I encountered one time I received an email of airdrop that needs to put my private key to get my airdrop. So I ignored it and put in trash.

It just like I received etherdelta warning in my email that someone login my etherdelta account, I smell scam in this email, etherdelta is not requiring email when you open your myetherwallet account. Scammer knows our email by joining shitty airdrop so be careful what you join in airdrop guys.
Very often I receive such letters. Even on those electronic addresses that did not shine for crypto currency. We just spam. We all know this fact that the market is full of scammers and that we need to be very much careful regarding such kind of emails as most of them are scam and will ask for our credentials like that of private key or anything like that. There is no such need of opening that email or replying that you can get in trouble by doing so and that you need to be very much careful regarding all this.

It is worth to be careful in matters of network and monetary security. As practice shows a lot of people whose goal is to become rich due to theft. For this reason, carefully study those projects in which you register or where to enter your data this applies to the KYC.

I nearly felt victim of such a trick embarked upon by scammers while checking my mails I saw a link from MEW asking me to claim some of my tokens fortunately I have read lately from this forum of phishing sites used by scammers to hack into people's account I promptly deleted the link to avoid touching stories.

I already had trouble with some phishing sites. They are all parasites in this world. So we better be careful and guard our hard earned tokens. So better double check before clicking anything

I never got an email from myetherwallet. Also i never give an email to myetherwallet thats why i never got an email from them. Its most probaby a phishing attemp. Never click the link inside.

It’s obviously scammers and hackers are really trying to move to the Crypto community. Any phishing link is not expected to be clicked on by any one managing his or her wallet himself. Someone would just wake up overnight and observe all funds in a wallet have gone to land of no return. Let’s just be very careful and mind the kind of link we click on. Thanks

No one would give their private keys unless they are too eager to earn that they don't even think about the effects and other consequences that they'll get. Clicking on a phishing email is just like that, those Hackers/scammers will find any other ways to stole your coins.

I never trust ANY mails from ANY projects, because of guys who want to fraud you every now and then. I hate ICOs which send a contract address through mail, I always recheck any significant information at official sources. The main rule is never click on links which lead to wallets. In 99% they are phishing attempts.

Just remember don't give your private key to other people, airdrop no need private key, only provide public address, I never trust it and immediately put in trash , for security I never click any link from email

It is a scam, an act of phishing attempt trying to steal your private key or an attempt to install malware. Never click on random links or any in your email. I have signed up for many airdrops, some only ask for public Eth address and some ask for an email also along with your public key. Well if the airdrop is a scam they usually sell your email address to bad guys out there or use it to trick people. Well, there is also fake MEW app on google play store and today MEW tweeted and requested google play to take down the app as MEW don't have any android app. So as you can see hacker usually try to find many ways to scam people. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

I've also received an email from website similar looking to myetherwallet, they were asking for my private key. These are phishing attempts to hack your wallets. Be safe guys.
You will keeping on receiving such kind of spam emails in the future as well. Do not even think of replying that email no matter how convincing and threatening that email is as this is a technique used by the hackers in order to gain access over your private key. If you somehow replied to that email, then you will never be able to see any of your crypto coin back in your account. So think well and stay safe.

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.
this kind of MODUS is what we must took care,lots of style and strategies those scammer will provide just to victimized us since most of the site they are using are trusted and legit.so for us not to be one,should do precautionary measure in everything will across our screen SCAM link.it's just like a phishing link .and they stole your private data like private key,password,login details.etc.so never press these type links.i also received my fake mail,scam links everyday.they offer us free coins,altcoins,airdrops,btc,usd.some times these type links offer us huge discount in online shopping.they all are professional scammers.never trust any types of links otherwise you lost all your funds.bookmark your daily visit websites and secure your funds.

Thank you for pointing out and post this thread here to help people who will read this post. Pay more attention to any Emails or chats, official MyEtherWallet does not require you with private key. When you received, the first thing is to check if it is the official one. And check if your tokens are lost. Please be carful.
