Warning For Users of Prosper202

[Unarmed Gunman]

Somebody registered 202pro.com and looks to have a login capture clone site set up. At first I thought it might have been a clone site to collect aff commissions from, but if you follow the link structure, it appears to be more sinister, and nothing more than a login capture site. It happens to rank #1 for "202 Pro" on Google.

It's late and I'm tired, so maybe I'm missing something. Posting it for others to sleuth. Shady, what say ye?

Did you even read the source? It just displays the actual T202 page in an iframe. Note the 'subid' shows its an affiliate landing page only. I dont see any login capture form thats hosted on 202pro.com.

 

[Unarmed Gunman]

Yeah, I think you're right. My bad.

Mods - please delete...

[conv3rsion]

i'd rather people be on this shit and be wrong than miss something huge and very costly, thanks for the effort

 

[Unarmed Gunman]

Yeah, but I should have done a little more homework before essentially outing someones shit. It was late, and I was drunk. Woops.

I signed up for Prosper202 a week or two ago and am now consistently getting emails telling me to "finish signing up" and it contains a link to do that.

The from line is Tracking 202, the email address its from is support@government-grant-funding.com

wtf?

I started receiving these about 2 days after giving my email address to prosper, I'm not happy as this certainly seems like spam.

Circumstances sometime occur we have no control over. I myself sign up for it. It's time I guess to start playing safe and be careful.
