This showing by using any kind of extension in browser or just in a normal browse? Most provably if I am not you are using extension in your browser. Because just I try to visit with phone and it does not show kinds of error or phishing warning. # Always be serious when you download any wallet. It’s very sensitive. For a little mistake you can lose your whole life earnings. So be serious guys.

We have to report this sites, that the least we can do to: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en And thanks again OP, this is a good catch. Title: Re: [Scam]: Fake Tron Wallet Post by: cryptomaniac_xxx on May 06, 2021, 07:31:54 AM That website is still up, I suggest every one give just like less than 5 minutes of their time and report this to Google so that it will be taken down ASAP. That is the least thing we can do to clear the crypto space from this scammers and criminals.
I've sent an email already to the domain register as well, so let's hope that they will respond with a take down as well.

It probably took no more than 10 seconds making that report, so there's really no reason you shouldn't as well. Your action could save someone from losing their savings or worse. |
