I will edit that to just let people know not to fill in their seed phrase on any platform as it is very risky.
It doesn't stop to amuse me why people would do that — fill in their password or pass phrase on something that exposes them, but refuse to hand over their car keys to total strangers. You're wondering the connection in my analogy with your comment? Both scenarios are the same. They smack of stupidity for folks who do them.

The way the PCS team reacted immediately on the DNS attack further reinforced my confidence in the team, honestly. They were up and doing and constantly updating users on their social media handles on the situation. At first, I didn't know there was an attack until I tried buying stuff on the site through a DApp. Once I saw my platform looked funny and unusual, I quickly closed it until I realized there was an attack. I think that should be anyone's reflexes at a discovery like that, and not try to force oneself to use the services if one thought it has been compromised.
Some stupid users still believe and still use it despite warnings from the PancakeSwap media channel. I also don't know what to say and just smile, don't understand what they think when providing seeds, find out that they are trying to sell the coins they just received when joining IDO, and their greed makes them lose their own information.

Becarefull of this attack, attack like this happen in 2017/2018 to etherdelta and a lot of people secret key ethereum wallet got stolen, rules number one " never hives your secret key or phaseprase to any website in the world, this attack is only to pancake DNS.
thanks for the conern but it did already happened and for sure there are still people that got scammed because they just agree and follow all that they saw even though attack like this are not new  .

it was still phishing same happened to etherdelta however the method of login was a bit different because this one here uses seed /phrases while on etherdelta i think that was private key. we need to use safer logins  and we should check if we are in the true site to avoid getting hacked/phished .

Do not be worried, if you do not share your seed with anyone and just keep it a secret, also your private key as well, that means nobody could steal anything from you, there was an attempt but it would stay as attempt as long as people are careful what they are doing, it is not that simple to steal from someone as long as that person is not willing and trying hard not to get hacked.

There are people who are gullible enough or were just not careful and shared their info and those people need to change accounts, those people could be hacked into and hackers could empty their wallets as well, that is a sad thing and shame that it happened, but if you were careful nothing would happen. From this problem we should also face unrekt.net and you will see which places you gave the right to connect to your wallet, you will at least realize it and delete some rights if you want to.
