There's been a lot of hacks lately. I've had to deal with at least 3 recovery attempts so far and it seems like fraudsters and phishers are upping their game.
Please be careful not to click on any links unless you trust the people. Your account's security may be at stake.
Kind of crazy they're bothering with all this at these markets, but naturally, for scammers there is no low point.
Make sure to tell people not to click on spam links or any suspicious links unless you trust the person fully. Even if you're getting messaged on Discord by reputable Hivers, ask them to send you a memo or something involving active keys to prove you're talking to the right person and not an imposter - as was the case recently when someone was pretending to be a high ranking witness attempting to deceive a user to gain access to their private keys.
Generally keep your keys stored and secure and never paste them anywhere, even if you're using keychain, make sure you trust the website and people behind it.
This guy sent me Hive with the memo three times with a interval of a day argh 😫

Is there no way to flush them out of the Hive? 😭
It would go against freedom of speech/decentralization to do so. Front-ends could potentially blacklist them from view, but for now all we can do is educate people because this can happen anywhere and people should be more careful with sensitive keys/passwords in general.
Oh I see and I get your summation; which is DECENTRALIZATION, thank you for educating and clarifying,I would just be careful and inform others as well.
One should always double-check before clicking any links, even from familiar contacts.
I received this one too, can't even downvote it as it has no comments or posts... Lot of fake *.reward, name impersonating... Seems like low price is promoting even more scammers than before, maybe they think people care less now
Turd blossums. one and all of them.
Does that mean we have finally gone mainstream?!
