As @Cyrus said, it can be possible only if you search on google and enter into the forum. I had also faced the same problem. Check the url and be sure it is bitcointalk.org.

To make sure bookmark the page, it's the easiest and probably the safest way to land on the page that you want to visit, I have bookmarked all my web wallet and all the websites that I have an account, there are to many phishing site and many have been reported hacked becausde of not landing in the right url.

Slava Ukraini!

I also noticed strange thing week or two ago. I used Google to find threads of several bitcoin advertising networks on bitcointalk. I opened links of several networks threads, but these links lead to different threads (if I'm not mistaken I was redirected to other threads on the same board and I don't know why). And I'm 100% it wasn't phishing links. And I had this problem only on Firefox browser, when I tried to open same threads using Opera, everything was fine.

How do you land on that page? If you search it via a search engine you might end up on one of the Bitcointalk mirror sites. These are not associated with Bitcointalk and might be created specifically for phishing.
Double check links before clicking them.

Forum links shared within the forum are highlight green on hover. Eg: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=1.0

I got the ANN thread link through Telegram, but the thing is that this same link works perfectly okay for my friend but in my case its different. anyway thanks for your time CYRUS, I will key to your advice

I guess you meant phishing, not fishing? It would be good for you to change the title fishing -> phishing or "Someone hacking".
