I got an email about fixing up a Hub for a niche site. I made the changes and when I clicked on the link to submit I got a pop-up warning that said Phishing Link Blocked instead.
Closed browser. Cleared cache. Scratched head. Signed back in to HP. Everything went fine. For some reason the link generated a warning the first time, then worked as usual.
Just putting it out there for the HP Team and in case anyone else sees this. Maybe it's on my end, who knows.
Very interesting to know. Might be something went wrong. Were there any ads adjacent to the clicking point when you clicked? It is good that the pop-up was blocked.
Anyway, glad to know no damage done and all went fine.
No ad. It was just the link to submit the Hub for the niche site. It only happened once, but I thought I'd put it out there.
