Thanks for the info. Even today, also to attention, there was a mailing, a free course of training cryptography, which allegedly costs $ 1000, where they offered to open a text document, and then received a bunch of viruses after opening the file, the attack of which is set to mail, wallets and passwords to exchanges! The information is not 100% but I think it will be useful!

This info is pretty good and it show how kind you are. There have been fake sites 
by scammers on internet of recent, getting too much. We should not because we are hunting for free coins then fall victim of activities of scammers. If we watch most of these sites carefully, we will discover that some letters gave dots either at the base or the top. It will be quite unfortunate if we fall for this.

Thank you OP. Reading about scammed people makes me sad and that's why I think most people are skeptical about cryptos. There's nothing to do against those scammers? Nobody can stop them?

Daneel project is good choice to invest in ico project. Its first idea based on AI.
However, i always stay away from airdrop because its more scam rather than legit. So i will stay away

This was posted on AirdropAlert sadly. Don't they do verifications first.

Anyway thanks for your information. I think people must see carefully for what they click, research and ask about the website validity.
Too much Phising and Scam Website come with absurd name. Example like you share, also Bitcointalk.to (It's phising site!)

you can obviously detects if the the airdrop was scam or true because the official telegram group of each project will announce if their having an airdrop or not and most important thing dont give some eth or donation because AIRDROP are free

that if you click the link in the email you are redirected on myetherwallet original site with a smart contract prepared to steal tokens from your etherwallet wallet


Thank you OP. Reading about scammed people makes me sad and that's why I think most people are skeptical about cryptos. There's nothing to do against those scammers? Nobody can stop them?
scam in cryptoworld is the same of a scam in real world, there are always a lot of thieves that try to steal what is yours. the only way to stop them is be aware of much as possible and be informed and first of all share and invest time in sharing with the community and with newbies all that you know.

only if we learn to share we can build a great community and make cryptoworld a safe and healthy place.

Thank you for the heads up. Recently, I got a lot of scam emails like this. Don't know how did these scammers get my email and my name.
I`m also receiving countless phishing emails and I suspect the reason is an airdrop registration or even a bounty registration (unfortunately, I took part in a scam ICO managed here, on Bitcointalk). Luckily I haven`t used my primary email for this.

very good choice, it's a good practice to have differents emails in order to avoid scams emailings affect primary and most important email accounts
