Open Wide Your Eyes Before Clicking On The Email Link!

in cn •  5 years ago  (edited)

Hi to all beloved Steemians,

Today, I wanna talk about the phising email scam (Yeah, even though it's the same old sh*t, but many of the newbies still get hooked with it)

The incident was happened about six days ago, where I received a so called "blockchain's account deletion" email from blockchain.

At first, I was a little bit nervous and anxious, because I don't know why my bitcoin account was deleted.

I clicked the email and checked the content...

Before I clicked the big blue "cancel" button, I noticed the url at the bottom of the email wasn't right (I immediately turned into Sherlock Pon now XD)

If you look it carefully, you'll notice that the word is 'bclockchain' instead of 'blockchain'. There's another letter 'c'!

Luckily, I double checked the url, before I proceed to the website. If not, my blockchain's account is 100% got hacked by this nasty hacker!

Moral of this story - Always open wide your eyes, before clicking on your emails, especially those with links! Else, you'll be regretted for not paying attention on it.


嗨,各位挚爱的Steemians,

今天,我想和大家谈谈,关于网络钓鱼电子邮件诈骗的事件(嗯,尽管它是老调重弹,但许多网络新手仍然不慎上当)

该事件发生在大约六天前,当时我收到了,来自区块链主站,所谓的“区块链帐户删除”电子邮件。

起初,我有点紧张和焦虑,因为我不知道,为啥删除我的比特币帐户。

我点击了电子邮件并检查了里边的内容...

在单击蓝色的特大“取消”按钮之前,我注意到电子邮件底部的网址有些可疑(我瞬间变成了福尔潘斯 XD)

庆幸的是,在进入此网站之前,我仔细检查了网址。如果不是,我的区块链帐户100%被这可恶的黑客给入侵!

这个故事的寓意——在单击您的电子邮件(尤其是带有链接的电子邮件)之前,请尽量睁大你的双眼检查清楚!否则,您将会为自己所犯下的失误感到悔恨。
