Alert everyone, hackers got access to the MEW DNS spoofing it, the moment you login they will take all your funds.
Do not access the wallet!!!
"PSA: There seems to be issues with myetherwallet.com as of right now; Users reported the SSL-Certificate was not verified/trusted and others have reported that funds were transferred to a third-party wallet.
If you use Metamask, please always make sure that the SSL-Certificate is signed by DigiCert Inc for MyEtherWallet Inc with the following SHA-256 fingerprint: 13:31:94:78:9E:44:41:4B:F0:33:D8:66:68:6A:45:B3:61:25:82:0A:49:52:8F:E4:C5:54:18:7A:22:9B:BF:10"
So far more than 200 ETH are being stolen into the hacker account;

I will update as news come out!
Update from MEW:
:warning:MyEtherWallet Update:warning:
The company has responded. Amazon’s DNS servers were hijacked (need we express the growing importance of decentralization?) and for a period of a few hours - starting around 12pm UTC - users were unknowlingly redirected to a phising site, resulting in funds being stolen.
Over $150k worth of ETH was transferred to an address with over $20mm worth of crypto in it. Those behind the attack are very sophisticated.

So what do we do now?
MEW has reported everything is back to normal. They mentioned “affected users likely clicked the "ignore" button on the SSL warning that pops up when visiting a malicious site imitating MEW. MAKE SURE there is a green bar SSL certificate that says ‘MyEtherWallet Inc [US]’”
If you’re not comfortable using MEW, you can use MyCrypto.com (read our post about it from February here: https://t.me/BitcoinBravado/899 )
:lock: We also strongly recommend you pick up a hardware wallet, like the Ledger Nano S ( https://tinyurl.com/y9m855lt ).
If you wish to check your balances without using any third party like MEW or MyCrypto, simply paste your ETH address into Etherscan.io
We hope our message got out in time to prevent anyone else from logging in and being affected. Stay safe out there :facepunch:
