I have been a citizen of the Well Appreciated platform empowr.com entering my thiord year now. Throughout my citizenship, I have not encountered a Phishing of anysort from the platform on my account.

empowr is on a mission to enable an average daily earning of $25 by the year 2025 to its citizens, in a move to create opportunities, hope, and influence, to empower half of the world’s population (4 Billion people) for fighting against the decay of Democracy and against Poverty.

The empowr Marketplace offers a wide range of great items at very attractive prices someone can buy or used temporarily. Items can be purchased and shipped worldwide.

To succeed in its mission, empowr has launched a new cryptocurrency, the empowr coin (EMPR), available on the exchange www.ddex.io

empowr is the first online platform that actually pays its users. The person who classified empowr as a fishing scam did not have his facts straight. It should be removed immediately.

Mchapeyama commented 5 years ago

empowr is a very good democratic online business site. I have been using it since 2013. I love empowr and how they are paying to their new citizens. empowr is an only social platform where we earn with the help of our leaders and free coaches. empowr marketplace plays a very important role to build empowr economy. empowr coin is listed in DDEX and Metamask is a safest and easiest way to trade in exchange.

The block should be lifted soon. Thanks

Hello Admin

Its so sad to see that a reputable company like yours will blacklisted another trusted company like empowr.com as a phishing site without proper investigation. Empowr has been my only business for past 3 years now, and i am 100% safe with the platform.

Your company just spoiled my business on empowr today and am totally disappointed with the metamask company for doing this.

Please don't cause me any further damage,

Kindly renove empowr.com from your phishing site categories.

Regards Anthony Onyia

@409H We have now removed the functionality for our users to import their Ether wallets and private keys into their empowr account.

We ask that you remove this block as soon as possible.

Please advise as this is a time sensitive matter.

I'm a empowr citizen for more than 2 years and I can confirm that empowr is not a phishing site and is 100% safe

Suzzy1 commented 5 years ago

Personally I believe proper investigation should be made before arriving at a conclusion. If empowr is a Phishing platform, I don't think the leaders will advise it's citizens or members to use MetaMask in the first place. Empowr officials advised users to install MetaMask on their devices for security purposes, so categorizing empowr as phishing site without proper investigation is unfair. Fighting a platform that is even promoting and advertising your extension usage, please reconsider it. Empowr has done a lot to give hope to many and is willing to even do more.

Please lift this out as it is working against empowr without just cause.

BSergei1964 commented 5 years ago

A very promising platform, in vain you so categorically allow yourself to interfere with the work Empowr.com I'm happy with the Empowr platform.

1Sinn commented 5 years ago

I am a success coach and team leader on Empowr and with my best knowledge I can not see any wrong doing by Empowr. Once a citizen enters his private key Empowr will immeadetly encrypt the key, so that it is secured. For me it looks like the person who has started this false statement has no evidence about any wrong doing by Empowr and could be a angry bitter person, maybe a cheater who was deleted by Empowr! We do not permit cheating on Empowr! I love Empowr!

irisirena commented 5 years ago

Yesterday, someone did a lot of Empowr's guilt by tagging him as a fishing scam! Whoever has already been, let him know that Empowr will live on and prove that this is a system that works for people not against them. . If you are by chance the one who did not understand the work and mission of Empowr and described him as a scam, it is better than you are immediately removed and let all of us do things that are right and as we have been doing for many years. Empowr is real and gives every one chance to earn. I am a citizen of Empowr for more than 3 years and 100% I confirm that it is trustworthy !!

rizanka commented 5 years ago

It’s always easier to destroy than to build! I work on the site empowr more than 3 years. Reliable site is always open for cooperation. Absolutely democratic. The uniqueness of the site in its mission. Help people all over the world. We are all people on the same planet. Empowr ris a reliable site that is trusted by millions of people! Remove the block from the empowr site.

theas2018 commented 5 years ago

I have been a citizen of this great platform empowr.com entering my third year now, with 100% confidence empowr is a not a Phishing site. When empowr introduced its coin in April 2018, President talked and worked on introducing security for our funds, and we were introduced encrypted access, so when entering the private key, you receive a warning of keeping it in safe place with second level of security. I have not encountered a Phishing of any sort from the platform on my account. The person or persons who classified empowr as a fishing scam did not have his facts straight. It should be removed immediately, and classify empowr as safe site when comes to our funds and earnings. Here is the proof: screenshot_2

Marmine commented 5 years ago

When I started in empowr almost three years ago I first researched intensively what its background is. Had to wade through a mountain of negative comments, but in the end, my overall impression was and is that empowr is a beautiful initiative with the interest of the most vulnerable people in the world to improve their situation substantially at the forefront of their mind. I have never ever seen any sign of phishing activities in empowr, on the contrary. I have a distinct admiration for the founders of this platform that keep on going to make a success of their mission and goal they set out to achieve almost 18 years ago and by relentlessly working for this purpose.

Jomany79 commented 5 years ago

For me, Empowr is a multi-level system for learning and interacting with people. This is a wonderful economic model, at the very beginning of its inception. I ask the admin to remove the lock from the site because it interferes with the normal operation of users.

Hi, I was very surprised when I saw the blocking of a project in which I have been working for more than two years. For all the time I worked in a project, I have never had any complaints about the safety of my funds and the decency of the management. I ask you to unlock the Empowr, because this is the wrong decision. Regards, Vladislav Legaciov

@409H Again - we are requesting that you lift the block on our www.empowr.com and all subdomains associated with our primary domain.

A response is appreciated.

deborahrolon commented 5 years ago

@409H,

Please remove the block, this is damaging the reputation of this fine site. I have been a member for over 10 years now and they do not phish! This is really interfering with my work as a success coach there which is how I support my family, please remove immediately. I am sure whoever turned in reports was simply disgruntled members, the site does not hand you something for nothing , you need to participate and contribute to the community by helping others be successful. I am surprised that a site as large as yours would do something like this without the proper research considering the legal implications not only possible from the site itself but from over thousands and thousands of members who are having real earnings disrupted.
