RE: A conversation with Steemit HACKER @accounttransfers & IMPORTANT SECURITY SUGGESTION for EVERYONE!

in #steemit7 years ago

In truth I have nothing against him, as is my way. I cannot know his experience of this world and do not judge him.

I have the same philosophy. It's always easy to hold but it's the one that make the most sense in my opinion.

Sort:  

It is a sound philosophy, just difficult to implement in the moment when the heart-rate is high.

Labels like good and bad are always perspective based. Makes me think of something Esther Hicks said to demonstrate this. Upon seeing her cat eating a bird she shouted "BAD CAT!" and the cat replied, "Good bird!"

Same event. Opposite perspectives. And who is to say which one is right or wrong?

But.... if he's actually stealing people's money, then it's a bad thing. Hasn't actual money been stolen from people from these hacks? Theft is a serious issue and should not go unpunished.

yeh hes just pushing buttons at the end of the day, pushing buttons on a computer and typing and clicking, makes you wonder, since theres no actual physical violence in this sort of theft and the Op actually gave away his money when he gave away his master key... what if someone sels their steemit account for bitcoin and then does a account recovery? Hmm lots of problems we should probably trouble shoot and think out before they happen in real life! anyway yeah what if this hacker is super poor and literally has no other way to make money?

The "hacker" (and we shouldnt give them that mantle as they did not create anything special here just a lame phishing attack, more of a scammer) seems young and wa sled to beliueve maybe that theyu wouldnt be able to make much money in their world unless they sold drugs or something so this is his way to make money without a risk of going to jail or getting hurt, or so he thinks, but someone will easily track him down one day and he will get hurt, because the world is not like it was with identity theft and peopel will hire other black hats to track them down and its crazy the drknet markets have people ready to offer any service for money ! Which didnt exist before you couldnt offer service sonline for money because there was no safe way to actually accept or make payments online but now with crypto that's been taken care of, using Monero........ but npow people can actually pay to track peopel down etc

Anyway this hacker is funny,ghe tried to act like he "gave the account back" to be nice or osmething so funny

but yeah you being open minded about this will earn u many followers

ALSO im GLAD This came up to help steemut users have better secuirity AND to remind people not to fall for this stuff since steemit dioesnt use messages like that for any important things ! ive been WONDERING about account recovery and ALSO its a REMINDER for all of us to change our passwords often and to keep our private key master keys very safe and backed up in multiple physicl places etc

Alright thanks again for the posts VERY happy you got your account back!

I bet your partner is relieved lol you were like "She will forgive me in time" dounded bad lol glad youre back in business! I hope youve learned your lesson about keeping all your money in ONE wallet, i hope you now have some money in Bitcoin in a wallet on ur smartphone or laptop liek Exodus and backed up multiple times...OR just use openledger,io to keep some BTC and maybe u should also just use ur secondary steemit account u started using for a lil while there, hey u should use that one putsoem SP nit and use it as a backup! always good to have anothr steemit account with some Steempower and money in it JUST in case!
