It's really simple. Use MyCrypto instead of Myetherwallet. It's made by the same team, It looks the same and it has more improvements so there is no reason why you wouldn't use it.
I haven't seen a single phishing attempt yet targeting Mycrypto, most likely because hackers are not really aware of it as of now as not many people use it. Either way, the domain name is shorter so It's unlikely that you'll fall it.
Because my crypto was creating an offline wallet and then the team was disabling the possibility to use the online privatekey wallet. That decreases the amount of phishing site because the new users will be redirected to download the latest offline wallet of mycrypto and this what i call that as a reliable team

I agree with you, it is not really advisable to use your private keys on any site not just on myetherwallet, even if you want to use myetherwallet to access your wallet, I will advice you connect it using metamask which will provide more security.

are you sure about that? even yesterday I was still accessing Myetherwallet and nothing happened as long as my pc was healthy and installed anti-virus.

When someone intends to hack (Phishing) accounts, I think they have a more interesting way. And that could have happened to Mycrypto and didn't know anyone to be the target. So actually Myetherwallet also has good security, it's just that sometimes the victim is in a bad mood because his wallet is cracked. But your advice is also good and you need to give thanks.

It is actually happening most of the transaction so I ive making transaction in here. I am always making sure my money that will go to the safe hands of the collectors of each ICO. So that I can be feel good making my money secure in every transaction by simply being active and alert all of the time.

I guess one day the hackers will start to aim mycrypto, therefore I think it is important for the users to learn to secure their wallets and be careful.

If it gets more popularity, people will also start to create phishing link for mycrypto. MEW is far popular and more used than mycrypto. By the way, it seems you are promoting mycrypto rather than having a healthy discussion.

thank you for sharing the new wallet, but I still use myetherwallet for now, you should bookmark the site of MEW so that you will not get hack, many MEW phishing nowadays so check the url carefully if it is the official one just bookmark the MEW.

Why would I use MyCrypto if I use MEW perfectly? My address in MEW is tied to many bounty campaigns and I'm not going to change it. You just need to add the site to bookmarks in the browser and never show your private key. Hackers are constantly improving their skills and I don't think MyCrypto is immune to hacking.

if it's a new version that has been improved from various aspects of course I want to try it because I like myetherwallet and I believe in developers so if I am made from the same developer then I will not hesitate to use it, but the problem is whether I can receive tokens reward? because I am a bounty hunter

Now is the time that 100% can not be trusted to anyone. I don't know why you think that MyCrypto is harder to hack than MEW. If they want to hack - then they will hack you
That is true , and also remember that their are hackers that are always exploiting the system and trying to find loopholes in it. To these people it does not matter what kind of system or new technology it has if they want to hack it they will hack it and that is why companies like Microsoft, Facebook and other big companies over the net are paying big for there security, though there will be still loopholes in it.

Thank you for the info, friend, but I still use myetherwallet, and as long as it's safe, as long as our private key is not given to others
That's true and me too still using myetherwallet and never get into trouble as long as we store our privatekey safely. And most importantly bookmark the myetherwallet site. this adds a reference to me, that there is something safer than Myetherwallet. all depends on someone, for those who are already accustomed to bookmarking important links it will reduce the risk of phishing links.

There are a lot of fishing websites and scammers on Telegram, that are using different tricks to get to your personal information. Never provide your private info to anyone and stay away from such scammers on TG.

What an advise LOL! It's not that hackers do not know about MyCrypto yet (they probably know about it already) but it's maybe taking them more time to find a way to hack or they are not yet interested at all.
Anyway, thanks for the reminder. I was planning to create one earlier but totally forgot about it.

I have tried it, is it possible to send ethereum without downloading app? I couldn't find it. Both are very similar wallets, both are safe in my opinion it only depends on users what they will click. I check link before entering private key so I have never been fished.

Everything that is on internet are not safe. So if you want to use safer wallet go use hardware offline wallet. Blackhat Hackers is everywhere.

The best thing to avoid phishing is to bookmark MEW official website..Store the private key in the USB, don't just save it into your desktop or mobile phone.

That we have not started seeing the phishing sites of My Crypto does not mean hackers are not aware of it. We still need to be very careful before clicking on any site. You never can tell how hackers will come in and it might be a time we least expect. If you already know the original sites of most of them, you can just bookmark.

Thanks for the information that you given to us. This is means we need to be careful when we try to visit to other website because maybe sometimes it not true website or pishing site. Always check first before you log in because once you log in maybe you will be lost.
