But the details of the phish (form, payment, file) are not reported.
Maybe Comodo is ahead of the pack. But there are some major players in the 86 which do not see a phish here.

That site was probably hacked at some time, but the images are being served up ok now. Another vote for not allowing hot linking of images from remote sites, something that will be addressed when we move to the new forum software.
Yeah! Externally hosted pictures is the very definition of malicious intent! 😀
I don't get it though, it's very easy to upload pictures here. Though it could be that it's easier for those that donate, since we're allowed higher resolution pictures.
I seem to remember having trouble uploading pictures before, since the upload frequently used to get stuck probably because of conversion.
Lately I've been uploading directly using my phone, have to do one UL at a time but it's more convenient than copying files to another device, convert manually then upload.
Could be that's part reason why some people still use external hosting?
