It has come to my notice and also to @halla’s notice that some fraudsters are sending mails to artists with offers pretending to be from official Krita team or Foundation. They have registered some domains like Krita.io which redirect to official .org domain. This confused people and tricks them in believing that the mail they received is from official team.
I would like to make everyone aware that these mails are fraud mails and if you receive any communication from Krita team which originates from the email address other than foundation@krita.org then please mark it as spam and report for phishing. Also spread this word to your friends who may have got such mails.
Maybe add a big banner on krita.org to inform about that.
I think most of Krita’s users are not in krita-artists.org or don’t follow Krita Paint App on twitter and are not aware of problem.
If the krita.io redirect to krita.org then people who follows the link can be informed directly of the problem.
Also, add this as a news: it will be available at krita’s startup for whom have activated the news in thread in Krita.
