URGENT UPDATE! I Just scanned my computer and there was a "Downloader file with a high risk, it infected my browser cache. I suggest everyone run virus scans on your computer right away to avoid being hsacked/keylogged. And to remove these viruses.! There are a few ways in which to tell if it is a fake. 1. The time is always 3:39 BT 2. The logo is Green and looks nothing like the current one. 3. It has a different url then the official Basil Market. 4. You should never have to log in because of a redirected page. As far as I can tell about 3-6 People have already been hacked because of this site. So if you have to log into a Basil Marketplace site make sure it is the real thing by checking these details first. Assumed hacked users: azureexplosion remyx UltimaStarzz

Cookiedude14 : Thank you,but I was wondering.If it's a different URL how come people have gotten into this site? They post it as a link disguised as a link to a real Basil Market Post, But it really redirects you to a homepage and tells you to log in so it can hack you if you do. Like: Basilmarket/post/1106 But it really takes you to a fake site.

Yeah, it looks obvious. Especially the false banner. All the links on the fake website bring you back to the original. But what i want to know is, why the hell would anyone want to hack a forum account?

But what i want to know is, why the hell would anyone want to hack a forum account? 1. They can post links urls if the person has been a member for a certain ammount of time thus hacking more people. 2. they enjoy hacking people and posting inappropriate things. 3. These people have no friends irl so they try to be "cool" and do stuff like this hoping we accept them as funny. 4. This person is obviously a 3rd rate hacker since he cant even make a proper banner/clock... URGENT UPDATE!
