RE: The Most Important Thing I've Learned From Getting HACKED!!

in #mapsters7 years ago

I had a similar problem:) I know what it's like. (sad) Thanks for your advice from now I will only use my posting key! Hang on bro:) also thanks to @guiltyparties , he is doing good job by helping others. He is a great guy

Sort:  

I actually don’t know if @guiltyparties is a guy - lol
You were hacked too? Lost a lot?

Haha yeah I'm a guy. At least a lot of people are getting their accounts back now.

@guiltyparties Are there new victims coming in, or is the attack under control?

😁 You can never be sure - lol. Lots of people think I’m a guy too, and up until I talked to her 2 days ago, I even thought that @patrice was a guy (I don’t know why, ‘cos it’s a girls name 🙄)

It's not under control as the domain registrars refuse to delete the domains in question. I thought @patrice was a French guy too at first. I have no idea if you're a guy to be honest.

I'm not... Girl all the way :0)

I guess I should get more info on account security out fast...

I had no earnings, but followers, and friends there. When reputation reach 0 you can't upload any photos until rep10 so account is useless.

Did your reputation go down because the steemcleaners flagged all the comments? If so, ýou can ask them to unflag when you've edited the phishing commenrs, so you gét your rep back. That's what they did for me.

You did edit the comments, did you? What was your account?

Normally yes, but I've made mistake and deleted most of flagged posts and comments, so flag cannot be removed. Never mind, Begginers error :) It happened after few weeks sicnce my account was created . Thanks to this I will be more carefull in the future and I can tell the others what was my mistake. And yes I edited comment's which I couldn't delete:) I should only edit posts , Never delete!. I have this oportunity to learn from my mistakes.

True!
That’s the spirit of giving a positive Twist to a negative event.
For me too, this has been an important lesson. I’m glad I made it out ok, because I don’t think I would have started again from 0 for a third time...

I also heard there are hackers attacks on wi-fi, so I started to use VPN servers. Upvote, follow and wish you the best
