As many of you have already found out, or guessed, these sites are attempts to phish your login details from several other sites.
If you have registered at any of those sites using the same login details used here or at any tracker, do change them immediately.
Anyone found posting links to such sites will be permanently and irrevocably banned from FST.
Several users have already been banned for this, so don't join the list.
Thanks again for helping me cabalo . I was freaking out because I tought I had some viruses of some sort and I paid for a full license at Kaspersky so I was starting to doubt the antivirus .
I was kinda dumb for registering at that coi.li website :lol: , damn curiosity .
The guys who made the scam even messed with my Facebook page :lol:
Melvin had posted about this scam in the open signups thread some days ago. It does warrant a separate thread, however.
What about adding that URL to the word filter here?
Edit: Cabalo, I think you made a typo. It's not ".coi.il" but ".coi.li". :)
Don't be panic it's just one of billions from checkyfool's domain.
Use different passwords at every site to be safe. You can use a program like Keepass to generate and store a set of secure, unique passwords for each site.

Yes, my bad. Thanks, I wouldn't have noticed.Quote:

thanks for the info
Why can't these super idiots mind their own business then to get hold of other people's login details. Needless to say the attempt has touched a new low.
Thanks for the info Cabalo :)

KeePass isn't terribly difficult to use. :unsure:Quote:

On topic: Just ban the creators, their families, future kids, dogs, cats and robots from every torrent site existing.
Where did this links show up at. Was it something that got mass emailed or something?
They were posting that in the open signups thread all the time. It even got its own thread in the lounge. Apparently the posts have been deleted.Quote:

Lastpass, on the other hand, is closed source, but it's much more portable and is much easier to work with cross-platform since it syncs to the internet. The only vulnerability I've ever heard of was an XSS issue a while back which didn't let you get at the actual passwords, though you could find a list of sites people had passwords saved for.
its israeli domain
lastpass is the best :)
And you went ahead and posted it at the open signups thread.Quote:

Be sure you didn't use your email accounts password in the login password field as well.
I have seen quite a few people that use say 'bob' for their email password use 'bob' when signing up for sites like that.
With them seeing your password they are attempting to access not only your torrent sites with your username, they are accessing email accounts as well. Seen it happen to several users for over a week. They would sort their accounts on trackers out and then their passwords would be changed again... (Using Recovery method.) The users didn't know the douchebags had access to their email accounts still.
Just figured I would mention it.
'bob'? So much stupidity deserves to be punished, those scammers are probably doing them a service.
Some people are stupid with their passwords indeed, but that doesn't mean it's OK to steal their accounts.Quote:

I wasn't saying people's passwords are bob... I was giving you an example ;)
Those guys are quite funny on that site btw...
They were using someones account and I kept banning them within 30 seconds of them signing into the account again.
I even resorted to changing this 1 users password and emailing him telling him to contact us on irc or recover...
1 minute later the .il guy was back on the site again thats when I seen they were using the guys email account as well.
BTW whoever said the guys are from .il is correct at least based on the ip's I have seen used on anyone's accounts.
Hi cabalo!
Thanks for the info Cabalo
