Blockchain.info PHISHING ATTACK

[supine]

Hi guys.
I just wanted to let the public know that there's currently a phishing attack going on targeting blockchain.info.
I just got an email supposedly from blockchain.info stating that my wallet was credited with 0.54798743 BTC. So I quickly noticed that email address was not under blockchain.info domain. However, the email template layout was very similar to that of blockchain.info.
Also, when I clicked on the link, to check my wallet, the site I was redirected, had the same layout as blockchian.info.
Check it out.

If you look carefully, even though it looks very legit, their domain is https://blockchfain.info
There's that one letter 'F' that is hard to notice. Also, they seem to have all the other pages hosted by the actual blockchain.info.

Just keep an eye out for that and be careful before logging in if you get a similar email to this.
Also, another easy flag to identifying the REAL blockchain should be their SSL certificate. The real blockchain SLL certificate looks like the following



Good luck

Thanks for the information, I received an email too and there's a lot of phishing attack. There was a message that there was an excess ethereum to be distributed to those who are holding ethereum in their MEW, there was a MEW link attached, however, there was no indication that the site is MEW and it looked similar to MEW. Just be aware guys.

Thanks for warning others , There is one very important yet very simple rule all should follow , Never ever open your wallet from a link you received threw (mail , DM , chat etc ) , Only open your wallet , exchange etc .. from bookmark or by write it by yourself , And even after doing that always check for the https .

type your own URLs to the sites you use regularly.

Spot on. I am extremely paranoid when it comes to everything related to the internet, and for that reason I type the URL I am about to visit, check it 3 times to see if it's really correct, and then proceed. The thing is that people only learn when something has actually happened, and from there their paranoid towards everything internet related will only grow. Important is also the fact to use a different mail address for each and every site. I remember having signed up with my mail address in an app that allows you to play a game and earn Bitcoin. A month or two later I started receiving mails from various exchanges that my password was expired, and that while I wasn't even registered there. Very like the result of a database hack.
