https://etherdelta.github.io/

Edit:

Fckkkkkkkk Angry

I did a huge mistake Angry

WARNING
I just lost 3 ETH with a fake etherdelta site

https://etherdelta.gitnub.io/

I searched in google for etherdelta site and i found this scam site, because original site is down or don't know why i can't open the original etherdelta exchange. I imported my private key in this fake site and they stole my eth, and the scammers sold 900+ MGO token very cheap.

Be aware please

Thanks for the warning and sorry for your loss. i think everyone should install the chrome plugin that protects/warns users when they visit phishing sites(https://github.com/409H/EtherAddressLookup). search on google for this plugin "EtherAddressLookup", it's an open source project/plugin.

Jeez. Sorry for this.

As someone else said, i think it is a good idea to either save the correct link as a bookmark or a favorite on your browser. That way you know that you are not clicking on a phishing link. Clicking on google ads is literally suicide, there are so many phishing sites out there that are promoting themselves using g-ads.

That phishing domain is brutal though, if i didn't know it was a phishing link i would have fell for it... But yeah ether delta is now at etherdelta.com, not on GitHub.

Sorry for your loss. So you lost in total 3 ETH and some MGO tokens along with it? That really sucks dude Sad

Unfortunately, this is how google operates these days. They simply don't give a crap if something is a phishing link, as long as they are getting paid to advertise it they will put it up without any questions. Other examples include bitmixer phishing links and bittrex phishing links.

Google does care if it's a phishing link, but you need to report the links to them. After they are reported, they are almost always removed. They just don't bother checking the links before it's submitted, probably because there are a lot of ads and it would take a lot of effort to check everything and to make sure it's not a very very good phishing site. People might also make decoy sites first, and then switch after it's approved so there isn't much point.

Etherdelta is at etherdelta.com right now, so they've relocated. They phisher has a pretty dangerous phishing domain too. The domain goes straight to etherdelta for some reason so they're selectively scamming etherdelta users.

Every time i use my bookmarked link for trade in Etherdelta. So i think I am safe. When I visite the site,I check the site URL before import my private key there.
sorry to hearing that you lost 3 ETH:( You can use https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/metamask addon for your safety.Now the Etherdelta is fine: https://twitter.com/etherdelta/status/906145896492085249

Almost all sites hosted on github.io was down today for hours but it is working normally right now, sorry to hear that you have lost 3 ETH to some random fishing site which was just another clone of github because etherdelta is open source so anyone can clone it..

Beware of phising sites next time....

Earlier, Im having a problem too accessing the https://etherdelta.github.io/ but found out later on that when I accessed it in PC it's was fine but on my mobile and tablet (both Android) Im have an error. Don't know why that's I wait for others here in the community if they experienced the same since for sure there will be lots of threads that will made about this.

Right now the site is fine. And sorry for your loss since I think you are in a trade rush that's why you didn't take noticed of the site url in which today there are lots of phishing site especially with Etherium platforms.

3 ETH is really so much and you lost it in some phishing site thats really a sad story but you shouldn't forget to always check url of exchange platform and wallets you will use daily. Its better to just bookmark the site in your browser rather than searching for it in google everytime when you want to visit the site.

There are many phising sites for bittrex, etherdelta, myetherwallet etc so be careful.

A lot of phishing sites are popping up these past few days, so always be vigilant. Don't put all your trust in google search as well, sometimes phishing sites are on the first page because of ads. Be extra careful next time.

The new url of EtherDelta is https://etherdelta.com/ ,via their announcement on Twitter.

Tweet link: https://twitter.com/etherdelta/status/906027544696168449

Why did you import your private keys though? Was it like that on the original etherdelta site? I don't see why an exchange needs to get your private keys.

I don't know if I'll trust this update yet, seeing the comments in the tweet and the note in EtherDelta's bitcointalk thread, I'd rather use the old url.

Whether those details are correct because many people are waiting for the previous website. With the new website, many people are in confusion whether to access the website with their details or not. I think we have to wait for the final confirmation from the company etherdelta.

Yeah, i got it too late. Sad

I found the etherdelta link through coinmarketcap https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/etherdelta/

Seems the website link was not updated in coinmarketcap. I thought lets search in google for the correct link and i trapped with the fake one. Cry
