I was about to login later today to make a transaction, but I'm worried now.
Is there any announcement yet from MEW officials regarding the issue? Until they confirms the hack and a guideline of safety we will be in WorryLand.

The DNS server was hijacked and auto redirect to phising website?

Yes. But only google dns.

SSL error. But some ignore that.

For all that time, while I was in the crypto-currency world, there were already a lot of reports that MEW was hacked, but so far no one can hack this site, so today's rumors are just rumors for me, the most important threat can only be your oversight.

I do not think that with the official MEW site, something happened, most likely a phishing site or another virus. But for complete clarity, you must of course remember all the actions that were done before the problem appeared and only then start from this. I think it's better not to rush to check everything is in order with your tokens or not, let time pass and if it turns out that this is just a failure, it's good. A couple of days you can wait.

The hacked MEW wallet is a shock to investors in the market cryptocurrencies. Hacker has intruded into the DNS system to manipulate the number of cryptos in the wallet of users, the number of ETH lost to the number 215: (So avoid the hacking of MEW wallet, people should not store cryptos in e-wallets, should use hardware wallets to avoid risk.

thanks for the information. i have just checked it and you're right, there was a ddos against mew. so i don't login in the next couple of hours. at least i know that the funds are safe if i don't login (:
I do not believe that this ethereum wallet can be hacked. Most likely the owner with the help of phishing sites gave his private keys. In other ways, the etherium wallet can not be hacked.

I know the information about the MEW hack but not worry because I do not leave money in the wallet MEW that only temporarily to transfer to Coinbase only. But what is the use of Google's 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 DNS lead to be hacked? Can you explain more to me with people understand?

Great!!  Shocked every minute lots of ETH is being stolen right now. And it looks like this process won't be finished at all. Thank you for this information. Really unpleasant thing.  Angry Even do not know how to use it in future and wheather to use MEW at all. Hope it will not take so long to solve the problem.

I am glad that i stumbled upon this thread because i am beginning to transfer from myetherwallet.com to idex just right before i read this but fortunately i didn't attempt to open the website after seeing this topic. Public DNS like 8.8.8.8 are vulnerable to attack and phishing, that's why i never used this public DNS for my internet. I hope the MEW had corrected this issue.

My My! 216 ETH till now.
That could be worth half a million in coming time.
I hope for no further losses of other people and encourage everyone to always be updated with the news and try alternative and more secure ways to store cryptos.

I think this is a virus that probably changed the URL to its own and the user entered the data itself, then made a transfer of the crypto currency to another wallet. If the theft occurred through the DNS, then you need to think about it.

Phishing sites began many popping up without us even knowing and this will be very dangerous. I hope this news be learning for others also to always be cautious in opening up a site, especially suspicious.
