and they always thinking new ways how to trick and scam people... I test clicked DOWNLOAD (Do not try it yourself) and saw that scam is based in Russia, with fake browser file m9iyc.htm https://s8.hostingkartinok.com/uploads/images/2019/08/b6c9cc903dd4f847076210b6536fb16d.jpg PS I also reported this fake website to Google and Symantec https://urlscan.io/result/c09fd7bf-ac13-4ea2-8a19-20f2003c8e15#summary Title: Re: 🔴 [Brave Browser User - Be Careful] Brave Browser Imposter [Warning!] 🔴 Post by: bitmover on August 10, 2019, 09:58:39 PM Before downloading any program I always double check what is the official website. I know many website have mirrors, but there is always one of them which is the main. I always look for this one and then look for download.
Never click email links, unless you know that particularly email address and have no doubt about its origin Title: Re: 🔴 [Brave Browser User - Be Careful] Brave Browser Imposter [Warning!] 🔴 Post by: LTU_btc on August 10, 2019, 11:17:16 PM Email address of sender is first and probably main red flag in such cases. Big companies aren't using email services like Yahoo, Gmail and others to send their newsletters and other stuff. This time scammers made big mistake, strange why they didn't used their own domain brave-bounty.com to send these emails, it would make it to look more legit. But remaining things - they did it very professional and probably lot of people might fall into this.

So please be ignored
