seriously, for what sorry. It looks like a phishing site, it behaves like a phishing site and security scripts complain about it too.

Wasn't sure.  Did not have the expertise to tell the difference - that is why I posted here.  If it is just a simple redirect issue then they can/should fix it.  Better safe than sorry.

If you weren't sure, why did you ask for them to be taken out? You should have simply asked what was going on, and you would not made yourself look like a jackass. You owe [Tycho] an apology.

Yeap, exactly, it is good to be careful and clarify, given the massive amount of scams and phishing on the Internet.

Not until AFTER you enter a password in at deepbit.com!  I can't tell if it is a phishing site or just bad programming on the part of the deepbit.net web site.

Dude. They are the same site on the same IP address on the same server. Chill.

Or, here's an idea. You could actually tell [Tycho] that his redirect isn't working quite the way it should.

But it goes to https://deepbit.net which seems to be correct.

Doesn't look like, I go to deepbit.com it redirects to deepbit.net.
No it does not!  I get a invalid certificate warning (Firefox).

Please take a look at deepbit.com.  It looks like a phishing web site but I am not sure.

If it is a phishing web site then how can these guys be taken out? (turns out is probably is not a phishing web site)

If it is not a phishing web site then who would we need to notify in order to get the redirect fixed?  (answer is Tycho)
