Now I am using rather Metamask than MyEtherWallet, but  in times when my main wallet was MEW I've always downloaded latest release from MEW github repository and launched it locally. This is only one really safe way to ensure your security.. there was even an issue with original MEW domain, which DNS was hacked and pointed to another server and many people lost their coins.
So if you are using MEW always launch it locally using files from github!!

I am looking for signature campaign Wink pm me

Good catch OP and thanks for warning us. Scammers are always trying to harm us in one way or another. After reporting, one website was shut down, but after a few days, scammers are opening new websites again. We have no choice but to be vigilant to protect our asset.

This is only one really safe way to ensure your security.. there was even an issue with original MEW domain, which DNS was hacked and pointed to another server and many people lost their coins.

I also remember the time when I just started to get acquainted with the world of cryptocurrencies and used only MyEtherWallet, sometimes it was very difficult, especially when it was necessary to do token SWAP. Plus, I was constantly afraid of phishing and checked the reliability of MyEtherWallet several times before the transaction. Then I installed Metamask and token transfers became much easier.

Myetherwallet has now become a lot of phishing targets so we don't do more research so we will be fooled by losing lots of assets, therefore we only people who understand and can do this are careful.
Sometimes now sending tokens is simpler because there are already many wallets in the form of applications that are widely available on the PlayStore, even I am more comfortable using TrustWallet compared to other storage, it will make it easier for us and won't get caught in the many scattered phishing sites.

Fake MyEtherwallet Website.
Such websites seem to be quite real but it can be only identified by the domain name. So before you log in, make sure that you are on the real website.

Here we have another phishing website of Mew wallet. Newbies should pay attention to the domain name of every popular website, so they don't get caught in such a scam.

now that Ethereum climbs so high ? sure that MEW will be another target again , back in the past when the increase happens in 2018 ? there are so many hack attempts and some had succeeded that's why MEW had tighten their security and the result is the updated site of them now.
Good thing that i have using Ledger Nano now so all my assets are safer not like in the past that exchange is the main target and yeah they won over many users and taken their coins with huge amount.

Is there any risk if you go to these sites but don't type in your seed?  Like do they give malware/trojan/keylogger just for visiting the site?  Does it download anything automatically to your computer when you go to these sites?

There's no risk if you dont do anything or just simply surfing it out, the risk is on when you do believe that this is the legit site and you had type the seed or key of your own wallet
which means you had been phished.

This is a common scenario where scammers or hackers do really make use of this bait where noobs is usually been the victim due to lack of knowledge or simply
trusting up sites that do pop out on google search.

People should really be using up their common sense if they wont like to lose money.

Well aren't there sites where you visit it... it could automatically download an exe file or something like that?  Or that is not possible unless you click on something specially on that site?
