Memos, keys and passwords, Balrogs and Fields of Despair. Be safe. Almost $100k wasn't.

I never used my Private Key which is printed since I created my account!

I Just used my active for transfers and every day I use Post key. I keep them in a pen drive encrypted and I use a Mac Book Pro, not windows which is hard to be hacked, but not impossible.

So I really dont know what happened to my account today earlier. After my keys were not working I tried to put my owner keyin login to change and even my owner key was hijacked :=/

I'm awaiting the recover link from steemit.

Tks for all the information @gtg

PS: I hope @steemit can increase safety measures with 2FA or so with more people coming now. This is a lack of security since I'm not a dumb and I never shared my key in memos or with anyone ;-)
