This is a security warning from Ambrosus CEO Angel Versetti. Please read below carefully. These tips can apply to any TGE. We give precautions about ours.

Dear Ambrosus Friends and Supporters,

One cannot become successful without making enemies. Looks like we are definitely going against the interests of some group(s) of people who are doing different little things. I would consider that as a personal failure of mine if under my watch we suffer from a breach of security that will lead to significant financial losses for the TGE participants. I therefore encourage you to read some of my tips below on how stay safe in this volatile world.

Our website CAN get hacked. There is probably no website in the whole world that is entirely unhackable. Actually, our website is not very secure at all at this stage. Any average hacker can see that easily. We may suffer from the same attack as CoinDash. Their website was hacked into and the contribution address was changed and millions of dollars went to the hackers’ wallet. This may happen to our website too. We will mitigate this risk by doing something that will make this attack entirely pointless. We will only say what that is just before the TGE. But by default, before sending your crypto to the address given on our website, check a few other channels of ours just to be double sure everything is all right. We will take some measures to make it convenient.

If our website is hacked, then the footer on the website can have links to social media changed and replaced with fake links. So in order for our advice above to keep making sense, I list once again here, our official social media channels. Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ambrosusAMB Twitter: https://twitter.com/AmbrosusAMB Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC27wKQU7KBgvtuTAOKD0BJg Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ambrosus/ Slack: https://invite-ambrosus.herokuapp.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/ambrosus

The likelihood of hacking ALL our channels is nearly 0. We use completely different authentication methods for our different channels. So suppose our website is hacked and our twitter is hacked. We still have Facebook, Slack, LinkedIn, Reddit, Medium, etc. It is extremely unlikely, I would say almost certainly 0 chance, that we will have ALL our channels hacked. So be paranoid, check a few channels to make sure all is well and you are not about to lose your funding. As noted, we plan to do something to make this even more secure. You will see what it is once the time is right.

We can get Slack or other Chats or Groups infested with Fake Profiles, including impersonating Ambrosus Team. Note a few things: 1) We will never ever post any addresses for contributions in any chat messages, slack posts or groups as a text/message or anything. 2) We will never ever PM / DM / Ping you with an offer to get into a special deal, or that our TGE launched earlier, or anything. 3) Our TGE will launch on 13 September. Not earlier. No “special deals” will be sent to anyone.

Our Social Media Channels may get fake clones. Please check again the list of our real channels above. Be advised it’s very easy to set up a fake account, get a lot of fake subscribers and pretend to be the real deal. Obvious tactics of the hackers could be to create ambr0sus , AMBR0SUS, ambrosus_AMB, or some other similar looking nicknames for social media profiles. Always double check that.

People can send you information about our address for contribution that looks like a word, e.g. “ambrosus.eth”, “ambrosus”. Even if it looks really convincing, e.g. ENS address is used, do NOT trust that. ENS has not been tested for TGE purposes and we are NOT going to use ENS. Therefore any name-based addresses that are sent to you are fake.

People can send you the “best wallet” for participating in our TGE. Only trust wallets that are official. Due to working with Gavin and Parity, our obvious recommendation is Parity Wallet. However, MyEtherWallet and Metamask are likewise in good standing within the community. We do not take responsibility for their security and please note that their websites also have a few fakes that sometimes even appear at the top of google results. So if this is your first TGE ask for advice from the community. We don’t want our TGE to be your first and last one due to stolen coins. Hardware wallets are a good practice for storage if you have significant amounts stored. Ledger and Trezor wallets are both in good standing in the community. Please do your due diligence on wallets as well. Amber token is ERC-20 Compatible and thus will work with most Ethereum-based wallets. We will make a separate more accurate post about that.

Free Amber tokens are offered by someone. We only have a bounty campaign, on bitcointalk, and awards made for social media, bug bounty or content creation. We do not give out free Amber tokens to anyone. Whoever may contact you with this offer is definitely not sanctioned by us. Please also note that there are no Amber tokens in existence until 13 September.

Someone tells you they can help you buy Amber if you give them your credit card info, paypal or anything else. Well, obviously this is a scam. We do not plan to accept credit cards. Some of our affiliates might, but please check directly with us if you are unsure. Please also note that if you buy tokens from affiliates, we do not bear responsibility for their information storage.
