One of the worst things you could do is to use Google's search result redirection to the pages. Notice that most of us are typing with full of misspells. One misspelled word could lead to danger.

Best way would be bookmarking secured sites and accessing them through Bookmarks. Or simply typing full address instead.

I would also Argue about the Chrome browser. It is cool and very nice to all of us making our lives so easy, but it is real evil in the end. In fact if you like Chrome why not using Chromium instead?

Best regards to all.

How one web-adress can contain english and cyrillic letters? It's terrific. Seems that any website can be faked easily.

The whole btc ecosystem is vulnerable to be hacked by hackers what do you say about that?

I have to say that you don't know what you are talking about, and you have not even read bitcoin whitepaper.  Grin

Be very careful where you enter your login data! HTTPS means nothing anymore.
Do you notice the small dots(.) below the letters n
If you enter your password in a fake site like that your coins and money are gone. And always have 2 factor authentication activated.

Stay Safe
damn, this is why you need bookmark

2FA is very important indeed. Use it and you will be safe. As we already saw, this is not 100% safe, but it's much safer comparing with no 2FA. Good luck

When using the 2FA, as good authenticatior, send the code just before it expires, so no-one can intercept and abuse it in such short time.
Really? Is it needed to do as you suggest? The countdown timer of 2FA is so fast, hence I think it's unnecessary. Do you agree?

Thanks for the info. There are people who do not have to deal with such little things especially when going to a site. and I am one of those people. Especially in this type of system we can lose the money we keep when hacking our account and losing all our money in our wallet

Thank you for warning people when logging in this site. Personally I ignore all sites that appears through pop-up and never try to type any word on it once.

The person that posted the picture with the 2 binance links... is the first one legit or not?  Because when you google binance, you see that one with the ad and of course below that, there is the real binance site.  The first link i was told if you click on it, it has binance site but it has a referral id etc.  So is the first one real or not?
Well, as for that image the first one looks like the correct one, but it is not guaranteed since one can put different URL in the ad area so long as they pay a certain amount of advertisement fee.
Even if it looks like the correct URL one may omit some small difference and it is not 100% sure.
Therefore in general the link appeared in advertisement area is not necessarily always fake URL, but I would not click it.

Shouldn't the browsers change those extra Unicode symbols to ASCII ones? For example, like with russian domains they change to xn---yatta-yatta-yatta and you can see that?
The browser has to convert internationalised domain names to ASCII (using the ACE prefix 'xn--' and Punycode), as Domain Name System labels can only contain ASCII (or, actually, a subset thereof). But the problem is that not all browsers make it very conspicuous to the user that an IDN has been encountered. Hence it's entirely possible for a user to click on a link without realising that the link uses an IDN rather than a traditional ASCII domain name. And phishers exploit this.

That's crazy! Thanks for the info. How did you access this fake site so I know not to do that? It looks pretty real other than those 2 dots under the n.

I saw this warning in facebook as well. Too many fake sites nowadays. This kind of sites usually appear when you search the site in google. The first one that appear is advertisement and if you don't check the URL and log in immediately, you will lose the coins in your account the moment you enter. This is the reason why I always book mark the sites that I use and access it from there always so that I can avoid using google to access the site because of this possibility. There is a case with myetherwallet as well changing the URL with special character.
