There are lots doing this strategy to fool people and give our bitcoins and our private keys to get bitcoin and bitcoin gold ..
And i think those who are making phishing email are live in india because mostly i seen here in other forums are living in india they are just use the russia ip to disguise hope..
Hope that people are always checking any email and about the link url because mostly its fake url..

I'm not an Indian but please don't name names or even races. It will not solve any problem it just pour more oil to flames.

As for the blockchain phishing email, I've already experienced this twice by which both topic is related to deposit bonus on their wallet. Like send X amount on 1Blockrandomletters btc address and receive Y percentage of your total deposit. I have a high suspicion that this new blockchain email is related to that old one. They never stop and keeps on updating in the latest subject on crpyto.

This is definitely a phishing email that will try to steal your login details from a certain Bitcoin wallet. Good job on noticing this and thanks for pointing this one out. If someone is not familiar with emails like this, they could become a victim of it. Bad people and criminals alike are now targeting people who are involved in cryptocurrency because huge amount of money is involved in it especially now that BTC hits ATH and being broadcasted to different media channels. Always be careful in clicking links from an email. If not sure, don't open it and just delete it or move it to spam folder. People are getting more desperate nowadays.

Hmmm blockchain again???

It's mostly blockchain or coinbase who's name is being abused by phishers, which directly comes from their massive market share. I remember having seen quite some blockchain phishing sites pop up on top at Google when searching for blockchain. I am fairly sure that one of these phishing sites was very similar to the domain being displayed in the screenshot. I am quite paranoid from nature, so for that reason I always triple check URLs, but there are enough people out there who just blindly click on a link if it looks familiar at first glance.

Question to OP -- did this email show up in the same mail address you use for Bitcointalk, faucets, crypto sites, etc? I always use a seperate mail address for every site or service I sign up at, which seems to be the best way to go.
Most of the time if we do accept these kind of emails these are being caused on those sign ups that we do made on a certain site which they do really have the compilation or record on our email and added up into the list.Same as yours i dont really tend to use up my main email rather than using on those dummy emails.Coinbase and blockchain is commonly used because they do have lots of users and yet the template can be easily be copied just like the original one and if you are really not making any reviews on those urls then you will end up on getting scammed.

First of all thanks for reminding us of this danger, I'm not surprised if so many phishing sites from blockchain especially during this hard fork, these scammers seem like they never tired of searching for their prey, everything on that pic look so convincing if we're not careful then our bitcoin will be lost. Well, I highly recommend enabling two-factor authentication feature it's better safe than sorry.

Oh, classic scam attempt, nothing new in this world. As I understand, user would have to import private keys to phishing website to "get BTG". Simple scheme and easy money to scammers, they just have to collect these private keys.
When email message related to money, it's not good idea to click links on email. It's better to access site directly by entering web address on search bar or click link from browser bookmarks.

Limited in number. Limitless in potential.
I guess it's a small letter  "L" / "el", if it's from blockchain.info I guess I should receive that too but never. The main question is how you get those emails, I'm sure it's from a leaked database or some cloud minings records and sell those emails. Only if you never give your important email/s on this kind of sites. Anyway thank you for posting it here maybe some people here received that email too.

No doubt. Its 100% Phishing site again if you do see it on the very first time you wont really notice the difference but on the 2nd time.From the sender itself I do already conclude it is already fake. Have you seen [email protected]?  That's should be letter "I" but he used small letter "L" so that it would turns out not to be noticed but my eyes can see those flaws  Cool

I almost clicked on this

as it looks convincing.

Instead I went to blockchain info  on a different pc they have no info on their site.
So this is very likely a fake fish .

Not sure  where to put it  but it should be in a few spots.
