There are many alternatives you can store them on mobile wallets where your private keys are stored on your phone, and not on a server.
Yeah, this is right. No one will save us except our self. It will be better to protect our wallet before the scammers come and take everything. And if it has happened to you, then it should be a very valuable lesson for you, don't let it happen again. Protect yours, now.

Whatever the reason for hacking a wallet is very detrimental and makes many people worry. I hope myetherwallet remains the safest and most convenient wallet for users. Do not make mistakes with our own carelessness, or at least anticipate that our wallet is safe.

I have been using myetherwallet for quite some time now, and I must confess that it is strange news for me hearing that it got hacked. I have never heard or read something like this until now. The wallet is more than safe as far as I know, and I have never had reason to fear or doubt its security.

Almost all hacks are connected not with hacking someone's wallet the hard way but with negligence of users who send their private key to side resources by themselves.
And that thing that op is talking about is kinda instant karma tool Smiley

Do not worry, I think it is a mistake. We need more security for MEW and I hope these guys will integrate any art of 2FA in the future. MEW could be fished very easily, if you are not careful enough. Just stay safe and everything will be great.

MEW wallets have been the targets of several phishing attempts lately. If you are using MEW, then you must confirm that you are using the correct URL. Make sure that you have "MyEtherWallet Inc [US]" on the left side of the URL in your browser.
That's what he meant and that's very true.
I see these SCAMMERS looking for Pishing sites to create or steal private keys from other people, there are so many things like that and I have often heard them.

It has been said several times in this forum that myetherwallet is no longer safe to check your tokens, otherwise you might get hacked.

As long as you visit the correct site and check the certificate it's safe to use myetherwallet.

I have one question - where did the hacker get the private keys to the wallets? I think it may be hacked big database or some of the applications in Google Chrome. I think that's the only reason
Myetherwallet does not store your private keys, so there is no database to steal from them, what it happens is that people have awful surfing habits and they click on everything they see not understanding that they are one click away to give their coins away, also many people do not even take the time to verify that they are in the right site or that their computers are free from viruses.

in most cases, people themselves are making their key. and I have often encountered people who entered the key in airdrops and then wondered how they were hacked. or my friend on the phishing site entered the key and just did not understand what happened. therefore first of all it is necessary to watch

MyEtherWallet is a place that everyone trusts and uses, but sometimes they can be attacked. In the days when phishing or similar attacks are taking place, the prices of crypto money are decreasing, like today Sad

I guess the only alternative now is to make sure one gets a hardware wallet. These phishers are getting smarter by the day and soon it might be too late to differentiate between a real wallet and a fake wallet. Having a hot wallet can be so cumbersome.
If you are holding an amount of coins that is more valuable than the price of a hardware wallet then you have the obligation to get one, there have been cases of people holding a fortune in their computers running all kind of pirated software besides their wallet, if you have so much money then you need to have a hardware wallet so you can protect yourself better from those hackers.

It may be old tricks, if i'm not mistaken I already read this issue before in different thread. That thread had been giving awareness about this scam. If I found it maybe I will update my reply and look to the thread by your own.

Yeah, That's true. MyEtherWallet is very very smart online transaction wallet and it is the very useful wallet for the store our tokens. But now it has some risk because scammers are hacking the MyEtherWallets. Personally, I have lost my MEW accounts in the past. Sad thing is, it's hacked with tokens and ETH. Actually, that's a very sad thing for me. Then I get ledger wallet and store my all tokens in the ledger wallet. It is very very safer than MEW. So I will recommend to all if you can but hardware wallet, so please get ledger wallet. It is very useful.
I still don't understand what is a wallet Ledger, because this time I also use Mew for storing the token and ETH me, do you can provide a link to me, so that the assets of my digital safe
