The Pirate Bay's famous name is being exploited by hackers as a basis for some social engineering attacks, a security firm has warned. A number of clone websites have been set up taking advantage of the controversial service’s name, Sunbelt Software has warned. The official URL for Pirate Bay is thepiratebay.org, but some of the fake ones have been named thepiratesbay.org, piratesbay.com and thepriatebay.org. Worryingly, the false piratebay.com address ranks highly on Google searches for “piratebay” and fourth for “pirate bay.”
