Post by: TalkStar on October 15, 2019, 07:09:43 PM Impressive investigation mate and you have already collected a lot of strong evidence against them. Most probably after seeing your post they are in a hurry to create new whitepaper and changing all fake things to prove us wrong. Such a cheap scam plan to steal investors money.
Tagged and flag supported from my end and they deserve more IMO. Title: Re: EthaGet - plagiarism / phishing website! Post by: mohamadreza bagheri on October 16, 2019, 04:10:58 AM thanks.another scam project.....
Title: Re: EthaGet - plagiarism / phishing website! Post by: Nesbee2 on October 16, 2019, 10:36:51 AM thanks for this investigations and discoveries, but in as much as i am not arguing whether this is a scam or not , but in the case of wallet , people are asked to create a new wallet on theri site so how do they intend to hack a new wallet that has no tother token order than theirs ? lol.
i think for anyone who wants to try their airdrop shoud be sure the only token in that wwallet is theri token and not use it for any oyher transactions or storage of any other assets. my oppinion though.

No, they are not! People are required to post a screenshot of their ETH address while they are logged in Ethaget. Take screenshot logged in to Ethaget wallet showing your ETH address Even if it was only to create a new wallet nobody should ever do so, especially on a website that less than 3 weeks old, with fake CEO/CTOs. which is also a copy of MEW, with plagiarized whitepaper offering strangers $500.

Post by: smyslov on October 16, 2019, 02:11:28 PM I have supported the flag and this is very alarming because they are cloning MEW, people should be very careful using MEW now because of the too many clones, anything that looks or try to imitate what MyEtherewallet design should be considered as a scam site, we have so many newbies who sometimes cannot differentiate what a true and fake online wallets are.

I'd really like to see this page flagged or even better...taken down (i've just issued a phishing report with google safebrowsing). https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/pulls Some additional results from urlscan down below: https://i.ibb.co/3RfDBnx/etha.jpg https://urlscan.io/result/17a54d38-a2cd-4f6b-934d-ee4a103234d4 edit; @dkbit98 Thanks!

Yes, you need Github account. Then you install Metamask extension and open webpage you want to see if it is blacklisted. I tried to open ETHAGET website, and Metamask has not blacklisted it yet. I will add it. |
