Hello, @lordoftruth. I moved your money into your savings-account. You need to log in and change your master-password and save all your new private keys.

You should never give away your master-password. Steemit is only safe as long as you do your part.

Your private posting-key is for posting & voting.
Your private active-key is for moving money.

Your master-password, the one I use right now is the most important one to protect.

Steem On.

I changed my master-password and I saved all my new private keys..
Thank you for protecting and for teaching me the hard way..

But you need your master password if you want to move money out of steemit isnt it? you use private posting key for posting via other sites isnt it? good tips

what exactly happened, don´t get it???^^

lordoftruth occidentally posted his master password where it could be seen, The whitehat could then log into his account and to prevent anyone stealing his money he put everything into his savings and left him this post to warn him.

ou, thats not good xD
but also a very nice act! :)

Thank you for teaching us the hard way! ;-)

Moving into savings is a way to prevent someone from stealing his money for at least 3 days... It takes 3+ days to make a withdrawal from savings

Hats off to The Whitehat!

That was an upstanding thing to do.
