These are all phishing attacks. Ignore them, delete them and never under any circumstances click on any link inside them.

the end of this many hackers who spread fake web from myetherwallet. I suggest you just ignore it and never you click the link because it is phishing. if you click and enter your priv key on the fake web then your wallet will be hacked by hacker

Slackbot is sending a phishing site. It is giving a .co domain, the real site is using a .com, www.myetherwallet.com. There's a chance that slackbot in different groups are controlled by different users.

Always check the url before putting your private key, keystore file etc.

The original is considered safe and trusted by many ethereum users but it's also easy to clone from malicious parties. Be sure that you're always on the original website if you'd like to use the services.

Don't ever open the links that the slackbot is sending. They are attacking slack group from ICO's and is sending a fake link of MEW. Always check the spelling and the certificate should always be present.

If you didn't put you private keys in any fake page your wallet is safe.
Slackbots send phishing link with fake pages looking like myetherwallet to steal your private keys and you coins.
Be aware and be safe  Cool

It depends on what the Slack bot is telling you. What is the website link that it gives you? What is the Slack bot actually telling you?
You need to post that information on here so we can help you out on it.

Most Slack users have an issue with the Slack website because they are hit with fake website links that don't lead to the official website of myetherwallet.
Make sure that everything is spelled correctly and the right domain extension is placed at the end of the domain because people often confuse the two and get upset when their wallet gets hacked into.

Your ether wallet will be safe if you do not click on any links from slackbot. Currently I never again use slack, a lot of phishing there. Developers also seem reluctant to respond to this, but this is a serious problem.

Note: If you want to use slack, never click or open links carelessly, let alone about the information about our wallets.

would also add some degree of safety by downloading MyEtherWallet CX (Chrome eXtension)
and only open the wallet from that extension, never from unreliable posted links
though I'm not sure if this extension 100% hacker proof or not
can installed extension be infected or maliciously modified by attacker easily? anyone know?

Myetherwallet is safe but not %100. You see links in Slackbots, they are phishing attempts. They don't open myetherwallet, check links carefully. They make you to open fake sites to steal your private keys or passwords. Beware of anything that Slackbot send you. I don't know how they do that but they somehow hack Slackbots and send phishing messages to everyone.

If you see some strange information about service which you use especially if it requires to take some actions right now I would recommend firstly to check official web resources (official website, official social media facebook, twitter and so on) for presence of the same information in it.

Most people here do say the same thing which you should ignore it and dont ever tend to click those phishing links and would put your privatekeys on it because for sure you would really be hacked and those coins inside your MEW would really be lost once hacker would have an access to account.Just always see on the domain of the true myetherwallet they do use .com domain name.

With the existence of such situations make me so worried with this cryptocurrency world many irresponsible people misuse their knowledge in a way that is not good to make money, but it is very harmful to others
