My account is not compromised.
Word is users are spreading phishing links using my profile picture (It's not me, it's just a picture, look at the rep it says 75).
Don't click these links:
Example:
@surfermarly mistakenly gave away her Masterkey after clicking this link! (A login window appeared).
NEVER USE YOUR MASTERKEY EVER! ONLY USE IT TO CHANGE YOUR OTHER KEYS.
USE YOUR POSTING KEY FOR POSTING AND YOUR ACTIVE KEY FOR TRANSFERRING.

It's likely just scraping usernames/passwords, but it would be a good idea to run a virus scan.
Or check the URL on www.virustotal.com and see what they get.

I just checked it out, it is indeed an image that was posted, which made it look as if @exyle reacted to the previous reaction. Indeed very crafty phishing, but luckily discovered now. Too bad for @surfermarly her 90+ liquid steem that got nicked...

It is so unfortunate that people part of such a great community will resort to this to take advantage of users not paying attention. Fortunately, the platform gives options to reduce this risk by staking and using the savings feature while you can recover your account.
