wolstech Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 That account is suspended for Phishing. For security reasons, phishing accounts cannot be unsuspended, backed up, or deleted. You will need to create a new account and restore any backup you may have. Please be aware that you will not be able to reuse any domains on your suspended account, and will need to pick a new username. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
godgrid Posted November 27, 2017 Author Posted November 27, 2017 Lol, but I am not using it for phishing. I did not make any false login pages on that web site. I the login forms on that account has no scripts, they are directly linked to the main sites themselves. Anyways if you do consider it to be a phishing site then I guess I can't do anything about it.
wolstech Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Unfortunately, 99% of the sites we see of that nature are phishing, hence why that got suspended. It's widely frowned upon from a security point of view to host the actual login form on your own site anyway, because for end users, there's no way for users to be sure there's nothing between your form and the real sites collecting that data. We see this exact setup all the time with Clash of Clans, Mobile Legends, 8ball Pool, and several others. The forms do work and actually log you in, but steal your credentials in the process. If you want to host a site without those login forms, I'm willing to remove the domain from your account so you can create a new account and continue using our services. Would you like me to do that?
godgrid Posted November 27, 2017 Author Posted November 27, 2017 But can i still link those sites? Not with login forms but a link to their login pages?
wolstech Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Of course. You're definitely welcome to provide a link to the official login pages. I've removed your domain and email address from the banned account, so you're now free to sign up again. If you have questions about your content, feel free to post on here asking about it. We'd be happy to answer whether or not something could be taken to be phishing.
godgrid Posted November 27, 2017 Author Posted November 27, 2017 Okay thank you Will it take 24 hours before I can create a new account?
wolstech Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Check your email The only restriction is that you can't reuse your username.
godgrid Posted November 27, 2017 Author Posted November 27, 2017 Thanks, I was able to create my account just now
godgrid Posted November 27, 2017 Author Posted November 27, 2017 By the way is it considered phishing if I use a search form in my website to search, say, google or some other site that has a search box?
wolstech Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 No it's not. It'd only be phishing if you ask for private information for a service that isn't yours. A search box would never be phishing because searches are not private.
Krydos Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Lol, but I am not using it for phishing. I did not make any false login pages on that web site. I the login forms on that account has no scripts, they are directly linked to the main sites themselves. Anyways if you do consider it to be a phishing site then I guess I can't do anything about it.Without root access to look at the code all we can see is a login form for a service that isn't hosted on our servers. Pretty much the definition of phishing from the point of view of someone who can't see that the usernames and passwords aren't saved.
godgrid Posted November 28, 2017 Author Posted November 28, 2017 Yeah didn't think of it that way before, sorry and it won't happen again
godgrid Posted November 29, 2017 Author Posted November 29, 2017 I am kinda feeling lazy re-writing the whole web page and I thought that maybe I can just pass word protect the whole site so no one else will be using the login forms?
