why did not you immediately be alarmed by the fact that the MEW sent you a letter? Why was it opened?

fill up their link with random decimal but it's too risky to consider the possibility of the spam email contains any suspicious thing just like malware. i just run my MEW wallet locally and then i never try to open my email and i ignore them all and that has already enough rather than wasting our time to the wasted effort.

Just ignore those messages and always caution in opening your wallet. If you detect a phishing site, just avoid it delete immediately all messages or if you suspected to get into their URL just leave immediately.

If we don't fall for these phising sites, they'll be paying for sending email and hosting their site but get nothing in return. The best way to tackle them is to not fall for them and help others from being scammed.

Be careful with emails that ask us to access MEW. He gives a link to take all of our tokens. My advice, do not access MEW with a link someone gives. I've been like that, in an instant my token automatically runs out of my wallet.

You need to contact with MEW team. You can tell them which resources are used to attack. And they will make a decision.

better not to open it once, just worry that if you open it , it might download some file that contains malware/virus.
leave it or you can actually separate email for personal and for cryptocurrency just like what i did.

Don't click it, maybe there's another thing that contains it like a malware and it's not only a phishing link.

Ignore them for your safety. I know your intention of being tired of receiving those fake MEW websites but it can also be risky on your part if there's something on their link that can be sent to the people who will click their link automatically.
