Just got burned by a phishing site - warning: autocomplete sites in Russian

[kdkdjdjf]

Hey guys, just had a huge lesson in security. I tried to log into my Binance account on a website I'm pretty sure is just 'binance.com' but with a Russian domain - and I clicked on the autocompleted URL in Chrome. Anyone else had issues with these sites, or have any tips on how to avoid getting phished?

Bummer, dude. Always be careful with those auto-fill sites, especially when you don't speak the language. Good reminder for everyone to stay on their toes and verify URLs, no matter how legit they look!

Yikes, that's harsh. Glad you're safe. Guys, be super cautious with those 'auto-complete' sites, especially if they're in Russian - it's definitely a red flag.

Just wanted to chime in and say I've seen a few of those Russian sites before too, they always seem to pop up after a new coin or token launches. Be sure to use a password manager and never save sensitive info like private keys or seed phrases, it's just good practice. Always verify a site's URL before entering any info, if it looks sketchy, it probably is.
