I received a text from an old friend with a reddit link and without thinking about it, I clicked it. Responded, received nothing back - no big deal, whatever.
He does have a sneaky past and today I noticed the /s/ in the link below, so I opened it in a sandbox and received the reddit white-hat robot stating "You've been blocked by network security"
https://www.reddit.com/r/<subreddit>/s/<10 random letters>
When manually going to the subreddit - the post still exists.
Was the phishing link deleted after I fell for whatever trap?
I searched for reddit "/s/", but can't find anything.
Really hoping to learn more
