Since Stellar is also making a good spike in this latest altcoin bull run, criminals wanted to take advantage by creating this very similar Stellar phishing site.

[Kemarit]

The website has been taken down already, I'm glad that the domain registrar took it very quickly because obviously this is a very dangerous site. But we might see another attack in the future, altcoin has been rallying as well together with Bitcoin.

So I will not be surprised if there will be MEW, ADA, XLM phishing sites so be very on the alert and report it here so that together we can report the sites to Google or the domain registrar themselves.

Once you click Get Started it downloads you this:



I have no idea what it is, but it's mostly a malware/virus. So, be aware! I hope I caught it up, when I clicked "close".

[wildan88]

Things downloaded from such sites are usually also full of viruses. Or a horse. It is quite easy that it is then installed on your PC and registers everything with a keylogger, for example.
Then you don't realize anything, but behind the scenes most of it takes place and then they can access all coins and other passwords of accounts.

Again, I found a fake giveaway site from stellar, after I did a search, it turned out that this domain was not yet publicized here.

Don't download anything from this site because a virus has been planted in it, this site was only created 9 days ago.

Did I cut it up? I hit cancel, I hope I'm clean.

The second site is still up and running, and yes it contained a malware/trojan:



So don't click "Get Started" as it will download the malware to your PC.

Get your anti virus ready and scan your computer because malwares are one tricky program that can hide itself. If you can, reset your computer to default, the problem with these one is the files on your computer will be deleted too. Advice for you, if you were to do this again in the future, fire up some Virtual Machine so you can be at ease when you are opening one, make it two layered VM to be extra safe.

How can this happen? I mean, what can a file with no extension do? Especially if I hit closed early. I ran the Anti virus and it found nothing suspicious. Do I still have to be afraid of anything?

I do not have that much experience with cybersecurity so most of the replies there are just a paranoid precaution because I do not know a lot about malwares and stuff like that but I know enough to know that they pose a real threat. Hopefully, you did not get the malware as you have mentioned that you have closed the download early and a good thing that you did scan your computer, but beware because all malwares are not created equal, some pretend to be a good file or worse an armored virus. Heed my advice about using VMs for this kind of things because I know that you are a curious one. And yeah, don't be afraid of anything, you did what you can to prevent the entry of the malware right? Don't second guess yourself.

They really are a persistent bunch, having create another website after having their 2 previous website taken down means that they won't be going down without a fight. I can interpret this as a sign that they are trying to fight the scam busters through attrition. The one who lasts will be the one that will be declared victorious. Hopefully they lose a lot of money from hosting this websites because afaik hosting costs a lot of money.

I was Scammed by these a$$holes. I receive lots of email from Stellar and I don't know how I let this one slip thru and didn't pay attention.

The link on the email takes you to this PAGE. https://stellar.org.lc/blog/introducing-the-stellar-community-staking-competition/

Why in the hell do these exchanges take your entire life's documents such as Drivers License, Passport and pictures and then not tie it to send and receive addresses of the person who created the account so they can be tracked? If this were done, we could track the perpetrator of such scams. Oh, wait, it is because it can be forged and fake accounts can be created! I get it! So now we know why the following is going to come true. Satan hates when anyone steals from him, so he is going to make sure you can't.

"Then I saw another beast come up out of the earth. He had two horns like those of a lamb, but he spoke with the voice of a dragon. He exercised all the authority of the first beast. And he required all the earth and its people to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. He did astounding miracles, even making fire flash down to earth from the sky while everyone was watching. And with all the miracles he was allowed to perform on behalf of the first beast, he deceived all the people who belong to this world. He ordered the people to make a great statue of the first beast, who was fatally wounded and then came back to life. He was then permitted to give life to this statue so that it could speak. Then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die."

"He required everyone—small and great, rich and poor, free and slave—to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead. And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name. Wisdom is needed here. Let the one with understanding solve the meaning of the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is 666." Revelation 13:11-18

"So the first angel left the Temple and poured out his bowl on the earth, and horrible, malignant sores broke out on everyone who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his statue." Revelation 16:2

"Then I saw thrones, and the people sitting on them had been given the authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony about Jesus and for proclaiming the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his statue, nor accepted his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They all came to life again, and they reigned with Christ for a thousand years." Revelation 20
