It's not a phishing site.

You'll see forums that have a main site:

Code:
something.com

and instead of using the normal directory method of locating the forum area in something.com/forum.php or whatever, you can make it...

Code:
forum.something.com

lol that isn't a "copied" site of facebook. and https is just http secure. The security certificate is something completely different too, and I noticed your using google chrome *tsk tsk* Non

This, I thought the OP was trolling at first.

No, their FB page can't do that unless they have some sort of extension running (example: Java).
If your mouse started moving or something like that, you have a RAT. If you aren't making up that stuff is happening, then I'd take it over to HJT Team Big Grin

lol now I know that people don't read through the thread though before they post. There must have been at least 3 people that missed all 4 comments of mine saying it was not a phishing site, including the original poster. Really frustrating when you try to explain something in regards to the original post.
Obvious fake sites are obvious, just look at the domain.
it doesnot look like facebook to me from anywhere...Tongue
Whoa good thing you never gave the phishing site your pass and id lol jk Infinity i read your post!
