Watch Out For These People!
Accounts that have been upvoting scam post, most of these accounts have reps of 25 and are new
I've talked with @birjudanak and I believe he is a victim of the phisher, not the perpetrator.
Furthermore not all of the accounts you have listed are compromised.

I just came across another article for a different user running the same scam, also @sift666's account was hacked, so I'm wondering if he clicked on something like this...@kiwideb made a post about it.

You have to enter your master key to get caught! I read that many people leave their master key in the memo section when they transfer sbd or steem. I can't remember who ran a search on this...I think it was @thedollarvigilante.

When I pasted my master key into the memo section by error, an automated security procedure prevented me from completing the action, so is it even possible to share a master key with the world using the memo section?

Yes, Steemit does not allow to share master key in a memo.
Where did you encounter the opposite?

That's what I read on someone else's article...that many accounts exposed their keys this way. Let me see if I can find it.

Old news.
This problem has been solved since then.
You can open a new account and try pasting its master key in a memo and see for yourself what happens.
While I might have joined steemit just before this problem was solved, I also joined it just before any vote bid bot existed and more so before any of those bots became affordable to me (the cheaper ones were created later)

Hm. When I transfer steem or sbd I go through blocktrades, not just the steemit blocktrades, but the site, I provide the site with my wallet address and they in turn give me a different encrypted address to use every time on steemit, so I don't use my master key.

Yeah, I don't understand why anyone would give someone their master key or use it in the memo section.

high levels of redundancy in most block chain networks plus their de-centralised or distributed nature make them more robust than most other electricity dependent networks!! ( I think) & come the zombie apocalypse, you'll still be able to buy stuff with bitcoin.. gulp, let's hope so. It is all up for grabs and is being billed as the greatest shift of wealth in history. let's hope so. It's in the very wealthiest people's interest to relinquish a few percent of their riches to everyone else, lest the whole thing comes to a full stop. It seems pretty well organised, this cryptocurrency revolution. I think $10,000 in the top 5 crypto coins will be worth up to 100k in less than 5 years. HOARD & HODL :)

@reddust,
Phishing links and websites are the main source of scamming people! Once I had an advertising based business and one of my admin of the site accidentally clicked a perfectmoney phishing site and given all login details and I experienced a huge loss at that time :/ So what you did today is great! No matter what's the reputation level, if we found scammer we should knock him off!
Cheers~
