It's been almost a month now and the app I got us made to prevent phishing on Steemit has got only 50 users. Meaning 400k+ are still unprotected and in danger of losing their accounts to a phishing scam. While some may think that whoever loses their account to a phish deserves it, I'm of the oppinion that Steemit should be safe for everyone and that we shouldn't have to be in a constant state of paranoia, checking to see if the URL is really Steemit.com.
So, what I ask you to do now is to help me warn other Steemians about the ongoing phishing attacks and promote Steemed Phish as a way to secure yourself far and wide to the furthest parts of Steemit. You can do it either by making a Steemit post or by making a dtube or dlive video about it.
Also, I need a Steemed Phish banner that I could put at the bottom of my every post to keep evangelising even when I'm not writing about it.

Here is my Entry bra.
Enjoy!
Great job man!
You can suggest a banner or design or change too. Thank you @runicar
Nice! No need for changes, I like them how they are now.
You can post all three of them.
yeah. Thank you so much for accepting the banners! I will use them all <3 Wait for my blog. :)
Do you want me to include your name on the banner? or change my name into your name?
Or do you want a new banner with your name? I will do it whatever you want, just to support your campaign. :)
Thanks, you could remove your name and say by @quochuy he is the dev behind it, I just had the idea and he made it a reality.
can you just make them clickable and leading to steemed phish in the google extension store?
yea, I forgot most of the photos are clickable. Wait for a moment.
done.
Hello buddy, can I propose to @quochuy? It is more better if he can do one STEEMED PHISH for android? Because most of the users are using phone. :)
I like d yellow the most, can I use one pictures for my post?
I don't see a reason why you shouldn't, that was the whole point. So that everyone that want's to help includes them in their posts. Just be sure to make the image into a link leading to the app in play store.
Hello yes you can! :)
I like that yellow one too. Very visible and looks like it’s about something important
Thank you so much for liking it Mr. @quochuy
ANOTHER ENTRY FOR BANNER!
Thank you so much @runicar and @quochuy, again it's my pleasure to vote you as my witness.
Very nice initiative. It's good to see people encouraging others to spread the word. I'll do my very best to get something written again (without repeating myself too much).
This is a great idea, and I better get going with making steem a better and safer place for everyone.
Can I participate in more than one category?
Thanks for joining the mission, glad to have you onboard!
You can, there are no limitations for this.

Thank you
Glad you liked it.
what an innovative way to get the community active in helpng eliminate phishing on steemit. I'm excited to see what they come up with for the banner
Wow!That,s CoOl :) great contest!
I will participate.
Nice, looking forward for your submission!
I have written on phishing before, this should be interesting to write about once again.
Great! Let's spread the word and let everybody know what's going on.
Hi, hear is my banner, I create it using mobile app because I don't have laptop.
I give my best, I think, any changes needed informing me, I edit it
This past few months has been rough ,steemians are really scared,for someone who has really worked hard to earn Sbd,its really sad they don't feel safe..well i have been aware of phishing attack but i never knew steemit could be prone to such..
I recall i tried writing a post on this same issue right after a friend of mine lost his account to an hacker... But i had to rush back to school which resulted in me not been able to steemit
Initially i'm in a whatsapp group where steemians come together to share idea,that was where the issue was first reported....
Its not just the phishing attack to though but also people trick others into selling them Sbd there are also groups now created on most social media E.g Telegram whatsapp and so on ,you would be invited to join the group and then they'd bring up a matter on solving or starting a project after you'd be asked to contribute to it with SBD the instant they receive it you will be kicked out of the group....how my friend lost 80sbd...
Though i don't have much time but i'll try to contribute to solving this issue @runicar
