This guy been stealing Steem/SBD by stealing their keys.

You should also pay attention if you have given access to Dapps.

Things you need to check from steemworld.org/@username

  • Recovery account
  • Given authorities

You can use the tool by @steemchiller steemworld.org/@username to check the authorities given to Dapps from your account.

Revoke access

PS also check your "Recovery account" Set it to someone you trust so that you make recovery in case your keys are compromised

  • now go to the tab "Authorities".

  • Click on sign to see your given authorities

As you can see I have given access to steemauto app by posting key, so it only have access that a posting key allows means it can't have access to my wallet activities.

  • After successful log in, you will be able to see all the authorities you have given for every key, Posting, active, Owner and memo key.

So you must remove any additional Dapps that you have given but you aren't aware of that app to keep your account safely.

For further help you can always DM me on discord I will help you out personally.
