Hacker Warning: Victims Come Forward!

in #spaminator5 years ago

Recently a new type of hacker has been active.

The hacker account name is @test240 and what it does is steal both STEEM and SBD from it's victims. It does not change keys or do anything that isn't directly related to stealing funds.

In order to stop this hacker we need more information from the victims. We already have some leads thanks to some victims and thanks to @blocktrades. But we need more information.

Were you hacked?

Message @guiltyparties GuiltyParties [.com]#5071 on Discord right away or ...

  • Did you accidentally post your active key or password anywhere?
  • Did you open any suspicious files or attachments?
  • Did you do anything at all that you can think of that may have lead to being hacked?

Omg doing the same to me is driving me crazy between this guy and steem cleaners.

I am getting flagged for posting my own artwork and photography.

Is that recent? I haven't seen any flags at in the past 7 days on either your or ewasteguy1 account

Unless I'm mistaken

I eventually got them to remove it!

Good outcome in the end.

I suppose with every process that is somewhat automatic there will be false positives + I by using steemit we accept that people can flag us for no reason other than they feel like it. It's a bit different when it's a massive account with a specific purpose.

What annoyed me was more I got accused rather than asked if I had plagersised. 🙈

Such sloppy websites are a good tool for criminals.

Connection not secure? Nice...

That will do it.

Is that same group that's been memo-ing people?

I guess so.
I also got a memo from that one.

Definitely could use some SSL/TLS love but to its credit it does use SteemConnect. Any idea who owns it?

I thought this was @holger80, but not sure.

edit, if it is sending memos - unlikely holger :)

I am new to crypto and thanks for your valuable post especially about Steem hackers. This will create awareness for the new Steemians.

Appreciate the heads up. Happy to see an active approach to sharing knowledge about dangers out there! Stay safe everyone.

Thanks for the heads ups, from having a quick look at the mentioned account followers it shows the same peeps behind lots of troll and fake accounts marcusmalone, sp-group are behind it or involved somehow. I have a big list that I have been putting together for all these troll fake account created for the past few month if its of any help let me know where I can submit it to and it will be my pleasure to share it.

Keep up the great works, kudos

You need to piss off with flagging every comment I make and ruining my rep score... I got enough shit going on I can't change like a custody battle... this I can change if you dont stop it on your own .. ill hack this account and drain its steem
