That would totally suck! Wonder why people are still using master keys to log in :(
Steem needs to do a better job of explaining this, not everyone that uses the platform is a crypto wizard
The phisher is still using go daddy from his previous url, and the name ned scott.

Wow pretty low....
scamming is everywere... The re will be a time when you are at the dentist you must pay some bitcoin first otherwise they pull out your teeth... terrible
I read a post where the author said the account is hacked...
https://steemit.com/steemit/@samstonehilltube/samstonehill-has-been-hacked-and-cannot-be-re-accessed-how-did-this-happen-and-what-are-the-solutions
Thanks for the tip buddy!
My pleasure man! Good news! The account is recovered now!
that is weird ! I had a look in your wallet and @samstonehill account is called account security ??? time to call in the S.B.I on this case (steemit bureau of investigation)
HAHAHAHAHA
It's scammers. Do not believe them, they only need easy money.
Man it is becoming really difficult day by day which message to trust
hope we can get rid of those accounts in the first place
It's a sign of growth. They will be able to fix it with time.
that is indeed .
Wow... account compromised! Pretty much a Steemian's worst nightmare...
Funny thing is, if you stay POWERED UP they can't steal your funds, lmao!
They can slowly as the new account owner can power down.
Right, but as long as you have your master key and the email you signed up with, Steemit team can help recover your account, so they shouldn't get too much, or nothing if they can do it in less than 7 days. @samstonehill lost the email that he signed up with, which is why he will lose everything.
Of course, best thing is to never lose your account.. :) thanks for the info, hadn't seen this scam.
I saw a post about the exact same steemian.. lithe account was hacked from what I believe and they are powering it down.
Got it thanks, it was so strange because the account was legit. How are they powering it down if they lost control? Was it the result of the DDOS?
I’m not privy to that info, however some believe it was from outside (DDoS), I however think it’s some discruntled ex steemians. There are quiet a few of them I have in mind.
The person who took over the account is powering down to take the money. There is no way for the original owner to do anything about it anymore at this point.
You didn't investigate closely enough ;P
Anyways, his account got hacked, the orignial owner is @samstonehilltube
Yeah I wanted to get the post out to make others aware of it, I included that in the update about 30 minutes after the post.
