Didn't think so. Pay attention.
Until we manage to move away from Slack to a new platform (and even after that probably) there will be people trying to separate you from the contents of your ethereum wallet.
There are three common scams going on at the moment
- scaring you to go to a fake myEtherWallet address.
- asking you to send ether to an accelerator program
- a fake ICO site for 'early access' or 'airdrop' etc.
For all of them you must first be careful and not click on links but #1 and #3 are really nasty because they usually try to get your private keys (or wallet file and password) and then drain all your ether AND TOKENS.
The first line of defence is to advise you to install Metamask and EtherAddressLookup because they seem to catch 99% of all bad sites.
Take this site : https://tenxpay[.]io/airdrop (fake site - don't visit)
With Metamask :
without :
which when you submit it - asks you for your private key !!!
If you give your private key - you will wake up to find all your ether gone.
Install Metamask and EtherAddressLookup - both Chrome Extensions and both free.
