Hey Steemers
A potential security issue has come to my attention. Steem mirror sites are starting to pop up and something that will certainly continue as we grow in more popularity. One mirror is currently running at https://steemit.vlj.lt
Mirror sites like this can be potential risks for compromising your password and access keys. The steem account recovery is a great protection for everyone - but your steem dollars/steem are still at risk if your account is compromised.
For example the mirror site has a login form. Steemers might assume they are logging into steemit.com.. this is not the case. This mirror site has no official affiliation with steem.
Security tip
Absolutely never! log in/use your steem password on any site that isn't https://steemit.com. As further good practice periodically changing your steem password is also advised.
