Public Service Announcement (PSA) - FAKE SITE: STEEMIL - PHISHING ATTACK ! ! ! BEWARE ! ! !
I have recieved the same type of phishing attack from 3 different accounts in the last 24 hours.
The Phishing Attack is a FAKE MESSAGE FROM GRUMPYCAT
The message looks to be from GrumpyCat, but it is not and you have not been flagged.
Do not click on the links - they go to a fake steem site and want you to enter keys.
There is a fake site / copy of steemit and it is steemil. That's an "L" not "T" at the end. Do not put your keys in that fake site.
The Phishing Attack is a FAKE MESSAGE FROM GRUMPYCAT
This attack is focused on the emotion folks have against GrumpyCat, by being a fake message from GrumpyCat.
So, when someone reads the flag message, it appears with the same image and text from GrumpyCat.
DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINKS
The Attack is coming from MANY COMPROMISED ACCOUNTS
I recieved the phishing attack from three different accounts: sek3, kilbride, mrs-yammy.
These accounts have been hacked / stolen and used in the phishing attacks. There are more.
Here is an image of the Phishing Attack from the FAKE GRUMPYCAT.

Yeah, I was already wondering why I had a steemil.com tab open, now I know where it came from. Noticed it straight away though, due to the fact that I wasn't logged in anymore.

I'm glad that you did not login / give your keys to the fake site.

Yeah, that's the benefit of using a secure password manager and seeing that the login didn't get autocompleted :)

Thank you very much for the info. I have been receiving offers from several accounts: I send them .5 or 1 SBD and they will flood my articles with upvotes. Is this true ? Is it an ethical procedure ? Is it approved by steemit ?

Me too. Shame that they brought phishing on to this platform but Steemit is a reflection of the real world. So no surprise there. np on RS. My thoughts, why re-write when someone expressed it perfectly already? 😉
