WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW WHERE I SHOW YOU AND EXPLAIN IN MORE DETAILS:
I just wanted to make a video and ALERT EVERYONE!! BE CAREFUL!!! These spammed messages are coming from normal accounts that have been hacked - so please dont click on any unknown links!
First thing you need to do : DO NOT USE YOUR MASTER PASSWORD - Change it on your browser and phone or anywhere you use it to your posting key! Save the master password, print it and put away! This way you can protect your account at least!
Secondly - dont log in twice and if it logs you out - check the browser - Is it steeemit or not?
Some SCAMS - www.steewit.com ; www.steemil.com
I dont know how many more there are - these just came across already! PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!
RE-STEEM , LET EVERYONE KNOW!!! BE SAFE!!
Lots of love,
Alla xxxx

Good stuff , Hackers are The one thing that could keep the public away from block chains , Such a huge problem
I guess it goes without saying that you should protect your private key (password) as you would the keys to your house.
Yes exactly! Good point!
what if you only know your posting and memo key?
Everyone who signs up gets. A master password. If you only know those you will never be able to transfer send money etc
thanks for the information it is very useful for everyone to be able to maintain their privacy and stay safe from all threats of hackers.
happy international women's day

Thanks for the heads up Alla. Good to know that everyone looks out for each other here
yes 100% ! we are a community! we have to, otherwise platform will die!
It's one of the greatest things that sets Steemit apart from other social medias
as you mention people need to look carefully at the URL.
another thing is trying to avoid surfing over public Wifi
bad people can sniff your information and password.
yeah good point!!! i try not doing it public, but everyone needs to be careful!
Scammers everywhere -.- Wherever money is involved - people will try and cut corners to gain unfair, illegal advantage.. Thanks for heads up !
I know tell me about it! It’s sooo bad!!!!

you post is great .very important post.
yes exactly! i guess they will always exist, our mission is to warn people as much as possible! yeah you are right! thanks for watching! I hope loads of people get around to see this and not be a victim!
We seriously need 2FA somehow. A few days back I also discovered a few hacked accounts and wrote about it.
ooh noo!! 2FA would be a great idea, would that be possible to do on steemit?
I am sure it can be done. Just cost of putting it in and cost of running it will be what some may be thinking of.
