• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Some poster made a site for a new coin (stack) and then promoted investments in the coin. People "invested" 70 BTC which the poster has now ran away with.

Don't invest in IPO type stuff, so far they seem to fail and this was a blatant scam.

Then you have Oreo which "launched" while also containing a virus in the wallet.

The scams are there and they are taking advantage of the hype, be careful.
 
I recommend installing wallets in separate VM instances, VirtualBox is good enough and it's free. You also get the added protection if the currency does take off too.
