The Cellar - View Single Post - Cellar.org hacked or compromised in some way?

Carruthers · 08-08-2020, 09:38 AM

I received an Email at the address registered with the Cellar in the early hours of this morning. It's headed 'To: Carruthers The Cellar'.

The sender is supposedly another named Dwellar and the second half of the address would appear to be a Japanese institution.

The sole text is a link which, when opened in private browsing, triggers an AVG message 'We've safely aborted the connection on inx.lv because it was infected with 'URL:Phishing'.

I've run both AVG and Malwarebytes scans and nothing untoward is revealed.

Any thoughts, please?
