Hi my dears, sorry if this is not the right section, but i need to ask you experts of cybersecurity what's your opinion on Woobox. i play a videogame, the developers give away in-game contents to players if you follow their official game pages on fb, youtube, twitter.. to claim those promotional contents i had to enter throught woobox and put "like" or "subscribe". since i've never used it, i'm asking myself what can websites like woobox that are about sweepstakes etc. gather about the users? what are the informations they usually collect? are those websites, like woobox.com/coupons.com safe, as far as you know, or can harvest sensitive informations or worse hide malwares? thank you in advance for your help, i love you

ok.. so apparently i've clicked on the wrong link when i was entering that website; thank you again

thank you. may i ask you the last question? since i'm not tech savvy, i'd like to learn of what happened and why is it semi-normal, can you explain it a bit more? thank you again

should i change my passwords?

now it doesn't, by copy-pasting it. when i clicked it through a google search it did

yes i'm collecting them, here they are AdwCleaner[S10].txt mbam log.txt

this is strange, i haven't visited anything weird and i have little to no stuff on this pc; i've done a format short time ago, mbam scans said clean... here's the farbar log FRST.txt Addition.txt

http://www.metagame.it when i tried to visit the website above, that i trusted to be safe (which i haven't visited for a long time), an ad page showed up instead of it. i've immediately closed it but it was a kind of fake samsung s9 prize. the strange thing is that mbam was silent. (browser: chrome Kaspersky + MBAM premium + mbam chrome extension) can you tell me, since i'm not tech savvy, what kind of threat is that and if i'm at risk and should i change my passwords? i made many scans but nothing was found tho

hello, sorry if i'm "necroposting" this, but it happened again and i really need your precious help! this time it happened on my computer (not on android), when i tried to go to a website that i thought it was safe ( which i didn't visit since a long time). a fake lottery prize pop-up happened. i immediately closed the website, but i don't understand why mbam block didn't show up. is it for the same reasons you wrote above on this topic? (browser: chrome, kaspersky + mbam, mbam extension on) the url is in the attached image (just google metagame.it to see it by yourself ) are my passwords and all at risk? @mbam_mtbr

@Vabadus mbam android ver. : latest on the google play store, as of 20/07/2018 , on both android models : huawei G8; Samsung galaxy S7 (both latest android system ver.)

hi, i've noticed recently that on my android devices (multiple) sometimes the mbam icon on the bar disappears. if i reboot it appears again. is it just me? it happens on multiple devices

Perfect answer, thank you

thank you @exile360, i contacted the support to see if those keys are legit, i hope they are (but i guess they are not, in that i case i've learnt a lesson) since i'm not tech savvy may i ask you, for curiosity reasons, where they got them from? i mean, in general, the process of "pirating" or "duplicating" stuff, they steal them?, they generate them?, how does that work, do you know it?

hello everybody! the question is: how do you know if a malwarebytes' license key is legit? some third party websites like Kinguin sell mbam keys that are usually lifetime keys and they even work! but, is it possible or where's the scam? can a mbam key be "duplicated" or "pirated" ? how does that happen? how do you see if a key is genuine or not? are those sellers illegals for malwarebytes' corp. ? thank you

today i started getting weird calls from unknown numbers, meanwhile mbam mobile keeps saying "mbam doesn't respond" each time i get one of those calls. i also tried to report those numbers through in-app but it crashed. is it me? what do i do?

alright, thank you guys ?? let me know as soon as possible, if you can

i think i've just had a false positive with the MB's chrome extension blocking Discord on browser, meanwhile nothing popped up from the MBAM3 Web Protection. How do i report it?

same problem here since this morning! what is going on? false positive or true?

in Chrome. just downloaded malwarebytes extension for chrome. looks good i'm also using kaspersky extension. can they have any conflict?

hi everybody, i've just updated Kaspersky internet security 2019, and i noticed it goes bad along with malwarebytes. Slow internet + kaspersky's anti-banner doesn't work properly. can a patch be made to fix this?

thank you very very very much!! @dcollins

any news?

here are my logs too, can you fix it soon? how long to expect a fix? if you need to recreate it, just launch any kind of game (ie. fortnite shows the problem with mbam very well), you'll see 3/4 seconds long freezes mbst-grab-results.zip

here are the logs you requested! also, i've tried turning ransomware-protection off and, yes, seems that it is the root of the problem! mbst-grab-results.zip

sure! i'll let you have them as soon as i can, thanks
