WARNING!

There is a phishing attack on the blockchain, where 0.001 Steem is being sent to wallets with a memo that begins: "Exclusive offer get 20 STEEM..." and ends with a link to a non-Steem site.

DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK!

It is coming from an account that has been stolen from the owner.

Me too. A normal course would be to change your password. It's what is recommended when something like this happens.

One of the accounts didn't click on the link in their wallet. It was traced back to a comment left on one of the posts. I wish I knew more about the particulars.

You're welcome. This is more for the newbies. We veterans are already used to this. Right?

Thanks for the support. Here's a little bit of !BEER for you.

Thanks for the warning. I never click on untrustworthy unsolicited links but some people always do.

It seems like there are fewer of these scams than there once were here, though. I guess this site is making progress.

Thanks for the warning. In addition to not clicking the link, it must be done. Delete it or just ignore it.

You're welcome. These phishing attacks cause a lot of trouble. They spread as fast as the plague.

Thanks for the update. There will always be people who are twisted and find joy in doing wrong

Important warning - and a great time to remind people how important it is to keep their keys safe. Using Keychain can help a lot too.
