ATTENTION!
There are faked websites which have been created to steal login data from Unreal Software users. These pages look exactly like UnrealSoftware.de

√ Please always ensure that your browser's address bar shows
1
http://(www.)unrealsoftware.de/login.php
before you login.

× never click at links in PMs or mails or other messages if you are not 100% sure that they are safe.

√ Please change your password to make sure that nobody else can use your account.

I always wondered why there is a www zone and one without.

Presumably the one who are using this non-www domain to phish sensitive information is quite stealth. The bad thing is... I've been logging into that domain from time to time, I will change my password right away. Did you do a whois lookup on the domain?

> unrealsoftware.de
> www.unrealsoftware.de

As far as I can see, they're identical. But that might just be a total replica of this site, so I do not know. What's going on here?

There is just parked domains such as unrealsoftware.com. Which is hosted from the Bahamas.

As far as I can see there aren't any phishing websites aimed at this website. It's quite rare I think in that case. Maybe this was a false alarm? if not then let's list all phishing sites. We're all safe for now, just as long as we login on this domain and changing password.

this is not a false alarm. phishing websites do not necessarily have to have similar addresses. I have seen the phishing site and it is there.

I'm not going to show the link here.

You do know it can be "www.unreelsoftware.de"

As you can see, instead of "a" i replaced it with "e".

Anyone can be fooled by that.

Yea but there is no such domain as that or similar, I tested going to a few similar domains. Perhaps some users see the phishing site and some don't for some reason I believe that's what's happening here. I just see Unreal Software as normal.

This is probably the reason why my friends got deleted from my account?

Well, there could be many factors... maybe you use auto-complete in browsers? my friend does this and it enables anyone to login to websites being authorized as you. If you didn't know. Anyways, presumably there is a phishing site which is out for unrealsoftware credentials let's just be aware of it.

I've changed it in the first minutes I saw the friends got deleted. After I changed it, I also saw that someone tried to login my account.

how is the address ? (fake web)

I won't post it here. it's just an IP address. maybe there are also other domains which lead to it. I don't know and I don't care.
