I was remember , few months ago.. So many people who got scammed by Myetherwallet scam or phising sites. They didn't careful to type myetherwallet site (maybe).. And so much Ethereum and tokens/coins on hacker wallet. After they got that , they just move it directly to exchanges.
And then.. Myetherwallet official team tweeted on their account to change DNS , Server , Appearance or something I dont know which hopefully all can easily access "the real one" myetherwallet site.
Maybe next time.. you must bookmark "the real one" myetherwallet site because until now , phising sites still exist. And thanks for this thread explain about myetherwallet phising sites

I was shocked when I saw this post because recently, I opened my MEW and it appeared many red. I checked again the site now, thankfully the site is real.
i think there is another way to easily knowing the phishing website by installing metamask.
With metamask every phishing website that you visit it will warn you like below

My email was hitted by some mail, that named is myetherwallet with title "ETH HARDFORK" and when i click the button on the message its redirected to some phising/scam like myetherwallet site's.
The question, where they(the scammers) know my email? because i never linked my myetherwallet account to my email account.
No,it doesnt work that way.Your email might have been exposed where you might able to register or input it into other services/websites.The question, where they(the scammers) know my email? because i never linked my myetherwallet account to my email account.
When theres a leakage or those email list had been solved out and been bought then scammers or hackers do mass sending with those phishing emails
just hoping for someone to be hooked up.

People lose their cryptocurrency only by stupidity. Neglect of safety practices leads to the loss of its cryptocurrency. I read a lot of stories that people lost their cryptocurrency through their own fault, no one even hacked them.
Most of them are trapped by their ignorance, or because of their heartlessness.therefore the OP may aim to provide them with experience and knowledge to be more careful and not be trapped because of ignorance.

Its a sad world that many people have to resort to theft in order to survive. These phishing sites will never cease to exist until there is more equality in the world.
Thanks For the inform to us sir !
some time ago I opened the Myetherwallet site to make a transaction, but I was directed to another tab in the browser that I used with a slightly different address but with the exact same appearance.
https://myetherwallet.com-eth.network/index.php?
exactly the same as the original website,
https://www.myetherwallet.com/
I hope this can be our shared awareness,
because not only were they new sites that were phishing, but the Vintage website from MEW also experienced the same incident.
https://myetherwallet.com-eth.network/vintage/index.php?key=9090
and exactly the same as the original website.

always bookmark some important websites and ignore pop ups when you surf the internet. because it might be one of the phishing attempts.

Thanks for sharing this excellent info. We have similar hack in 2018 where ethereum worth 150000 were stolen by hackers. Just by following few simple guidelines you can avoid huge losses.
its better a use a linux usb drive pc everytime there is a need to connect to wallets or exchange.
No need to install the OS, just let it run on the USB drive, everytime it starts its a like a new PC.
much more safer works well.

That’s why it was advisable that everything in internet that needs our account to be logged in must be Bookmarked because hackers are great in their skills so if we don’t make precautionary measures for sure we will victimized.this must served as lesson for everyone who’s reading here to always BOOKMARKED important site that we usually used
Many people copying the template of MyEtherwallet and use it scam the users. Many people got trapped in this problem. I am not sure who is going to give the solution for it.
I believe every users needs to secure themselves with the security options and keep access the wallet checking the URL.

Quite common stuff now. Applies not only for MEW but for other platforms as well (Social Networks, Crypto Trading Platforms, etc.)

Every users of myetherewallet shoul pay attention when signing in on thier wallets they should always check first the url if its correct or not, some users are not aware on this cause as long as they recognize the same display and details like the original one, they will continue without knowing that their tokens are in danger.
