I think there's a slim chance that people will fall for it because of the link itself and when you open the link, there's an error too. We can report it on Google (https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en) and CryptoScamDB (https://cryptoscamdb.org/report). May we know where did the link come from?


I will leave this message from MEW (as a reminder for readers), it was posted on twitter months ago:
Fake sites, #scams, #phishing may never go away, but you can keep your funds secure by remembering:

MEW will NEVER email you first, and we will NEVER ask for your access information.

Bookmark our site, use MEW CX or download as PWA. And never, ever give your keys to anyone!

Probably they decided to maintain this site and used it to scam crypto enthusiast. So everyone be careful, specially that the holiday is approaching, criminals are just around the corner too.
