There are many ways to trick users in handing over their account rights.
This account, @mubaraksogadar, does it by 'giving away free services'.
The link to the page is masked with AURL shortener and reads http://nullrefer.com/?https://t.co/BADyAbNr0S
which takes you to the page of http://autobotsteem.ga
.
Don't hand out your active keys, ever!
When you click 'Join Now' it will take you to the steem connect service, which is fully legit, but it asks you for your MASTER, OWNER OR ACTIVE keys!
What's the difference?
Your account consists of the following keys you should NEVER give out
- Your Master Password
- Owner Key
- Active Key
The master password and owner key can do everything including changing your credentials and transfer funds! Your active key can transfer funds.
There is only ONE key you could use, and that is the 'Posting Key'. With this key, the service can post on your behalf.
Be careful when using external services!
