RE: This One Here Is For You @Sami100: "You Can Steal My Money But You Can't Take Away My Happiness!" || Be Careful Steemians And Protect Your Private Keys!!!
Scary stuff. All it takes is a lapse of concentration, a copy and paste in the wrong box (like you said) or writing the password in the wrong box thinking it was a different one, and your account can be drained just like that! It's a shame that people can't be more honest but some people can't help themselves when temptation is put in front of them, even if it is a measly $18.
Looks like you've more than made up for it in this post though, and it's a stark reminder for all of us to not get lazy and let our guard down. Resteemed :-)
Thank you so much for your support @lewisjfclarke!
That's it: we must not get lazy and our guard down at any time. It's hard to be 100% concentrated all the time, but when we send money from one account to another that's what is required. If we blog post and make a spelling mistake, then this will be forgiven. A money transfer to the wrong address might not be forgiven, and we can lose everything. So that's the best motivation :-)
Again, thanks for stopping by and spreading the information!
No problem, it's always good to remind people to triple check things when it comes to money
