So my steemit account got scanmed!

in #steemit6 years ago

So this was day before yesterday, I was going through steem where I saw a giveaway of steem

And that giveaway lead to steem.chat

The giveaway was legit and everything.
Though it was my firdt time on steem.chat and I didn't know much about it.

So I went to general chat and started interacting with people
And got friends like @artlover.

But then this guy named nathanmars aproached me.

So I didn't know that steem names and steem.chat names can differ so I thought he was legit @nathanmars.

If you look at his profile he has alot of steem power.

He offered me 150$ for my account and I was happy to take them!

As soon as I gave him the password he blocked me.

Thanks to the steemit support though they helped me recover my account

Though I lost 0.7 worth sbd.

Not to sad about that sometimes we gotta learn the hard way :)

Here are some of the screenshots
