ClassicEtherWallet Has Been Compromised! Read This Before Using Your Wallet!steemCreated with Sketch.

If you use ClassicEtherWallet for storing any of your ETC do not access your funds. A hacker two nights ago stole the domain and forwarded it to his own private server. If you login to check your funds, he can view your private key and steal all of your funds.

I personally made this mistake. Luckily, he only stole about $300 USD but that's still $300 of MY money. It still sucks to have it happen to you. Don't let this happen to you.

Wait until the devs of the wallet gain control of the domain again, before trying to check your funds.

By the way, here is the address to this motherfucker:
http://gastracker.io/addr/0x8837234b8d27cf4abdae353264f45c8866631ed5

He's stolen almost $300,000 USD in ETC.

Hope this helps some of you.

Cheers,
