Thank you for posting this, OP. There is another case of someone losing $45,000 a few weeks ago when they downloaded an ETH wallet from a similar site and got scammed. It is unfortunate there are so many bad apples in crypto... :/

OP you should update the post to not include the website so that people don't accidentally click and potentially get a virus.

We do not want these scammers to make extra money from your post.

I hope you didn't lose too much ETH, OP.
Next time be very careful about which website(s) you visit.
Just because a site ranks #1 on Google doesn't mean it is safe.
You should ask yourself if it looks professional and are others talking about it.
If people reported it as a scam or you are suspicious, do not download anything.
Thanks for reporting it here I am sure you will help someone. Smiley

Sorry for your loss, next time check for an SSL certification, it's shown right next to the link and always starts with https. Also, you could use ScamAdvisor if you are still not sure.

Thank you for sharing this info, I hope the OP didn't lose a lot of his coins though but we should be very careful in transferring our coins to online wallets because a lot has been created for phishing. A friend of mine was victimized by this sites, good thing it was only a little amount of Ethereum.

There have been some bad reviews about www wallet-ethereum net posted on this section in the past and i must agreed with other people that your post further confirms that wallet-ethereum net is a scam site.

Thank to all for support. I don't care much about this loss. It was clearly my mistake. Before taking any step it should be learned about.  This website is still active despite I wrote to https://www.econsumer.gov and Google.

Actually, this is the first time I've heard about that wallet since what I'm using is MyEtherWallet and Exodus to store my ETH. But still, thanks for the warning, guess it is best to stick with a reputable wallet or wallet that is reliable and has strong support from their developers than to try wallets that you have no certainty if it is legitimate or not.
