Download the linux binary at https://downloads.lisk.io/lisk/main/0.3.0/ then open the config.json with a notepad... Inside you will find:

    "peers": {
        "list": [
            {
                "ip": "40.68.214.86",
                "port": 8000
            },
            {
                "ip": "13.70.207.248",
                "port": 8000
            },
            {
                "ip": "13.89.42.130",
                "port": 8000
            },
            {
                "ip": "52.160.98.183",
                "port": 8000
            },

Those are all official nodes. Its safe to use them.
  

So I decided to trust this, since it seemed obvious. It says 3 times it has sent the coins but when I log in again they are still there, guess I got screwed. GG.


STOP USING UNSECURED NODES.



this.


How can the IPs be in the config.json downloaded from lisks site then?

If they do not have SSL, and they are under DDOS you might have a man in the middle attack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack (It also doesnt matter about DDOS if you have a bad party operating them!)

Be very careful, all that stuff is very insecure. All main nodes should have SSL it is a huge problem.
