A number of Blockchain enthusiasts have received emails from an address claiming to be MyEtherWallet.
The email prompt receiver to log into a fake version of MyEtherWallet. And thus be able to steal the receiver cryptos.
Probably, a large percentage of MyEther Wallet users received such emails. Think, a notable amount of gullible users and crypto holders must have fallen for such. Only the informed and experienced ones identified immediately, it was a scam, a phishing link which could wipe out (steal) all holdings in a blink of an eye. MEW won't ask for such information. Ever.
