Anyone else getting phishing attempts when logged into https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/?

I am getting a Bitdefender alert about once a minute:

We blocked this phishing page for your protection:

I have narrowed it down to https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/ by closing all browsers, killing all processes, and re-opening Plex.TV, logging in, and launching the app.

Do you experience the same alert after disabling all browser add-ons / plug-ins / …?
I’ve never seen this domain used with Plex Web.

Yeah. I am using a clean browser in a private window. And that’s the URL which is opened when I click the “Launch” button on plex.tv after logging in.

try a tracert on app.plex.tv

perhaps you have a poisoned dns server
