Mineplex uprise in Phising links?

[Eca]

Just curious if it was just me that's noticed it.

Home page of Mineplex this was posted. (News feed)

Top of the Forum page on their website.

Anyone know whos behind this? As from what I've heard they have Phished well over 10,000 accounts using their botting scheme on the Server and that seems pretty damn Impressive.

Anyone have his/her Skype as I wouldn't mind talking to they.

Probably just people who cracked the accounts, simply to just save a list of all the players (20k online, maybe 200k different daily? idk.) and then start a cracker on them with the top 10 most common passwords, easy way to get accounts I'd say
(didn't do this myself but was on a forum where they did that and explained it)

a lot of this comes from mcdispensor and people who use the accounts to advertise their server..

I've used it myself
and when I got onto a lot of the accounts, they were already muted for 'scamming' reasons..

so the scammer uses a lot of mcdispensors accounts...

From my quick research it looks like they phish your account then turn it into a spambot to get more accounts.

All the Whois info looks fake, but you can try the email, although I don't see why you would want to contact them.

This isn't that complex tbh. However it is problematic, what he could do with the accounts or probably has done is turn them into some form of advertisement darkbot, thus getting more accounts, and the cycle goes on.
