[Updated] Potential Issue Reported - Ethereum Chamber Wallet
The Ethereum Chamber is allegedly copying private wallet keys from users to its database.
Ethereum Chamber’s website no longer provides wallet services, but instead displays the Juicy J “Blue Bentley” rap video.
Taylor from MyEtherWallet told ETHNews:
"No one should trust a website with their private keys, ever. We have worked hard for almost two years to gain the trust of the community, and will continue to be an open-source and trustworthy site. However, we urge you to get a Ledger Nano S or TREZOR hardware wallet (both are now less than 0.5 ETH & compatible with http://MyEtherWallet.com ), or learn how to use MyEtherWallet in an offline environment (https://myetherwallet.groovehq.com/knowledge_base/topics/how-do-i-run-myetherwallet-dot-com-offline-slash-locally …).
This ensures your private keys are never on an internet-connected device. As the price rises, more and more lazy scammers will attempt to take your funds. Phishers, untrustworthy sites, malware, remote access software -- the list goes on and on. Please be cautious, aware, and take steps to secure your private keys." More
