Hi Steemians

Today I discovered Phishing links related to this account. The owner pretends to be @ned and has his photo on his profile. So beware! Thats not @ned It is a trap and dont open any link you see in the comment sections.

There’s a good reason that such scams will continue, though: They are successful in what they are doing and many Steemians are falling for these Phishing scams every hour. New phishing scams are being developed all the time, what makes it more complicated here. Clicking on links with promising offers, are not such a smart move.

By finding out about them as early as possible, you will be at much lower risk of getting snared by one. You should never share personal information anywhere and keep your Master Key safe. Dont write your password by mistake in the memo and in case you did that, change it immediately.

You need to be careful which browsers you utilize. Read all URLs from right to left. People who serve the community wouldn't spam this way and instead write a post explaining everything it it. So recognize phishing attacks to avoid clicking on malicious links. Educated yourself about the topic, detect, report and defend against phishing attacks. Share this information with other Steemians and warn them.

I hope this can be helpful and be safe :)
