Hello,

 

first, i dont know where i can post this.

I wanted to download a new Forgeversion, typed in Google "Forge" in and goes on a website, what looks like Forge.

Then i downloaded it and first asked myself "Why Forge has now a third party installer, which downloads forge and want to install over third party software?". Then i realized, that Forge is not included in this package, only a minecraft installer was downloaded.

 

After looking at the URL of this Site, i saw, that is not the real Forge website. I clicked there on Forum and nothing opened, to be sure, that this one is a real scamming page.

 

Maybe the Forge Team can request a takedown of the site or somethink.

Website stolen from us poorly that is hosted in a country that doesn't respect copyright laws... Not much we can do to get rid of it besides ask nicely which they will just tell us to sod off. But we'll see what we can do.
