Topic: Another Phishing Attack through Emails - Blockchain.info (BEWARE) (Read 418 times)
not only through email.. even in social media like fb.. they are tagging people as well who are into crypto..
We should be careful in every step. Especially, the scam tries that have spread through mails have been present for a long time. Just should always be research about whether to be official.
Phishing has been one of the major problem we are encountering in the Crypto space and something really needs to be done about it, firstly we need to ask how are this hackers about to pull out the email of people from the database of Blockchain.com, or is it possible that they sent a random message to both owners and non owners of Blockchain wallet, because if they are getting their data from Blockchain wallet, then they really need to do something about the security of the information they have in their possession to avoid hackers getting some sensitive details.
It's possible that they got their info elsewhere. Retrieving emails is quite easy - you can get info like that almost anywhere. People give away their email addresses very freely. On average, I think most people regularly receive spam email and its very likely for you to get phishing emails such as these. I'm sure wallet owners know how important and sensitive their information is and how vulnerable they'll be once they are compromised. Anyone just gullible enough would fall for phishing emails.
Only newbies fall to this attack, it is created for newbies, we all know that as cryptocurrency investors we should be very particular in the name and extension of the domain, in fact, some of us are using metacert, when visiting a new domain, I hope newbies will not fall into this, but if you are an old timer and you fall for it, it's your fault for not doing things correctly.
Thanks fot the heads up. Its just that this hackers dont loses the tricks to their sleeves.Everyday they got their new tricks just to steal money so we should be very more careful.Thats why if I join such giveaways I always ask google for it or the site supports.
In the past many innocent people has lost there bitcoin to block chain.info mail phishing scam as fas as I know and many of these scammed victims instead start saying bitcoin is scam ,not all of them know that word' phishing' ,thanks for sharing this at least newbies will believe that phishing is real

I never trusted online wallets. I think this is the least secure way to store your assets. If your deposit size exceeds $ 1000, then the first thing you had to do was buy a reliable hardware wallet. Such a purchase with a 100 percent guarantee will be able to secure your assets. Such a purchase is as a matter of prime necessity for every trader.

Thanks for the warning, I hope nobody fell for this cheap scam. Always be careful when receiving such emails to avoid losing your precious coins.
This is a nice one, scammers everywhere looking for what is not theirs, I actually received a similar email like this some time ago, but was too busy to check it out or open it,thanks for this information.

Thanks for the information. In this regard, I note that I also received emails for an alleged airdrop Binance, I have not investigated for lack of time but it could be a scam.

Yes, I also received such letters. Apparently, fraudsters do not know that there is no blochkchain.info site anymore, but there is a blockchain.com site.
Moreover, besides, they sent me such letters to an e-mail address, which was never used for blochchchain.info. Stupid attempt

I am tired of such fraudulent programs. how much can you have? need to do away with this on the cryptocurrency market
January 22, 2019, 06:13:47 PM
We must be aware for this kind of phishing. However, I personally have ever participated in this kind of program, getting my Stellar from that Blockchain platform. However, I'm sure that we must be more aware of this kind of phishing because we don't know whether it is real or not.

Thanks OP for this post & be vigilant all this kind of phishing is old trick but still sadly a lot of innocent peoples falls under such scams & give out their each & every details in hope of money. I have seen so many phishing attempts on telegram as well as on twitter too who create fake profile of admins or famous twitter influencer.

That is a good warning to everyone. Make sure that we do not fill up those unwanted emails. And also, you can distinctively compare both of those two websites that are legit and not, because the scam website says their web address are unsecured.

Thank you for the share. I happen to receive this phishing link also. Glad I haven’t visit since Im busy also but usually I tend to click and visit this kind of link especially if they are not being marked as spam by gmail.

Thank you for this information. I think it will help protect at least some people. We should always be more attentive to any suspicious reports. I also always check the site before entering any data.
January 20, 2019, 05:45:58 PM
yeah thanks for the info, but for sure you can check the connection secure, and that say not secure.
yeah i see that almost same like the real website, just becareful if you want to login to your account.
i always get email like that, they say i get reward or airdrop, but i just ignore them because im not join any airdrop.

This is one of the reasons I am not in favour of the airdrops again, most people fall victim of this scams for how much, $10 and one would lose more than that. This is what I would advice people to do, install meta mask and cryptolite both helps to detect most if not all these phishing websites
