RE: ⚠️[HACKING WARNING]⚠️ FlaminGirl's tips ANTI-HACKING on Steemit - Part 1

in #steemit6 years ago

I must say this is a great post. You are right, our steemit account is more like our bank account and nobody will wish for his or her bank account to be hacked. I must also say that we should always be careful when accessing some website page on steemit because some are been used by hackers like ypu have said. Any website that is asking of your private keys instead of asking of your permission through the use of steemconnect is not to be trusted. Some hackers may also come in form of rewarding the steemit user like this
"Login using your steemit account and get a free 5 steem for registration. We should have know that that one is fake and can not be trusted. We should try to keep our steemit private keys very very careful and private to only us. We should not let any other third party to have access to our steemit private keys. And lastly also like you said we should be careful when accessing those websitw by looking at their spellings very well. Some may petend to spell it like steemit and by that they mislead many steemit user to it and by that they access theyr private keys and their account is been hacked.
This is really a great and well informative and helpful post for all steemit user.
Thanks for sharing

You are absolutely right you have to pay attention to several things and noticeably to special characters like:
  • ċ
  • ę
  • ġ
