RE: [ Powered by Steem ] Browser extension to prevent phishing scam attempts

in #steem7 years ago

We really need it. Looks like many scammers are here lately. My account was stolen yesterday and abused :( They upvoted their own comments and downvoted other users. They stole many accounts and transferred money to their other account.

Sad to hear that, do you know how you landed on the phishing site? And which one was it so we can add it to the blacklist.

Yes one user commented on my post and I followed the link :(
I wrote this post yesterday regarding the what happened and shared more photos.

They steal accounts with high reputation to make people trust them :(
I hope this can be helpful.
