Can someone explain why when you type in binance on google or other similar sites the first link or two links that shows up on the top are the google ads links with the supposed site?  Why has those not been taken down?  Because if you are not careful, you could easily click on it like the original poster.

Personally I think google does things automatically, unless we report it and they investigate it!

next time you should be more careful in accessing all trading sites.
before binends, poloniexes and bittrex were the two big makets that often got similar problems.
I read a lot of this.

hopefully you get a lot of experience from this.
support binends are the best at the moment.
but I'm not sure if I would accept such a thing for their site.

Thanks OP for sharing your experience. I've been reading up all sorts of things and it freaks me out how easily can ppl get hacked. How long more to read before I feel safe to invest?  Huh

You're not the only one fell into the trap like this and not only Binance, Myetherwallet also has the same kind of phising site. Only 1 careless second you can lose everything you earned for years. You should be more careful next time to not give any free money for hackers and lazy fucking guys just wanna hack money from other people anymore.
This is why it is important to always keep those kind of sites bookmarked, this should be done for all the websites where you can transact money or where you have an important account, so keep bookmarks of your email providers, paypal, your bank, the exchanges you use, your wallets and bitcointalk that way you will avoid the most dangerous phishing sites.

You are never safe in the internet, but you can make the cost and effort of being hacked high! Wink

It is always better to be careful logging into your account using Google. Save the URL somewhere and make use of most times

I'm just curious how these phishing sites succeed when binance requires 2FA to login? Even if they get your password they still need access to your phone too.

Holly molly I would never have noticed those two dots. Scammers getting more and more creative. This is just a reminder to be sharp, always.
So simple, but I bet that they have scammed a lot of people with this one.

These scammers are turning to pros. It's really bad to see this nor help the crypto.
Those two dots are very hard to see. I would fall for that.

Hm, it's very well thought out. My computer wouldn't let me to that site at first place, but people could be fooled very easily with this one.
I'm suspicious about everything and this is a good reason why.

Be careful with your property because there are now a lot of scammers by using site addresses like Binance to cheat investors. Use bookmarks and 2FA security to protect your account, which is the best way to avoid property theft.
