Always check the spelling of sites before you access them via google. Nothing has changed, there will always be scum like this on the internet.
You should have 2FA on blockchain.info any way so you'd know it was a scam site any way.

I always type the whole address and I enable 2FA, but the main security feature I use is not to store large quantities of bitcoin on online services. You will never lose your whole hoard, if you keep more that 80% of it in cold storage. If you make mistakes like this, you will only lose small quantities and you can continue as normal. For day to day use, it is better to use a hardware wallet, like the Trezor. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I think it should also be reported to services that track malware, Malwarebytes etc.

It's funny since google adsense regime punishes regular users everyday, and things like this phising site seems to be ok.

That's it. When they have to pay, they are persnickety. But when someone's going to buy anything, they don't care to even check misleading links ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Google already has engine that corrects any typos in search terms, why don't they use it that way?

yeah, thats a pretty great scam attempt to be honest because the newbies that use blockchain wallet might get hooked to that and show their id and password
i think that people should be careful and check all the webpage details if its the right one or not, i mean this scam does not even work properly, only the open wallet button works when pressed
