PSA: Fake Phishing site targets Cryptocurrency users
Warning! When googling Blockchain you get a fake phishing ad as the first result.
Please take note. It looks pretty safe, until you click on it.
So be vigilant.
Please take due care when visiting online wallets and exchanges.
Use bookmarks and always 2FA.
Check the URL you're visiting matches your bookmark/star.
Many popular and essential sites are being used to abuse the Google Ads imperfections.
Some of the sites are:
Shapeshift.io
Bitaddress.org
Blockchain.info (as above)
Bittrex
Coinapult
