The domain name alone suggests a phishing website. But a lot of newbies fall to this kind of trap because they don't even search for the official website of MEW (https://www.myetherwallet.com/). Thanks for reporting this scam website here and hopefully, many newcomers will see this.

Yes, obviously this is a phishing email scams, but cyber criminals are still trying because they know that they can still victimised people because majority of them might blindly trust, specially newbies.

I didn't got a EAL warning, but I got the "Deceptive site ahead" error message when I go to that website. Thanks again for the fair warning.

This is what you get from participating in airdrops, they will get your email and they will send you phishing email, and if you are not aware on how a phishing site works you will be in trouble, so make sure that you are using a different email for your airdrops and do not use your main email.
