There's no way you will receive an email from MyEtherWallet if your tokens have arrived. If that's the case, that email is fake and it is not advisable that you should reply to that or else your wallet will be hacked and say "Bye-Bye" to all of your coins and tokens that you store there.

For you to know if those coins or tokens arrived in your wallet, you should be checking it manually by logging in from time to time. It is why MEW is so secured and making sure your coins or tokens are safe. Just don't believe in those phishing emails, okay?

During my period of use of the MEW wallet no one ever emailed me about airdrops.
Just because myetherwallet is just what I use when I'm earning a bounty campaign.

As Crypto.is getting famous day by day at the same time.it is getting difficult to keep safe

There are people trying to scam us. Have not recieved any such mail but i have been a victim of a scam or two and I can not tell how bad i felt after i lost my earnings earned by hard work and giving time to it.

So guys please stay safe and do not trust any person you dont know amd after recieving such type of mails please do some research about it.

I received an email from MyEtherWallet to claim some tokens of an airdrop I joined. Hovering my mouse over the link,  I discovered it's a link to another cgi scripted site.

Interestingly you don't create MEW wallets using email addresses.

Guys be careful and be vigilant.

If you did not become cautious i believed you will be send directly to the fake myetherwallet site or to a phishing site in which it will require your private keys for sure. We should always become more extra vigilant because nowadays hackers are now very active in which they usually target crypto currencies exchanges and wallets than banks.

most likely a phishing site that collects data and private key of your wallet.
just don't click any suspicious email. myetherwallet never send email to anyone.

That phising link so becarefull, i also received some phising email but soon i deleted. When i receive email from unknow party i never click that link, because i know many hacker exsist in crypto space. They know my email address from some bounty program that not hide my email address. So when your email address know by public just becarefull when click any link.

Myetherwallet don't know your email and simply can't send you messages. So be aware, just don't click on message links.

Be careful, cryptomarket is the new far west, and there is a scammer at any corner!
This is a very evident and childish one (myetherwallet doesn't know your mail) but in other situations it's difficult to detecn a no so clear scam.
IN doubt, be paranoid!

Yes, it's a clear scam, and I see more and more of them. Some of them are very stupid, but other are made by professionals, and it's very difficult to not be deceived.

That's the problem with some of these ICOs, they stupidly list the email addresses of all the participants in their spreadsheet, so that scammers and phishers have easy access to their information. Private information such as email address and other personal details should not be visible to the world, and should be locked in a private area of the spreadsheet. Any ICO not protecting customer privacy should not be trusted with it either.

more and more scammers, as well as phishing sites, to check the balance is better not to go to the MEW, you can check the balance on etherscan.io or deltabalances.github.io, it is desirable to enter the purse only from browser tabs.

It's just a scam.
There have been too many scams lately, and I've often seen twitter and telegram seeing EOS and various tokens Airdrop, but these are all scams.

I agree with you that something like above will remain scam accusion.
Dont ever believe someting like that. Email, slack, telegram also is very sensitive with scam. Hackers also around that.
Always becareful to follow something from unknow source.

I've been receiving this scam e-mail as well.  Earlier this week I've received one that was from MyWalletEther instead of MyEtherWallet.  Be careful, scammers are active all over Telegram and have contacted ICO whitelist e-mail addresses claiming to be the ICO and providing an ETH address for pre-sale.

You should always think before clicking on random links. In this case, does MyEtherWallet know your email? Of course not. In fact, it's very easy not to get caught by scammers.

i received to. it looks like there's someone who randomly pick Mail address from ICO bounty spreadsheet and trying to scam people. or maybe there's a scam airdrop who sold our mail address.
we should always double check sender mail address to avoid scammers via Email.

Its very showy that those email is a scam mate, just avoid it to be far from hacks of your myetherwallet. We dont use emails for our wallets in myetherwallet, yes. And also thanks for this information mate, so that public will be warn for this kind of style
