Fake site pretending to be Forge

Recommended Posts

Yeah i recently became aware of the same site after my little brother was trying to find a 1.13 download. It was the first link that comes up when googling it. The site tries to almost exactly copy the real one so it can trick people, especially younger ones. I took a look at it, it seems to just try install a bunch of junk on your computer. Probably trying to get ad revenue money or something. Not extremely dangerous, but would prefer if something be done to get it taken down.

Literally nothing we can do to take it down. They are in a country that doesn't respect international copyright laws. And they pay Google to be the top result so ya, Welcome to the world of asshats.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

To add, their unlikely to get any support as everyone who would care and know how to counter it is using DDG.

but what's DDG? 

DuckDuckGo, an alternative search engine like Google.

Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support.

1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support.

Interesting. Never heard of it before. 

Linux Mint uses it by default. Other than that, it's not as well known as some names like Bing, Google. Incidentally, not that anyone remembers it, but I'd stay away from Ask.com since they're owned by the notorious IAC (Interactive Corp) known for pushing malware/spyware (MyWebsearch toolbar, Zwinky, FunBuddyIcons, rootkits, auto-downloaders/reinstallers, and so on.)

Well actually, I had a friend trying to get Forge. I was telling him what to do, and as he is a big impatient bugger, he clicked on the wrong link. He had a million viruses on his computer. Don't worry though, as we managed to get them all off.

Hey DTRaptor, I also just fell on this fake forge thing....
Could you tell me how your friend deleted those viruses?
My CPU is running at 100% all the time because of those viruses.

Any help would be nice!

Use Malwarebytes and run a Windows Defender scan.

    • Hey, Me and my friends decided to start up a Server with "a few" mods, the last few days everything went well we used all the items we wanted. Now our Game crashes the moment we touch a Lava Bucket inside our Inventory. It just instantly closes and gives me an "Alc Cleanup"  Crash screen (Using GDLauncher). I honestly dont have a clue how to resolve this error. If anyone could help id really appreciate it, I speak German and Englisch so you can choose whatever you speak more fluently. Thanks in Advance. Plus I dont know how to link my Crash Report help for that would be nice too whoops
    • I hosted a minecraft server and I modded it, and there is always an error on the console which closes the server. If someone knows how to repair it, it would be amazing. Thank you. I paste the crash report down here: ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- WARNING: coremods are present:   llibrary (llibrary-core-1.0.11-1.12.2.jar)   WolfArmorCore (WolfArmorAndStorage-1.12.2-3.8.0-universal-signed.jar)   AstralCore (astralsorcery-1.12.2-1.10.27.jar)   CreativePatchingLoader (CreativeCore_v1.10.71_mc1.12.2.jar)   SecurityCraftLoadingPlugin ([1.12.2] SecurityCraft v1.9.8.jar)   ForgelinPlugin (Forgelin-1.8.4.jar)   midnight (themidnight-0.3.5.jar)   FutureMC (Future-MC-0.2.19.jar)   SpartanWeaponry-MixinLoader (SpartanWeaponry-1.12.2-1.5.3.jar)   Backpacked (backpacked-1.4.3-1.12.2.jar)   LoadingPlugin (Reskillable-1.12.2-1.13.0.jar)   LoadingPlugin (Bloodmoon-MC1.12.2-1.5.3.jar) Contact their authors BEFORE contacting forge // There are four lights!
