Today has been a half day for me here on Steemit. I needed a break after yesterday so I've mainly stuck to keeping track of the phishing threats and puttering around the house.
I believe there has only been 1 new account in the last 24 hours that has been stolen with 4 being recovered. Yeah! Scores 4 to 1 for the good guys! My most recent search only shows two accounts with new phishing posts in the last 6 hours. I think users by now are pretty aware of what is happening.
I don't talk about account security much but I encourage everyone to practice safe guarding their keys. I do this by only logging in with my posting key 99% of the time. I log in with my active key when I need to transfer funds. I'm seriously thinking about changing that and I'm investigating using the CLI wallet or Vessel by and not logging into a browser with the active key at all.
I have my owner keys:
*In a spreadsheet two different thumb-drives both encrypted with a password. One in my safe and one at my desk.
*A hard copy printed and stored at the bank in a safety deposit box.
I'm not paranoid so I do login to mobile devices with my posting key. I just make sure that they are secure as well.
I want to thank everyone who took the time to write a comment showing their support for what I do. Some days the value of the support I receive via comments and everyday chat is invaluable. It keeps me focused, gives me ideas, and makes me feel like I make a difference.
She's going to release some big news soon, so pay attention.
Can't keep the cat in the bag... Just Kidding! Yes, I should be making an announcement by the middle of next week if everything goes smoothly. Stay tuned!
Thank you for the support and for your post Meet A Mystery Steemian Who Has Been Taking Your Garbage Out For Over a Year.
I feel like I've been lazy today. Time to get to work for a couple of hours.
