These days, MEW scam email really true concerns. As mew getting popular there's opening many phishing site. Eventually, I've received same kinds of scam mails. Thanks for your effort and heads up.
We really need to be careful. I recently read that the same MEW spam emails began to spread over one of the airdrop that advertised on the forum. Thank you for opening this topic, it will certainly help many to be more cautious.
Thank you for giving and bringing us this up mate. I recently had read someone posted at reddit that his ETH was hacked, he has 2FA and other security features for his wallet but still he got hacked.
I don't know on where these scammers are coming from, I don't want to guess or give any country because it's quite bias though I'm not protecting them and I'm not even supporting China. But before going to any conclusion if they are from China we should have proof and fact about it.
Honestly those people who scam to us are those people who are living in china.

Thank you for posting this, but people that will be caught or will be tricked fron this are the ones who's not reading and observing the email especially the header. And checking links are the most important.
So just be careful always.

Please stop generalizing people as not all internet marketers are scammers and not all people who are living in china are gonna scam us in fact the location has nothing to do with it but its the skills of of looking like a legit. What we should look after is the content itself, Make reading a habit and take time to think and analyze the data before doing something particularly if it involves money. Take the op for example as the content is definitely suspicious this is probably why op looked into it as something is definitely wrong.

Thanks a lot for the heads up. It's indeed extremely important to be careful when dealing with links to wallets.
Hey gang, not sure if this has already been passed around but thought I'd highlight a spam email I got attempting to hijack MEW. I think the site's already down but the email looks really legit and the link in the email is accurate, but it doesn't link to the official MEW site. I was already suspicious so I went through trying to spot the issues... it actually took me awhile but it shows up in the email address.
As I said, I believe the site is already down but I sent this up to notify just in case, but also to show others how difficult to spot scam. When you read people complaining about their MEW being 'hacked' it's likely that someone clicked on an email link like the one I got.

Thanks for that noticed and warning to all of the myetherwallet user. This is not the first time that a phisher tries out to get some victim, I have seen before that they are also using SEO and advertising through google by misspelling the middle letters of myetherwallet. Most of the people that are becoming victim of these phishing links / emails are the ones that are lazy to read on what they are visiting.

thanks for the heads up. these guys were particularly sloppy; they didn't even properly spoof the email address. it's fairly trivial to do so, so these phishers are aiming at the lowest hanging fruit.
i would hope that nobody would ever click a link purporting to be from MEW anyway. users don't link email addresses to MEW wallets at any point, so that alone should immediately tip anyone receiving these emails that a scam is happening. MEW never sends out emails, and what email list would they even have access to? people are just using the bitcointalk/btc-e/other database leaks and sending phishing emails to those email addresses.
