I use Metamask, it has automatically detected phishing sites like when there is a problem etherdelta and myetherwallet has been hacked. I tried to enter and immediately detected at that time. so my token is safe.

the most important thing is to keep the private key that we use to enter the myetherwallet account that we use with a very secret because it can happen from our own carelessness that does not keep the private key from the myetherwallet site safely. also you should never careless open sites that have a kind of virus that can damage the security system of myetherwallet it of course you should pay attention.

You can use a hardware wallet, like Ledger or something else. on Myetherwallet's site is highly recommended. because it is true security.

The best way to make this simple is, download imtoken to your phone.
import your myetherwallet and control affairs of your mew on the imtoken

Use metamask for your trade, install it to chrome, and send your coins there to trade.
That way you are safe, secure and no attack can overcome your mew.

The MetaMask is shown as the safest method of use, as warned on my ether wallet. Do your own research, but I'm using MetaMask and I'm happy.

The easiest way to avoid phishing is always check the URL, make sure the SSL certificate, bookmark MEW site, never access MEW sites from links sent to you randomly and install Chrome extension like MetaMask to access your wallet on MEW and block malicious websites

If you do not have a hardware wallet then use Metamask for more security. Also be careful when visiting unsafe websites.

Runs MEW locally will much better in my opinion. But just try to install metamask add-ons and this will be adding another layer to avoid the phishing or suspicious site that can steal our privatekey.
But in my experience, the majority of those are getting fucked due to the joined in various suspicious airdrop coins.

It seems to me that Ethersan is an excellent resource that helps to monitor the state of funds on the wallet. In this case, we do not risk so much.

I installed an extension in the browser that helps block suspicious sites, I think that this is quite enough. But there are so many hackers..

Actually if you don't want to download any extension in the google chrome you can bookmark the site. It is simple feature but useful, or you can use metamask that mention by others. But better you download metamask it's light, easy, and give you protection.

Phishing is typically done through email, ads, or by sites that look similar to sites you already use, so double/triple check the URL before insert your private key, be aware of google ads from search engine, don't click unknown link from email, get a hardware wallet and it'll keep your assets secure

If we talk about precautionary measures about using wallets, then you should be very careful when surfing in the Internet.

Protection against phishing, it is necessary at this time because it greatly reduces the possibility of losing money. You can use metamask and add MEW address to your bookmarks. Additionally, how to protect yourself, you can read in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3390635.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3390635.0)

I heard about the fact that Metamask is a very good opportunity to protect your wallet from attacks and hacking.

At first you will have to ensure the security of your private key that you need to login the account. Sometimes it happens that we mistakenly or due to carelessness keep our private key unsafe on the site. Sometimes you keep our account inline when we are not there. So keep your account offline when you are not there.

Sometimes the simplest way of protecting your funds are the best.

Bookmark MEW, write your private keys on paper and don't click unusual websites and always check the spelling and characters of the website you are visiting.

First you should be aware on the correct URL link of myetherwallet itself or either bookmark it into your browser so that you wont able to click other similar name phishing sites on google search. 2nd, having a clean computer which is clean from any malware or viruses, 3rd keep your keys as safe as you can either you do wrote it on a paper or store it up on a USB with either having 2-3 copies then store or hide it up into a place that no one knows or can steal it up.

myetherwallet never has problem with phishing attack, they are FUD.
Protect yourself and don't paste your private keys in strange sites because that way you make yourself vulnerable to attacks.

For security way, you can download imtoken and link it to your myetherwallet; that way you get to view your balances on imtoken any time any seconds, instead of just using myetherwallet.com site every time

So get modern and download imtoken app and stay safe.

I added MEW to my chromes extension and I don't get to import using my private key on decentralized exchanges instead I use Metamask which is equally added to my chromes extension.

To protect yourself from phishing on the Myetherwallet resource, use the METAMASK plugin.

You also need to check the ssl certificate (green bar)
