Beware of Phishing links posted by @amirtheawesome1
Good Morning Steemians
Unfortunately it is happening again!
While reading some posts this morning, I noticed a phishing link. As the most of those phishing links come through the comments. Looks like they stole this account recently @amirtheawesome1 and started using it to post their fishing link and upvote their spam comments.
Dont open any link posted by that user or any other user. They will steal some accounts and use them as they did before.
It looks that they are using different languages too now :(
I will report this to @steemcleaners and you can do it too, to avoid falling into their trap. Also to protect other new users of opening such links, until @amirtheawesome1 can recover his stolen account.

I've just made a post about another phishing scam yesterday...

They're popping up like mushrooms, unfortunately.
I checked it out! It is really sad. They use different strategies to trap users :(
Yes, this is getting out of control, real fast.
Thanks @hanen we all must be are own watchdogs.
Hhhh Indeed :)
Hey, those were posted when my account was hacked. Ever since I got my account back.

Please, I have gotten my account back and I'm active on it.
I am glad that you got it back. How long did it took to recover it?
I just found your comment on this post some minutes ago!

I just changed the password again. I don't know how that phishing link happened but I swear I just changed it again.
I think I joined wrong site or something but now I have it.
So if didnt comment on some two posts some minutes before, who did it! Are you sure that you recovered your account?
I honestly don't know what happened. I was hacked way before. I deleted all of the comments. I'm a very active user. Sadly I haven't fully managed protection yet. I just found out about the comments from this post.
So I went ahead and changed the main key.
OK lets see what happens in the next hours. I dont know if anybody is still using your account. I know it is a terrible experience and happened to me too some days ago. Looks like they are the same people :(
Same people with the same phishing link actually hacked me like a month ago. Maybe they programmed the comments or something.
No I dont think they programmed the comments. They also upvoted the comment. Means they used your account. The best way is to contact Steemit and get a new password.
Nice post as well as informative @hanen
Its not a good news
I definitely resteem this post because its all about for us.
Thank you :)
My pleasure mam @hanen 👍
