There is a new type of scam spreading on slack. I am a victim of it.

I fell for this dumb scam.

The link in the e-mail is myetherwallet.com.co. I was so surprised by this e-mail, I didn't even check the URL.
Right after I tried to log in on the fake page, I noticed it was a scam and check the sub reddit of BAT. There was already a post of it, but while I tried to transfer my tokens to a new wallet, I lost all of it.


Lesson learned. I'm so mad about it, but it was all my fault.

It's happening on every slack chanel, not on BAT.


RESTEEM THIS POST TO LET PEOPLE KNOW! MAKE SURE YOU WON'T FALL TO THIS LIKE I DID!

Always be aware when logging in.

Don't be greedy and you won't lose any money. Period.

"Period." That's settles it then. Greed is the cause of all online mistakes!

what does this type of scam with being greedy have in common?

If my Crypto's aren't working for me they're on paper wallets

I only had 1k BAT token (bought on $0.3) in MEW and all my other cryptos are in HW wallet or paper wallet. Regret the moment when Iโ€‹ was lazy to set it up.

yeah my nem harvester still isn't active

Well, I can only blame myself. Thank you for the upvote.

Also @poloniex took my money.

Yeah usually just takes a while they locked up 4 ETH on me for 5 days

Sorry to hear that. With polo atleast you have some chance to get it back sometimes. In my case, I can only blame myself for being so dumb.
