RE: HACKED ! Beware of Phishing Sites

in #teammalaysia7 years ago

Thanks for spreading the information, @bitrocker2020.
I was hacked myself last week. I was tricked by a fake ‘Grumpy Cat ‘ message. I was stupid enough to use my master password for daily logins... :0(
Once the hackers got into my account, they used it to send out their phising messages to other people. They also sent my SBD to an exchange and started the power-down process.

Fortunately, thanks to the help of a lot of people, I could recover my account ánd my reputation score before the hackers could get away with more money.

Yesterday, I posted a detailed guide on how to get your account and reputation score back after getting hacked
If you know of someone who has been hacked, feel free to refer to this guide.

Thanks for sharing @simplymike , sorry to have heard about ur account getting hacked . There are tons of these scams going on these days .

Yep, it is still going on. As long as the scam websites can’t be taken down, the hackers can have their way...

what does the fake grumpy cat message look like?

It looks exactly like the real grumpy cat message (of which you can see an example here, but the ‘Learn More’ link redirects to a phishing site, like steemil.com or steewitt.com (there are more of those)

@simpymike can I ask you a question on discord?

Of course you can.
