They're taking avantage of the lockdown since most of "us" are mostly in the internet right now. Using internet is the best way to avoid boredom while were lockdown in our houses. There are still more of fake extension when you look at the "Related" and "More from this Developer". Reported. ;) Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: libert19 on April 07, 2020, 03:39:12 AM There are fake coinomi extensions too, and if Google removes one other pops up right into the place. This is never ending cycle.
Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: BITCOIN4X on April 07, 2020, 03:51:05 AM Among the dangerous fraud attempts, fake wallet extensions are those that can be categorized as very dangerous for crypto users. The wallet extension available at the web store is directly related to the user's assets, whoever uses it will make all the assets in it disappear and be taken by fraudsters.
Users who are not careful might have the chance to get caught by this cheater trap, reporting it is the right effort so far because if the extension is still in the web store then I am sure there will be users who experience fraud. A little advice for TravelMug, you make a good effort to help the people here so they dont experience fraud. But I hope you can also show real extensions so people can distinguish them.

Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: notblox1 on April 07, 2020, 08:26:41 AM This is crazy! Thank you for exposing this.
There are more and more scam chrome extensions every day, and people install them without even checking. Chrome store must change some things Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: mk4 on April 07, 2020, 08:39:40 AM tldr; only download browser extensions from the platform's legitimate website. Don't go and search the extensions on the webs tore or on Google(especially if you're not using an adblock extension; if you're not, what are you doing with your life?). Fake extensions and phishing websites will come and go. At some point this section is just going to be filled with fake extension/website reposts.
Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: sheenshane on April 07, 2020, 09:29:44 AM We should be thankful to those our fellow members here in the forum who keep busting scam phishing sites or fraudster websites.
I saw several times OP posted scam reports and maybe it is good if you compile them all and make a list of if yours. Just like what @Baofeng did on this thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5238516.0), he/she made a compilation of all reports he had. Or maybe both of you might combine all your work in one thread. Anyway, thank you for the heads up here. I also reported it to google. Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: 1miau on April 08, 2020, 02:02:29 AM I'm still waiting for some fakes like "Meta Musk" and unfortunately, people will still fall for it. :'(
And that's much more obvious. In addition, low numbers of users and reviews are always a red flag (especially if the service is very famous). Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: cryptomaniac_xxx on April 09, 2020, 12:47:52 PM Legit Electrum
Code: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.electrum.electrum&hl=en Legit MEW Code: nlbmnnijcnlegkjjpcfjclmcfggfefdm Unfortunately, it was taken down by Google perhaps because of so many fake and malicious apps in Google store. Edit: Those fake sites has been taken down. Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: RapTarX on April 09, 2020, 02:31:40 PM Legit MEW What does that mean? I guess you have pasted some wrong contents. MEW= myetherwallet.com and that's the only site I know for MEW. What's your code referring to? Pardon me if I did miss something; I'm not much familiar with any other coins than BTC.Code: nlbmnnijcnlegkjjpcfjclmcfggfefdm Title: Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask Post by: cryptomaniac_xxx on April 09, 2020, 04:03:47 PM Legit MEW What does that mean?

And it has been taken down together with a lot of fake MEW. Probably they are purging everything related to MEW and it was just sad that the original and legit extension are affected. But I'm sure that MEW are going to work with Google to reinstate their apps. Sorry if I didn't make my self clear in the beginning.
