This is very unfortunate what has happened to you. But it is a good thing to share it so as to warn people about this specific scam.
However, this time the scammers have used a real domain which cannot really be anonymous since somebody must have paid the registrar with a credit card, as well as the hosting service. You could try to inform the postal police of your country and/or contact their hosting service and tell them that they are hosting a scammer.

although I feel sorry you got scammed . . . man, your mistake, that's like giving someone your debit card and your pin #.

Sadly, we receive a lot of fake emails every day. I personally don't click in any link in emails. better to use official and promising websites for any announcement.

These days you can't trust any links from emails.  Its best to go to the webpage of the specific token and check there first.  And make sure the website is the correct one.

Because here is many scamer and hacker.
Most important everybody be careful in slack spam messages. i think it's a big hacker zone. you don't click any wallet link.

OmiseGO Airdrop Update
As you may know, 5% of OMG tokens has been set aside from the total issuance, ready to be distributed by an automatic airdrop.
Now, every Ethereum address that has a balance over a minimum threshold of 0.1 ETH or 1 OMG can receive a share of this 5% that is proportionate to their share of ETH or OMG.

For every 1 ETH that you hold, you can receive proportionate 9.7 OMG tokens as an airdrop. For every 1 OMG that you hold, you can receive 0.3 OMG tokens as an airdrop.

Calculate how much OMG tokens you can get and claim your airdrop:

Went to the site filled it in....they asked private key for confirmitation...pls say nothing...my biggest fault...could not see it coming.

Next step...my tokens and eth went to this adress 0x7e3d7D8E31b3F472FCD3C1552a9F009131C50C6C

I only want to warn ppl! Never give away private key! I lost everything! So please watch out!

It's turtles all the way down!
Wow.. That's really unfortunate that happened to you and that you weren't able to see it coming. I have only ever shared my private key with myetherwallet, and I ALWAYS check the url and the https to make sure that I am on the correct site.

I also get spam messages all the time from slack! Yesterday I finally had to disable all emails from slack. It's so ridiculous how much spam there is nowadays. Good luck to you in the future my friend, hopefully this was a big learning experience.

I agree.
Best practice is to bookmark the links that you always used.

On top of never ever giving out your private key, you need to always be cognizant of the url link that you are clicking! OmiseGo's website is https://omg.omise.co/, not the one OP linked. This isn't porn, leave those risky clicks un-clicked.
