I got one from [phishing], probably trying to pretend to be myetherwallet. Mail asked me to upload my provate keys due to some kind of fork and what not. Not falling for that.

I received an email from MyEtherWallet to claim some tokens of an airdrop I joined. Hovering my mouse over the link,  I discovered it's a link to another cgi scripted site.

Interestingly you don't create MEW wallets using email addresses.

Guys be careful and be vigilant.
As far as i know you arent required to put an email address when you are creating new wallet at myetherwallet.com which makes your stament doubtful,you should be doing researching before you do anything in the cryptocurrency universe because theres a lot of phishing and fake sites out there who wants to steal your investments,that is clearly a scam website if they have required you to put your email address.

Thanks a lot for the message, but I do not even look at all these messages, if something new appears, they immediately write to Twitter, so probably it's better not to climb in the mail, the risk of phishing is very high.

Thank you for the alert, I hope people stay alert and there won’t be victims falling for this scam.

I thought email is unseen but how come that MyEtherWallet send an email to you. Maybe their are people behind this because it is impossible to know ones email if it is in hide settings. This is clear scam, either scam, clear scam.  Smiley
Be careful.

We don’t give email to myetherwallet. If you do, it is advisable to recheck the website you are accessing. Stay safe.

Never trust any messages claiming as something related to myetherwallet, this kind of practices is a way of scammers to have an access in your account. They will do anything just to scam as many as they can. You can watch  on YouTube to know more about their ways and you will be aware. You can also ask a question about the email in their social media sites to confirm about any suspicious matter. Stay safe from any scammers.

bookmark your important sites (wallet, online account, etc) and always visit your sites from your bookmark. Never click a link from email.

Never use a hyperlink to login to a website, or to enter any of your personal credentials. These phishing attempts are in abundance in the crypto community. The scam relies on social engineering and basic human psychology to outwit a person by finessing them into forking over their own information.

Stay safe brothers and sisters!

It is just another scam by evil doers! Check the website of myetherwallet very well and see if there is MYETHERWALLET LLC [US] before you enter your private address. Stay vigilant and protect your coins.

HAHA its a scam. I have seen so many scams. Scam emails, scam twitter comments, scam telegram bots. Its just so crazy. Looks like the World is full esy to make money. These hurting the newbies and making them believe the whole crypto ecosystem is useless. People get hurt , they move out of the market and become hesistant to come back. There shoiul be some kind of legal recourse to this. Dont know the solution but yes there should be some.

Which is why we should never click on any link sent via our email. Especially those which will direct us to our wallets. Phishing links are common strategies by hackers to retrieve any private keys or codes to have access to our accounts. You are correct, vigilance is required in this kind of system.

Myetherwallet or etherdelta will never emailed you about airdrops or aany other thing, thats just a phising attemps so you give them your private key or something like it and you end up losing money.

It's just a scam.
There have been too many scams lately, and I've often seen twitter and telegram seeing EOS and various tokens Airdrop, but these are all scams.
