RE: Steem Admin Tools / Smooth Server Reboot Script
Hi @steemchiller. I write you from Caracas- Venezuela.
Today I thought that my account was being hacked because while I was seeing part of the @ steemworld.org interface, at the top of the screen on my mobile phone from where I manage my account, it threw a message in red that said "se You have deactivated 98% of your SP. If you did not do this, act now! " The message made me nervous, which is why I immediately thought of transferring my 19 SBD balance to prevent them from being stolen. The entry into the wallet was not possible with the posting or active password. I tried with the owner key and that is how I had access to the wallet, managing to transfer my available liquidity. However, I think it appropriate to leave a record of what happened.
Then I went back into the wallet to check the SP status but it is active.
I appreciate what happened in favor of the safety of the users is considered.
Hi @gabriale, the message should only appear in case you (or someone else) started a Powerdown process for your account. I've checked your recent account operations and I could not find anything related to a Powerdown.
Did you open the SteemWorld site directly via https://steemworld.org/@gabriale or did you use the 'Switch Account' button?
The values in the Balances tab also show that there is no active Powerdown happening in your account:
This is not normal and transfers should always be possible with the active key. Did you use the Steemit wallet (steemitwallet.com)?
Hello @steemchiller I hope you are doing well. Thanks for your answer and vote.
Regarding your questions, I entered steemworld by clicking on the publication link of @ yohan2on. I entered the interface and once I was in the "view account" option, the previously mentioned warning appeared, which led me to reride the 19 SBD that I had accumulated as my brain test earnings. I entered the purse item and on a couple of occasions, it did not take me an active password or posts. It was then that I tried the owner key (suggested by the system in the box where the password is typed) and so I got access to the wallet to make the transfer to a kryptomoneda account. In any case, it seems my account is ok.
Greetings!! And thanks again.
