Battle.net fishing warning
« on: March 19, 2013, 05:41:24 PM »
Hi,

I was browsing the us battle.net forums when I found two threads, mentioning avast warnings concerning potential phishing attempts:

hxxp://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8178677959
hxxp://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8197912769

I can't reproduce the warnings but I'm still quite worried. Can you confirm that these are false positives?

Many thanks

Cannot reproduce this. Get no warning from avast!.
Phishwatch and Phishwalker alerts for that  IP are clean

Report suspected FPs to virus AT avast dot com, please
