RE: The Blocks For This Coin Are Confirming So Slow That I Think They’re Being Sent Via The Post Office

in #bitcoin7 years ago

I'm trying to access steem.supply on chrome with metamask plugin. I get the following message:

"
ATTENTION

MetaMask has detected this domain to have malicious intent and has prevented you from interacting with it.

This is because the site was listed on the EtherAddressLookup malicious site blacklist.

You can turn MetaMask off to interact with this site, but it's advised not to. We blacklisted it for a reason.

You can donate to the blacklist maintainers if you want:

I guess somebody listed your site on the blacklist, or may be hacked the site. It's off-topic, but I left this message here, because it was the easiest way. Once you reply to it I'll delete it.

Sort:  

It's not hacked, as far as I can see. I enabled bitcoin paying ad network a-ads a couple of weeks ago and it may be that some people saw some ads on that network, which looked fishy and reported them. I'm filtering all NSFW, Shady and Gambling ads from a-ads, but if the IP belongs to that network, then it will just fall under the filter. At least that's my opinion now... Will look into it further...

It may also be some dirty competition move, but who knows :)

This was my first assumption(dirty competition). But keep in mind your site is not accessible unless you disable the extension. Traffic is redirected to https://metamask.io/phishing.html.

It seems the blacklist is updated via github https://github.com/409H/EtherAddressLookup. Though I couldn't see your url there when I took a quick look. Hopefully if you investigate more you'll be able to find the root cause.

Thanks a lot, appreciated :)
