I got an email and its safe to assume that the email was picked form one of the airdrops.

Not sure if this site is legit or not, however its safe to assume its not since the domain name was registered on 8/30/2017. Please don't provide your information for this airdrop as I did not read anything about free OmiseGo tokens.

Fake site: https://omisegotoken.com/airdrop/

Original Site: https://omg.omise.co/

No matter what, don't send any information to the above mentioned fake site.

Hope it helps.

Thanx for sharing this!

I remember some one already posted about the fake omisego site that asked your private key and he or she was giving his/her private key to the site and lost almost 50k dollar.
To bookmark the real site will be a very good advice for everyone in here.

This happened in several months ago, when omisego had first airdrop. If people are clever to find this site is scam, they wouldn't send the hacker private key. It is common sense that don't disclose priv key to anyone.

there are a lot of similiar site trying to get your private key,
do not believe what people say and always contacting the developer themself if you want to know about it,
and also join their social network to talk to one and another to prevent you from this kind of scam.
many people get scammed because of it,so be smart.

Remember their official website is https://omg.omise.co/
no more and no less than that,

If you need a warning to not give away your private keys, then you're really too stupid to be dabbling with crypto currencies (or computers in general). Maybe just stick to analog things for a while.

I saw this posted on twitter a while back.  I started the registration process and when it asked me for my private keys I laughed at the screen.  Part of the problem is that the OMG people were quiet on the airdrop procedure.  All the information they posted was that it was coming and nothing else, this left the door open for the scammers to step in with an official looking website.  Some guy on their twitter feed claimed to have fallen for this scam. 

First rule of Crypto - Your private keys are private for a reason. Whoever has them has access to your coins.

I have just had this same email come through, sender address is: team@omise-go.tech, links to https://omise-go.tech/airdrop/

Asking for your private key to be sent tokens.

Be careful everyone!

Why would anyone give there private key for a airdrop. Surely if you know anything about Cryptocurrency you should at least know that something is shady or wrong if the are asking for your private key.

I have seen this email stating that the needed my ethereum address and private key.  I advise anytime that someone emails your email and ask for your private keys, no matter how urgent or if they claim someone went into your account, DO NOT SEND YOUR PRIVATE KEYS>>>>>>>EVER!!!!!  Once you send those private keys, its over.  You mind as well pack up what you have and get a new Ethereum address.

Thank you for this advance notice mate,this is what we need here in crypto sharing all resources and feedbacks in regards to those scammers and hackers.this is one of the good move for information and education so the bad elements wont have chances of victimizing our mates.

I received this email too, it seems that there are some people who want to earn some free coins for now, wow, and there are some people who are believing in those kind of scams and they are putting their private keys in there, poor of them.
The same applies with those pishing emails from blockchain wallet and xapo, they all are the same, because all those people only wants your private keys and passwords, and of course, your funds.
Be careful people, they are scamming a lot at the moment.

thank you for this  information,friend. I hope nobody be victim of the fake website. we must be carefully , I agree with the opinions of other members that we must keep our private key well , don't give our private key to anyone . keep secret it ! if you want to secure your account.  ;)

Thanks for the warning, this statement sounds real adding to the fact that I just read a thread with the same topic:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2378848.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2378848.0). It's sad to see that some people just want to scam people their hardly earned money just like that. Its actually great to see that there are still some investors who have empathy for other investors, and don't want to see them going through what they went through, keep it up.

but honestly how stupid fuck someone have to be to give away his private key with any funds on it ?
This is 1st class crypto suicide.

Yes! I have an email same as! It request my private key to confirm!
I check again and close this web!

One would expect that about everyone on these boards understand this. The words "private keys" already tell the user...they key is private.

This shit is active again. Never share your private key. Never!

So don't believe anything.
Most of the time you should ask the authorities on the telegram group.
