Scammers are stealing steemit accounts by phishing attacks. Please be safe.

Some cheap, stupid users are trying to steal the steemit accounts by phishing attack. There is an account continually making posts with the title '' New Glitch in Steemit '', he is putting the scam link within the post like ''read the full article''. Guys do not click that link. It's a Phishing attack link.

If you ever click this it will redirect to another STEEMIT like URL and ask you to enter your STEEMIT credentials. Do not ever enter your credentials in those text fields, you will lose your accounts. It's absolutely big scam. This man is stealing accounts and transferring funds from stealing accounts to the unknown bittrex wallet.

Beware of these scammer monkeys do not be a victim. This scammer is already in cheetah bot block list but i don't know why this account is not stopped working yet. This platform operates on top of the block chain maybe it's not possible to delete the accounts.

Phishing is a very cheap trick, this is too olden, you can see this very often in your email accounts. Some unknown person sent you the url and ask you to enter the credentials. I think people are aware of this attack. But I feel there many people are not aware of this yet.

I can see some innocent users like house wives, School boys are also using this platform who doesn't know about these attacks. I hope they all will be safe.

And I suggest you all that do not check out the posts which are in @cheetah bot block list. If you ever these types of scammers you better block them so that you won't see them again on your feed.

Note: This man is continually changing his profile picture and name. And keep on posting many links in no time. Be safe.
