RE: Claim rewards self-activation - anyone else?

in #steem3 months ago

No, you don't have to change the password.
I am convinced that woxauto had an issue. Since your last account update, with which you removed the authorization for woxauto, there have been no more autoclaimes.
@ubongudofot also authorized woxauto.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my account! At first I also thought the problem might be there, but their claiming option was never enabled by me on their site. And other accounts that I saw with the same case do not have any authorizations at all. After I removed this authorization, no other rewards for claiming came anyway. That's why nothing has been claimed so far. But let's see.

but their claiming option was never enabled by me on their site.

That's what I thought. Otherwise you wouldn't be so surprised.
I think that will be the problem. A bug is causing its bot to claim for users who haven't even activated it.

Here you can see which users authorized woxauto:
https://steemworld.org/authorized-apps/?target=woxauto
But we can't recognise who activated the claim function.

What is the process to remove authority to woxauto?

You can use the steemworld: https://steemworld.org/account-authorities
You have to login (it is safe) and then you are able to cancel the authorization.

I dont see symbol X to remove authorization.

You should use the link I posted obove.
This will take you to this page:

There are the buttons to remove the authorities. But only remove the ones for woxauto.
However, if you also used the autovoter from woxauto, it will no longer work.

Thank you for your response. This helps me to understood how it works. Earlier I did not notice Login option on top right corner and was looking the same last days, now I know.

It seems you are right. Thank you! By way of comparison with other accounts, I assumed this was not the cause, but I don't seem to be looking for information and data in the right place. 😅

Exactly! Thank you for the clarification.

Do you activated the claim function?

I just deactivated it. Let me watch how it goes now...

Thanks for the heads-up.
