Topic: Is This Another Scam Or What? - page 2. (Read 435 times)
Don't click any link from email, most of them is not safe or fake, I think you're crypto newbies because the link you post is not official Mew website, it's just a clone website and wait for people key in their private key and you will lose you money, go to check project telegram channel and bitcointalk announcement thread for upcoming update, never click link from email
I received a mail from DECoin asking me to verify that i am not a robot via their website and typing a message that will show that the wallet is mine. Unfortunately for them, I only applied for the bounty(explained how they got my email address) but i didn't do any work. So, I knew immediately that it is scam. I played along and clicked on the link in the mail, a website loaded and on this website(http://MyEtherWallet-checks.space/signmsg), i am supposed to unlock my wallet to be able to verify that i'm not robot, who does that 
I checked very well and saw that the site is like a clone of MEW.
I'm raising this issue because many like me would have gotten the message and some might not think twice before inputing their private keys. Although, i don't know if this is the norm. My question now is, can this be trusted or is it just another form of scam considering that the site is not secured?
Lastly, we really need to be careful of how we protect our wallets, so as not to get duped.

Follow your doubts yet those are actually real that they are scammers.Receiving some link or message which you didn't expect yet you haven't performed any task or work but they do ask specific thing that do connects with wallet verifications and other similar things then you should stop and think first before doing careless actions. No project will give out some phishing links if they do then that team is totally a fraud. I checked very well and saw that the site is like a clone of MEW.

Don't expect for them to reply on you since you had bust them out.
It is good you have discovered it. Which means that you have to be very careful. Thus is an indication that your email address is already with a scammer(s) and they will continue to make attempts towards spamming your email with more phishing sites. This won't be their last attempt. Then, clicking on just any link you see on your mail is not advisable, because you might be sent a malware.
That's definitely a phishing website, once you input any of your wallet private details into the provided text field on the site your wallet gets compromised and you're bound to lose every assets you have in it. Any campaign or airdrop that requires you unlock or submit your wallet private details is and will always be a scam!
Smile, this is pure scam without any mix up which an experienced man in the industry would easily recognized. Don't enter your private key on any phising site. There are many of them out there trust me. Someone just need to be very careful with those fraudsters out there, they only wake up in the morning and keep thinking of different method of reaping people's of their hard earned money
That is an obvious phishing scam, they want your private key and password so that they can steal your portfolio from your original mew wallet, it is another lesson where we should stay vigilant and not even click the suspicious links.
I think you have to ask the team, DECOIN's developer or advisor, I am analyzing that DECOIN is a good project.
if they ask for your wallet address, I think you should be more careful. but, you don't conclude quickly. it's better to wait for information from the team.

if you should sign a message, be aware, mostly its a scam, check the website address, make sure you sign in the right MEW site, because my friend was scammed with this modus

Are you kidding me? from your story and that was obviously true if DECcoin is a scammer. You have said the evidence if deccoin was a scammer. Deccoin sent you an email that contains phishing link to redirect you to the fake MEW site. Your message will never be replied by decoin.

chances are you are exposed to a phishing site, I suspect it was because you said that it was like an imitation of MEW. do not continue entering the site again, because it is very risky on the security of your wallet.

That is clear is phishing site. I also experienced it some time ago asking me to confirm that the wallet that was registered was really mine, but directed to mew phishing site. Therefore I did not continue. Don't be tempted by $ 50 or $ 100 if you don't want to be caught in a trap like this

Look at the domain name, surely this is scam. There are so many forms of scams today and you need to be careful with it. Your email has been revealed, which means that you have entered into some airdrop and your information has been sold I checked very well and saw that the site is like a clone of MEW.

Everything is very simple with me, if a project that you suspect is a scam project, then the likelihood that this scam project is growing up, because according to probability theory, it really has great chances.
Lol This is an obvious scam, which will lead only a novice. But, huh, you're new, so I will help you. Yes, this is scam. Always check URL

It depends on what type of work you did for them so far as you registered for there bounty you are eligible for payment but you said you did not do any work then it could be a random mail to every registered person check well and confirm but do not give your private key out or enter any suspicious link
OP said that he didn't do any work for them.So that's fishy when they are requiring you to do that if you know in yourself that you never did any job. That's very suspicious and don't be caught with those schemes today or else you'll lose your life savings for being gullible with those emails.

I don't have to go through with that long story you made.
Just by determining the website you gave for myetherwallet. It is a fake one, decoin wants you to log in your private key with that phishing link that they made. It's a very popular scam scheme with these ICOs now if you are for their airdrops, don't be scammed and only visit the real MEW.

what happened to you as I experienced, I also received e-mails on behalf of binary with the airdrop method from binance to get 200BNB coin, the method is the same as you are links that are similar to MEW I checked very well and saw that the site is like a clone of MEW.

This is a 100% scam. Because Myetherwallet is not going to verify yourself. And also Myetherwallet official site is https://www.myetherwallet.com then don't put your private key to anywhere. The important thing is no one going to give rewards via spam emails then don't trust or click them. You can block them and report as phishing.
