So recently my friend shared me a link of potential threat to my minecraft server, he found link of store for a "malicious force op tool", opened it with vpn and they have some very high claims havent tried it neither wish to if anyone tries to open please use VPN or Private Browsing for safety of IP or cookies or if the webpage itself has any vulnerability exploit.

What should i do to keep myself safe from such threats?
or
Is it even a threat or just some scumbags trynna prey people?

I can send link if anyone interested in investigating, its name is ecstacy club.

It's essentially a backdoor thingy, dw you're safe if you don't use plugins from random and non-trusty sources, do note that even SpigotMC has viruses etc, they don't check the free resources thoroughly

#

Some trust worthy sources to download plugins would be, ofc BuiltByBits, Modrinth and Hangar

There's also an exploit for cracked servers, so if you're running one, you gotta have a good firewall to only allow connections to your backend servers from your proxy(bungee/velocity) only, if you're running velocity then you're already safe from it as velocity has something called secure handshake(not sure, don't remember correctly) to prevent it
