RE: Download a Dtube app and got hacked
Bummer you got hacked and lost some of your SBD that sucks! But good to hear it wasn't a lot more than that! Thanks for sharing your story with us so that hopefully others can learn from this and avoid having something similar happen to them as well!
I am on here so much when I couldn't comment I knew something was wrong, so I was able to stop any further damage, thankfully I don't have much of a life in the winter time. I have back issues and the winter isn't my friend.
I bet that was a bit nerve wracking even if you didn't have a ton of liquid steem/sbd for them to take. I would prolly freak out if I couldn't access my account, heh. Anyways.. As I said before, glad it wasn't more serious! And hopefully others learn as well, this is one reason I've not used my phone with steemit since I became more aware of such risks. Maybe in the future it will be more secure, though right now I only post from my computer as well.
I normally only post from my browser if I do uses my phone. I did post the video but I ended up doing what I was trying to avoid and using my what little bit of data I have left on my hotspot to do it. I have 3 days left before I get more data. Moving into a new built house and having to wait for internet for 6-8 weeks is already sucking big time.
