
He is not only alone in this bounty hunting scheme account setup and has made only 56 posts from 2017 so you can clearly see his intentions and single merit helped him to achieve the junior rank member on forum but he didn't stop his work and now he's banned on the forum.These bounty hunters have hundred of pages with only bounty reports submissions and don't have any single merit on their profile.Both users are banned.
Yes they have been banned and these actions are required for the safety of the forum and we also have some phising warning on the forum sometimes but still we see these things:
So there are many scammers trying to contact your through PM so it's our responsibility to be alert and take a look at them carefully while don't click on these links without any means.
Both tuannguyentn1 and santhosh121081 are relatively old in this forum and I guess that is why they have an idea of the old phishing attempts. I think they should be stopped before it will become a trend in the forum. The case of tuannguyentn1, the account work up recently after long time of inactivity. The merit that made the user a Jr member was giving on a bounty report comment. A post that doesn't worth meriting. Everything about this scenario is fishy.
Maybe they woke up for phishing business in bear market. Incentivize by loss in bear market and need to find some bad jobs to cover their asses.Password changed / Woke up recently. Good signals to know potential scammers

So bad to see this happening still happening frequently, but make sure to report the message to moderators for them to take action against that account. Am sure you can also leave a negative trust on the account to prevent others from falling to this trick.
It's really a shame that @tuannguyentn1, an account that has been here since 2017 can only muster just a single merit till date. BTW, what an ugly username that's there. That hack attempt should reinforce anyone's alertness to a given fact that if something smells fishy, crosscheck it. Don't be in a rush to run over it. It was in your ability to check facts that you realized the URL was totally different from this site. It goes to show that once you've your account in "always stay logged in" and you're asked to log in again, be suspicious. I don't know why there's resurgence of this type of attitude now. Sad.
being both merited on different threads for non-substantial posts by SIXMJ to that effect …
I have a feeling that they are connected, apart from sending merits to both users who sent phishing PMs, SIXMJ also got merited by someone(dragospirvu75) who also got banned due to sending Phishing PMs to members. other than that assumptions, I don't have anything else, so I don't really expect any action to be taken against SIXMJ. 
(santhosh121081 and tuannguyentn1)
Both users are banned.
Well scammers are everywhere so you dont need to wonder why that happen --this is a common issue that we heard of even before.

Forum account hacking attempt, I received a personal massage with a fake forum link from user tuannguyentn1 that he made a reply to my comment, on clicking the link I was taken to fake forum log in page requesting my password on checking the URL I discovered it is a hacking attempt aimed at stealing my password, both old and new members should be careful because the rate of Bitcointalk account hacking is on the increase. I will share all the link including screenshots, I hope user tuannguyentn1 get red trust Dt2 member to save other from falling victim to this hacker.

If you look at the second screenshot closely you will discover the address in the address bar is not Bitcointalk
So once you fall victim by inputting your forum password your details will be stolen and your account gone.

Nothing new with this as their are still users want to hack some account for their own personal interest and luckily you check the url before going. Also you can report this up to the moderator so that the accounts used for sending you a message about that phising link will get banned so that they or he cannot used that for another phising link spreading again.
Oddly enough, both recent cases of accounts sending this phishing link (santhosh121081 and tuannguyentn1) were both merited and became Jr. Members either yesterday or today, being both merited on different threads for non-substantial posts by SIXMJ to that effect …

Countless time I've experienced issues related to this requesting that he likes my comment oost on a particular topic ot threads that he will like to learn more from me, then i wonder if that couldn't be discussed or asked on that dame thread but on a PM that has link address which is suspicious enough for an hacking format, the aren't wise enough than us, all i do is just to ignor the user, avoid the link sent nor reply the trash PM, and i then reported such to the moderator.

That's really sad to hear those kinds of things, did you try to speak with him? What he was expecting to do with a newbie account precisely? I really don't understand what those guys are looking for. Are you sure it was a human at least and not a bot? As it has been said please report the PM to moderators.Screenshot of message including the fake link:

I quote your post to show the pictures to everybody.
This has been around for quite a while, and there was a case of the hacker using an already hacked account to send the PMs. This could be the case here as the user tuannguyentn1 just recently woke up as can be seen on his trust profile.
You don't have to wait for DT members to send a feedback, you can do that yourself and use this post as a reference.
Reporting the PM as suggested above is also a great idea.

this kind of phishing attempt has happened before in this forum and the same thing happened to this member PowerGlove a few days ago(yesterday, if we are basing on forum time). the member received a similar PM from a different user.
I suggest reporting the PM to the MODs so proper action can be taken against the user who sent you the phishing link.
