RE: Steemit Crypto Academy Contest / S7W6 - Careful, Has your Steemit account been hacked?
newbies and those who have no idea about suspicious links and people who are greedy to get more and more are the main target of hackers.
I agree with this view point of yours, most hackers count on the greed in their victims, so they use attractive offers as baits to lure the greedy in to their traps.
You also made mention of devices that have been sold off, that is a very true scenario, I have recovered a lot of files from hardware that has been formated many times, formatting a drive is not enough, shared it with a good software shredder. Else the file could be drugged out and used against you. I had never thought of this possibility.
You have made a nice and educative composition here and I wish you the very best in this contest. Steem safely.
Yes I personally did recovery many times thats why I know it is not good to sell your system.
Thank you for your valuable comment :)
