Is This Another Scam Or What?

[fulled]

if you should sign a message, be aware, mostly its a scam, check the website address, make sure you sign in the right MEW site, because my friend was scammed with this modus

[airdagon]

I think you have to ask the team, DECOIN's developer or advisor, I am analyzing that DECOIN is a good project.

if they ask for your wallet address, I think you should be more careful. but, you don't conclude quickly. it's better to wait for information from the team.

That is an obvious phishing scam, they want your private key and password so that they can steal your portfolio from your original mew wallet, it is another lesson where we should stay vigilant and not even click the suspicious links.

[labake]

Smile, this is pure scam without any mix up which an experienced man in the industry would easily recognized. Don't enter your private key on any phising site. There are many of them out there trust me. Someone just need to be very careful with those fraudsters out there, they only wake up in the morning and keep thinking of different method of reaping people's of their hard earned money

[Harkorede]

That's definitely a phishing website, once you input any of your wallet private details into the provided text field on the site your wallet gets compromised and you're bound to lose every assets you have in it. Any campaign or airdrop that requires you unlock or submit your wallet private details is and will always be a scam!

[Adunni6758]

It is good you have discovered it. Which means that you have to be very careful. Thus is an indication that your email address is already with a scammer(s) and they will continue to make attempts towards spamming your email with more phishing sites. This won't be their last attempt. Then, clicking on just any link you see on your mail is not advisable, because you might be sent a malware.

I received a mail from DECoin asking me to verify that i am not a robot via their website and typing a message that will show that the wallet is mine. Unfortunately for them, I only applied for the bounty(explained how they got my email address) but i didn't do any work. So, I knew immediately that it is scam. I played along and clicked on the link in the mail, a website loaded and on this website(http://MyEtherWallet-checks.space/signmsg), i am supposed to unlock my wallet to be able to verify that i'm not robot, who does that I checked very well and saw that the site is like a clone of MEW.

I'm raising this issue because many like me would have gotten the message and some might not think twice before inputing their private keys. Although, i don't know if this is the norm. My question now is, can this be trusted or is it just another form of scam considering that the site is not secured?

Lastly, we really need to be careful of how we protect our wallets, so as not to get duped.


Note: I tried to reach DECoin concerning this and i haven't gotten any reply since yesterday

Follow your doubts yet those are actually real that they are scammers.Receiving some link or message which you didn't expect yet you haven't performed any task or work but they do ask specific thing that do connects with wallet verifications and other similar things then you should stop and think first before doing careless actions. No project will give out some phishing links if they do then that team is totally a fraud.
Don't expect for them to reply on you since you had bust them out.

Don't click any link from email, most of them is not safe or fake, I think you're crypto newbies because the link you post is not official Mew website, it's just a clone website and wait for people key in their private key and you will lose you money, go to check project telegram channel and bitcointalk announcement thread for upcoming update, never click link from email

[Bunk67]

Many scam project someone will surely fall into there hand of scam ICOs someone just need to be wise and invest little money someone can give out

[Cyptobonds1]

That's clearly A scam mail never fall for such again and don't believe project who later send you a verification link when you don't open any newly account with them. Most links these days are spam link some are virus to hack your devices and some are fraudulent mail where it leads you to where you input your details manually yourself

Try to read and understand what the OP has post buddy. Decoin is not a scam project and OP is trying to make us aware that a scammer is sending him/her email that will lead him/her to a phishing website and if the OP will give his private key then his done. Moral of the story is never give up your private key to anyone you never know or trust. Not even to your partner in life  .

You are right mate, the best thing to do is ask the team through telegram for updates. Though i got a feeling that it is some sort of the bounty's team fault because they are exposing the bounty participants email on the spreadsheet giving way for scammers to fraud the participants. Glad that they already hide the email add but i think it's too late.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Any sane people with healthy logic would find out that it's nothing but a phishing attempt done by phisher but what worries me is that there's large amount of cryptocurrency user that know nothing about sort of thing and blatantly trusting anything they see on the internet.
If you can, it's always better to report such site to google or antivirus so that it could be blocked automatically.

Such a link is obvious is a phishing experiment, the right step that you move quickly when is to stop accessing the website, if you just paste your secret key there, maybe now the assets in your wallet are gone. Things like this are usually often encountered in e-mail

[xuan87]

If the site is looks like mew site but it's not,then it's absolutely a scam site, the person try to steal your money through phishing site, there are numerous of scamming attempt by luring the victim into phishing site, and by clicking the link sometime you already fall into the trap

[Saisher]

Any clone of myetherwallet or mistypo in their domain is considered a phishing site so don't login in here there, or you can do so with an empty wallet, we don;t know if they are the one doing it but if it comes from their official email then one of the team tries to hack your wallet and they should not be trusted for this.

It is the responsibility of the bounty manager to not exposed the email address of it's participants to the public. It is also our responsibility to protect our money from scammers so if we receive emails that ask to give our private then you know drill, don't ever give up your private address online to someone you don't know.

People are greedy for easy money. You should watch out. Most everything you need to know about crypto schemes is available with a quick Internet search. The crypto community has been absolutely fantastic, actually, about policing itself. These people know full well that government will never be effective in preventing fraud in this space.
More and more scams appear on website , in telegram groups , in mail on exchanges .....

[Ducky1]

In your case, this is a clear scam. Developers will not ask you to unblock your wallet on a phishing site. Contact DECoin developers directly via telegram chat.
