    Every few hours or so (haven't timed it exactly), as I have the game in system tray, Malwarebytes occasionally blocks the launcher for attempting to send an outbound connection it detects as a phishing attempt.

    Blocked Outbound Connections Destination: 89.248.171.137 Port: 50001
    File: C:\Users\MyUserName\Desktop\GamezBD Launcher\GamezBDO.exe

    Should I be concerned about this? Of course asking here, on the forum of the launcher a supposed phishing attempt happened may be pointless if it was a real attempt. Just trying to figure out the possible purpose.

    It's false positive. If your antivirus detects the launcher as a virus, try adding it as an exception.
