It's now more than one month that I fight against phishing. Fortunately, I am not the only one to lead this fight.
I work closely with the 
There are many others fighters an helpers like 
They are people that regularly notify us when they discover new attacks like 
Please apologize for not mentioning everybody here … This does not prevent me to be very grateful for this collective effort to protect Steemit’s community and users.
Smear campaign going on
However, it seems that, as a result of my prevention work, I have personally become someone particularly annoying for these little thugs. Therefore, they started a smear campaign against me to damage my reputation.
How? By making believe that I participate in or that I am the author of their dirty work.
They started a first disinformation campaign 17 days ago to spready FUD (Fear Doubt Uncertainty) among users.
3 Days ago, they included my name in their phishing links
One step further

Seeing this, my reaction was: "Isn't writing all uppercase considered shouting?" ;)
Don't spit in the wind
This way of practicing is really pathetic. This is to consider Steemit users for idiots.
Do you think a thief is really stupid enough to leave his name everywhere or has he set traps to rip off his victims? Do you think that Steemit users are foolish enough to believe that?

In doing so, you only strengthen my determination to protect people and to fight your actions.
Find another playground than Steemit, because I will never leave you alone!"
My statement in now forever in the blockchain!
