PLEASE READ: Over the last few months ShapeShift has had various reports of various scamming accounts being created on our social media accounts, as well as copy cat websites. With this becoming more of an issues over the last month, we would like to make a few notes about how to avoid falling victim to these scammers. Please read our blog post about this so to protect your BitcoinDark transactions: http://bit.ly/1PhK20L

In order to avoid scams the first thing I do is to avoid clicking links hidden with bit.ly or other similar url shorteners.

I wonder as I have never clicked such a scam link before. If I were to click on a phising link. Is it instakill just by opening the link? Or do I have to deliberately install some things.

Many URLs direct to scripts which build malware on your PC.
