warning from steemit wallet

Whenever you open your wallet, you see this message under history before you start seeing your transactions.
Its a warning against scammers and their ways that they commonly used to scam on steemit.

  • avoid clicking on links when carrying out a transactions ; when carrying out transactions, avoid clicking on unnecessary links that pop up, this may be a scam link.

  • Donot provide your private key to anyone this may go beyond anyone. When carrying out a transaction and confusing link requests that you put in your private key, please stop the transaction and start all over again or wait for a while before initiating the transaction again .

  • voting of fake witnesses
    This is what is now rampant. For all newbies and even others avoid voting of a withness through a link posted under a comment section.
    Some are withness but others are fake. It took me long to realize this. Others may say its gready to vote for a withness because they offer impossible terms but out of ignorance and curiosity others may still fall victim.

  • The main solution is to prevent as it is always said prevention is better than cure and thats the mottor we should always stick to.

  • but if you realize that your keys have been deposited somewhere or you have any suspicion about your account, immediately run and change your keys
