hi folks I want to warn all the participants in the airdrops There are a bunch of scammers They steal the privet key of myetherwallet i dont know how they do that but i think by sending you an email and when you check the email and click on it they can access to all the file in your pc and steal the key i dont know how that works i'm not an expert so don't put any of the private key in the computer or in your phones .
If you just open that email and don't click/download any attachment then I cant see a reasons that you would be hacked out by someone.This is why we should really be careful on downloading things on pc, executable files will run if you don't have an antivirus that can detect those malwares. Private keys cant be hacked if you don't disclose it into public. Unless if you got phished then 100% you will be hacked.

Airdrops wont get your private keys,normally they will just require you to fill up some form with your bitcontalk account,wallet address and optional with email addresses you can use dummy email address so that you wont receive phishing emails from these people,do not waste your time with these stupid airdrops instead join bounty programs.Some airdrops requires you to provide private keys and that's a clear scam because in the first place you should not give not key to anyone. Giving your email is ok but don't ever download anything from that site because you might really got scammed if you do better to be safe than to get some shit coin that don't have any value after all.
