  1. As someone who's still lurking around here from time to time I also got the phishing message on my Firefox when I visited in the last few days. What's weird tho is that I checked the site immediately with "Google's Safe Browsing" thingy after getting the site is a Web Forgery notice and it says that it's safe. The weird thing is that Google Chrome and Firefox reports that the site is a Phishing when all in all, it just uses the same program I stated for verifying if a site is listed as a phishing, has a malware or whatnot. So, it's totally possible that there might have been a glitch/bug in the Safe Browsing System which caused this site to be reported as a webforgery or something and we're so lucky that it happened on us Anyways, I also checked the site with other well known website scanners and samething, they report that the site is clean: (For any users who are worrying if DCW has any malware whatever) Also, other than having an Ad-Blocker as BD said, I urge anyone who uses Firefox to install NoScript security suite plugin to prevent or lessen any further threats in the future. If you're using GC on the otherhand, you're much safer already lol. Other than that, I also recommend everyone to install Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit . It's highly recommended by Tech Experts. It's completely free (altho it says get a free trial on the site), super lightweight (like 1 mb +) and just basically adds a layer of protection to your computer.
