Hi everyone, I keep reading about stolen wallet, sometimes encrypted, sometimes with hard to break passwords, etc. People all claim high security, but it happens. Recently, I noticed a PM I received in the forum. It claimed to be about something I was not related to, but attempted to phish me like I was a customer. I looked at the link and it made no sense. It was probably a link to download and install maleware. If I was a hacker trying to steal wallet files, I would seek them where they all gather, on the bitcoin talk forum. If I could get people to click on my links, then I'll have my trojans installed. I'm certainly not one of those types, but I could see this as a way to get free bitcoins from users on the forum. All i'm saying is to be careful around here, because some trolls are installing trojans from links directly from these boards. Always scan the links first, if necessary type them into google search first, to see what comes up. Use a virus scan to scan links that are suspicious, and finally, Get a Trezor wallet when it comes out. It will probably be the best thing around, to secure your bitcoins. Methinx. Maybe this will save someone some serious losses.
