RE: My Account @Surfermarly Got Just Hacked! Please Don't Open Any Posts Submitted By @Surfermarly!!!
Sorry that it happened, but never use your password or owner key on Steemit (unless it's absolutely necessary)
This 100%.
Another method I would recommend though is to have the login page bookmarked so you would know that you are always on the correct site. Good thing is that the scammer didn't scam that much, but be more careful next time @surfermarly.

Bookmark?
I think that checking that you are on Steemit.com, when you login is much easier and safer.
But this is only my opinion.
Sure, but some people do have problems with attacks such as this one . . .
l vs I
or
0 vs O
or
rn vs m
or
b vs ḅ
Maybe you can see the difference, but not everybody is checking every letter and most people don't even look at the website name when the website looks how it should looks like. Bookmarking a site can totally help against this.

That - besides the fact that we have an AMAZING community on Steem - is my today's takeaway :-)
Look from where I'm posting, hehe
Just got it back!!
