FUR AFFINITY PHISHING/SCAM SITE: http://furaffinity.t35.com/ http://noreds.000space.com/phish/ and http://furaffinity.tk/
(Do not sign into the above link. Seriously.)


We've gotten several reports of accounts being hacked recently. After looking into it, somebody setup the above phishing site to capture accounts and cause damage to FA and its members. We are currently taking the appropriate action.

The only official domain of this site: https://www.furaffinity.net

Many of the Phishing scams were sent by discombobulated.

If you believe you have signed into the above site IMMEDIATELY CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD(S). If you've used your password at any other site change your passwords there as well.

Phishing can happen to any site, and it's always best to be aware of what's going on around you and what you're clicking on. It's one of the most common scams on the Internet. If you're ever prompted to login to a site always doublecheck the domain at the address bar -- security begins and ends with you.

Quick tip: ALWAYS doublecheck your browser address bar. Proper domains end with a / in the title ( e.g. "www.furaffinity.net/ when you're at that site)". The / is important, as it denotes the end of the domain (otherwise, spoofers can setup furaffinity.net.otherdomain.com/ to make things look legit).
