There are a few simple rules to follow in order to avoid having your account hacked:

Rule 3: NEVER give your active key as this key allows to control your funds! Only use your active key for special operation like money transfer or account update on trusted websites like steemit.com.

Spread the words, resteem this post to your friends, and you will make the platform safer.
