Browsing the internet for updates on your favorite series can sometimes be quite costly. Used to entering franchise pages without checking if they’re safe, some fans recently learned the hard way about cybersecurity risks.

The production committee of The Vexations of a Shut-In Vampire Princess (Hikikomari Kyuuketsuki no Monmon) issued a public apology after confirming their official website was targeted by a phishing attempt. Several visitors encountered a fake authentication screen. The team took immediate action, and by June 9, the domain is fully operational again.

As a precaution, the team warned anyone who entered their login details into the suspicious window to change those credentials on all other services to protect their information. The community responded positively, thanking the team for their transparency and reminding others to double-check before sharing personal data.
