Yes, it's a total scam, but creatively done nonetheless....
for one, they recreated a fake site, but when you look at the certificate you should see a certificate error stating that the issued certificate does not match the ip address of the domain. It looks to be some kind of Webinjection exploit. It only servers as a fishing attempt to get your blockchain wallet credentials.
But as it's been said, that fee is ridiculous.
It's great to see these things posted about, and people need to be careful. I'm only pointing out that the person may have done a "good job" or been "creative" creating the scam, however they were oblivious that the fee would never be that large and would tip me off immediately... :/ Also, why would you need to check within so many hours or else lose your whole balance? How does that make any sense?
