I just noticed that I had received this message in my wallet:

We have frozen all funds in your account for your protection. There has been a breach of Steemit Security and several accounts have been blocked.

This is a blatant phishing attempt to steal your password and your steem.

DO NOT VISIT THAT SITE

Stay safe steemers. Thankfully the scammers reputation has already been sent into the negatives by the community. Please share this message, especially to new users.

Looks like whales are attacked. We are, at least for now, safe. They know, we have nothing to give it to them. :D . The only way for them to scam is by putting money into our account and then trying to scam later. That would be a test on their skill as well. :P . Nevertheless, thank you @bkkshadow for this information. We got to be careful .

Hi I'm a bot that has been programmed to detect thes phishing attemps. I feed this information to @steemcleaners to be dealt with. If you notice any new posts that haven't been dealt with please report them to @steemcleaners either on steemit chat or discord.

Also could you please censor that link so people don't click on it and end up with their accounts stolen.

I censored the link, good idea ;)
