Vouchercloud warning

Just got an email from Vouchercloud, asking to click to confirm my email address. Looked like any other email asking the same from comps. When I clicked to confirm I got this, from Chrome:

"This is probably not the site that you are looking for!
You attempted to reach https://www.gb.sprint.idldev.net, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as *.idldev.net. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of https://www.gb.sprint.idldev.net.
You should not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before for this site."

The Internet highway is a dangerous road to cross sometimes. Be careful out there guys.

    Yeah, I got the same email too but didn't click it.
  • Me too. Thanks for the warning.:eek:
  • Its no huge deal and certainly doesn't mean anything nefarious is going on. It basically means that the name in which an ssl certificate has been issued (name of the site) doesn't match precisely the name in the URl bar. Any little difference in this will cause this error to come up. It can happen even if the certificate is correct etc.

    I had three emails from them in the space of a couple of minutes but I knew I'd unsubscribed from them months ago so I didn't click on anything. Thanks for the warning though, I was obviously right to be suspicious! xx

    This is soooo weird, I came here earlier to post this, thought I had posted it, but then couldn't see it, so saw sillysally's post about it and commented on that one:
