There are lots of phishing sites today and really looks like the real ones. And I don’t think Myetherwallet sends out emails to their customers who registered the site. Just make sure it is the correct website though and always double check them. That’s also one of the reasons why I don’t really participate in airdrops, it’s like you’re inviting people to scam you or something.

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

Yes, this is warning to all that our private key is only ours and never used by any other airdrop or whatsoever. Myetherwallet didn't emailed you anything about airdrop, by then I'll stop joining on airdrop. So be careful guys and reminders to all of us, never click any links to your email.

Well thanks to this forum it gave me the intelligence about this kind of attacks.
It had been known before and I stopped opening such links like that which are obviously scams.
It will be directed to the trash once I saw the title of the mail.
Yes, be very careful with this types of syndicates, they must be really hungry to do such things like this.

Better not open it from the start if you think it is not for you, dont believe too good to be true mails.

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.

Scam... MEW and other wallets never send E-mails. Especially about the claim of airdrops. These days scammers everywhere. Most of them active in the telegram. 2 times I got scam emails. Not much in Email. But in the telegram, I got at least 2 per week. Most of them use original admins profile picture and  then they hide their username or use an extra same letter. Best avoid them is take a screenshot and sent it to official telegram group or send it to official admin. then they confirm that scammer. Be careful guys. Crypto world is very weird.

I, myself also received e-mails and many messages in my twitter account, but I didn't dare to click any of those links. I put caution to myself that I will only open trusted emails and messages to avoid online phishing. Scammers are all around let's all be careful, if we don't want to lose everything.

MyEtherWallet unless they have advertising on the official website? I don't have it in there, see if you hit a Scam site.

Well, this is a banal Scam, fishing it is called. Hackers don't even try to hack someone, they fill this thing from which they themselves are funny, but however it works and people lead. And you can read it in 5K characters about the safety difficult, but to extinguish thousands loss the easy part .

I also have received an email like that and it is a scam. Myetherwallet never send an emails and we should extremely careful from that scam emails. It is just an phishing attempt and do not send any details to them. Just save the correct MEW address to your web browser and always log from it.

Obviously it's a phishing link sent to you, because until now MEW has never sent us emails and we make MEW wallets also do not use email how MEW emails us for security reasons in our wallet, really funny era of scams now but the funny still many are also stuck with a model like this.

You have to be careful, with more and more scammers every day. You must remember the simple rules of security. Keep your data only on USB flash drives. Install the antivirus. Never click on links and do not download files from the Internet

Constantly deceivers are trying to deceive us somehow) Maybe you'll create a separate topic on some popular site with screenshots and description of how it was. I think that many will be grateful to you for such information. Thank you for your warning personally)
