Topic: The way to escape from phishing sites - page 2. (Read 504 times)
It seems like this guide is for Ethereum anyway, so you may as well go all out by only using the offline version of MyEtherWallet. This method is completely immune from phishing attacks for as long as it's done correctly.
The most scary thing out here is that you are your own security, and your own bank, that alone is enough to make you smart. I have shitloads of junk mails and more still drop by the day waiting for me to sign a message on some phishing links. They come in form of forks like EOS GOLD, EOS AUTHORITY, ZILLIQA GOLD, NEO GOLD etc, they also have this usual MYETHERWALLET.MYSPACE phishing site. If you ever see any of the above, run!! Stay secured out there.
there was a while back some sort of DNS hack(?) that made myetherwallet.com redirect, I think the "MetaMask" plugin (www.metamask.io) is supposed to warn when it's fake sites, not sure how that worked out with the dns hack, anyone know?
You can also use Netcraft extension on Chrome for extra protection.

3. Phishing sites are always in form Where they want data input. After input submitting your data they will send an error, or redirect it to any other page.
4. If you submit your data, as well as change your password.
5. Many times the mailed airdrop links come. Check them out at the official site and then try to join.

I've been trapped in the past, so I shared these information, If there is any other way you can share
