RE: Download a Dtube app and got hacked
Never log into 3rd party apps with your master key. If they ask for your master key run. Only use your posting key on 3rd party apps or sites.
I knew this and am kicking myself I didn't pay attention closer. Won't happen again.
I keep all keys offline and use steemit only on the original server, it's a bit inconvenient, but I've invested too much time and sacrifice to risk losing everything.
But I'm glad you managed to solve everything. Hopefully it will not happen again!
It won't I won't be using apps anymore direct browser connection. I too keep my keys offline. I have mutliple copies in more than one secure location. They didn't get much. Shit if they would have asked and told me they needed it I am the type of person I would have gave it to them. I give to all kinds of causes and to people in need.
