God I'm so fucking stupid! I got a pm as well but from the user aleggtyy
I didn't check it and logged it, and now my account McDoxy got compromised (I am a stakeholder)
Sadly I don't think I have any bitcoin address/pgp associated with my account that I could sign and send to theymos. So I guess my stake is gone

Can someone help me please. I'm not super tech savvy.
I've trying to access my NXT wallet for a couple of weeks to no avail. Before logging into my account I get the following message...
A new version of the Nxt client is available (1.2.6). Would you like to update?

If I remember correctly there was a problem a few versions back because bitbucket changed url format, so client update didn't work. Just download the new client manually, and overwrite the current one. https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/

Please PM directly to grue the global moderator as shown here if you suspect it is phishing:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8809210
I believe some of the accounts may have been phished and these guys are using those phished accounts to viral out to phish for more until they find accounts that are useful for claiming rewards like NEM Stakes.

When I click OK, I get this message. The hash of the downloaded update does not equal the one supplied by the blockchain. Aborting update.
Then if I log in it just downloads the block chain for hours without me being able to do anything within the wallet.
Anyone else having this problem? Thanks in advance for any help.
I had the same problem before I completely uninstalled the wallet and installed a newer version I've trying to access my NXT wallet for a couple of weeks to no avail. Before logging into my account I get the following message...

Everyone please help take the phishing site down before more people fall for it.
It seems the domain is registered at cloudflare so you should be able to report it here https://www.cloudflare.com/abuse/

DO NOT REQUEST NEMSTAKE (so also no 1 NXT payment) UNTIL FURTHER NOTCE !
It seems that many of the stakeholders were targeted so the team will have to discuss wether or not to halt issueance.

I was also PMd a phishing link from Zahlen (seems hacked) with "Important news about NEM Open Alpha" which really looks like leading to bitcointalk though:
1. the site was unsecure (not https://);
2. bilcointalk.org (not bitcointalk.org).
damn scamers

Now I'm afraid of every message I received the last days.
How can we prevent such pishing-attempts?
What can we do in case someone has already stolen our password?
Is it sufficient to change our password?
Any recommendation?

no need to panic.. just dont click any links from users who you do not recognise and make sure that if you do get a message that it is from who it is supposed to be.. like if its the newsletter make sure it is me and not kodycoon or something... profile rank is a good indicator..
changing you password should be ok.. if you have clicked any suspicious links and you are concerned that your account has been breached just send patmast3r a message to confirm that your stake has not attempted to be claimed.
if there is not a link in the message.. everything is fine.. no need to worry.. if there is.. double check everything and everything will be fine.. just dont enter your login details anywhere unless its just btt you are logging into.
Wouldn't it be better to convert all accounts to assets, not only on demand? This way there are then at least no attacks on the forum accounts any more...

I think this whole scam attacks just show us the potential of NEM.
Just pay attention, hold and enjoy later your richness ;-)
