RE: BEWARE!!! I GOT HACKED TODAY BY STEEWIT.COM - BUT THIS MUSICAL PHOENIX WILL RISE AGAIN...

in #steemit7 years ago

I’ll be happy to. Can you redirect me to your original post?

I must admit I started this comment because I thought you were accusing the ‘good-karma’ account for posting a phishing comment on one if your posts.

I wrote this post-length comment, explaining that the one from whose account the comment was posted was not the hacker. When I re-read your post, I noticed I had fallen into the same trap again. That’s how smart the hackers are. I read ‘goodkarma’ instead of ‘good-kama’. Fortunately, this was a mistake without consequences :0)
All I had to do was erase my one single comment - lol.

The more I hear, the more I think I was very fortunate having only 30 comments to edit. I edited them all, and then sent out a personal message to each one of those people, apologizing for being so stupid to get hacked. It took me ages.... Fortunately, most of them were very understanding :)

I’m going to make a post out of this later today, because it seems like the attack is still making victims every day.
Since I initially had no idea where to go or what to do, it might come in helpful for others.

Sort:  

See how easy it was to get fooled? I'm glad you only had a few comments to deal with... 150 was excruciatingly annoying, coupled with the fact I have RSI too makes for a painful mistake! Let's take this to the next level Mike... Use what ever pieces here from my original post and comments etc.
It will be a great guide for us all in the future.
Cheers mate.
Must get to work now.
