Hellow Steemit Fellows馃憪

41 days away from my 2nd Steemitversary, being a target of downvote or being a victim of hacking, wrong blacklist, whatever馃槅 it won't be surprising anymore馃槉 somehow I get used to anything happens on my steemit account. I was being on cheetah blacklist last year, just because I included some links on my post while all the pictures and information I wrote was my original works.

I found my name on another list few hours ago, yeaahh... Im a victim of hacker馃槇 someone or something has used my authority to upvote many posts馃槪. You can check the list of the victims here and I just following the suggestion on that post too.

I found suspicious activities on my wallet while checking it on www.steempeak.com sometimes ago.

I joined only 1 curation trail but I set my vote power on 50%, but look at the upvotes above馃槸


I set up some autovote on steemauto and steemdunkz and I only upvote posts from people I follow or I like with my 50-100%. I set up my vote 50% on curangel@curangel's trail and ask the admin to blacklist my post from trail because I hate to see self-vote on my own. I have a bad behaviour too I think馃槅馃槄. I seldom logout from some dApps I use because I do everything on my phone.

I am a part of this tribe or community too馃槉 where I got many helps to reach my minnowhood


Countless times I became the downvote target too, but I don't really care because it's another legal thing on newsteem ecosystem. I'm not afraid of retaliation too after I joined a downvote trail. I still top up my membership on dustsweeper@dustsweeper and purchase SBI from steembasicincome@steembasicincome as well. I am a loyal one馃槉.

I posted whatever I like to post and not really worry about the payout because I'm having fun. Thanks spaminator@spaminator for announced that I'm a victim, so I can change my steemit password and remove myself from the curation trail to see what's wrong on how I manage my account.

I can't play with my steemmonsters account for few hours due to the incorrect posting key馃槀

But it doesn't makes me worry at all馃槉 I can play with the delegated decks and take care of my issue later.

so, what are you going to do if you are a victim of scamming or hacking on steemit?

Take a deep breath and analyse the situation first馃槉 then read everything carefully and thoroughly, find the key information about how to deal with it. Don't Panick, just follow the available instruction and report it to the right authority (you can join the steemcleaners discord or other community who will help you). Always back up your keys and beware of scammers who send you link on memos or comment section. Timing is important, you need to deal with the issue ASAP, but No Rush, wait patiently for few hours after you follow the steps to anticipate the situation.

I found the suspicious activities a long long time ago, but I don't give any attention because I thought it's probably good for the community. It's not easy to trace everything from my sillyphone馃榾 it's 3G and android Version 4馃榿 time and battery consuming, I'd better play the splintersland rather than checking on the suspicious activities.

I can't ignore it anymore, I can't let my account being a victim and get unnecessary attention for something I never did!

I still have a lot of things to do with my steemit account, I want to reach my dolphinhood too. I need to take care of my account if I want to have fun. Just remember馃槈 if you are also a victim of scamming and hacking or downvoting.. YOU ARE NOT ALONE so do something and ask for help if you need too.
