RE: Can someone beat @sami100 to the punch?

in #steem7 years ago

Why would I rather put a punch on @sami100 face, if you find him let me know! Ammm cool idea tho but I still think people need to be more careful when handling keys and stuff. Hey, maybe these dudes are behind the @sami100 acc... Major key alert:)

Sort:  

haha, send the boys down. Some people though, how do they come up with such evil ideas.

Deffo the first priority is to be super careful with keys, that crazy long set of characters is the most expensive thing I own, sheeeet :)

I dunno if you remember this case, it was just a few weeks after I joined Steemit. Maybe this dudes could really help, being smart and stuff :=)

Yeah I remember that one now. Maybe he'll get a ginabot ping, and I see Taraz has mention Pharesim.

Could be done and dusted by the end of the day :)

Thanks for the link @kid4life! That is indeed very interesting.

Concerning "Why would I rather put a punch on sami100 face, if you find him let me know! "

Vigilante justice didn't worked out.
For example check the activities of the sami100 account at about 2 month ago, then if you would find "him", is it the original sami100, or the one that potentially hacked that original sami100 about 2 month ago that you would hurt.
And in case you've got the innocent one, what would that make of you?

Ammm... You went too deep :O

You can be a careful, smart person, and still make a mistake. Mistakes are just part of the human condition. Have you never lost something expensive because you had something on your mind and misplaced it? If not, I would like to know how you got your superpowers so I can get some of that.

I did lose stuff before, but not online. Here, you really need to be extra cautious. I guess the superpowers are just checking what the hack your doing at least twice hahha

It just drives me cuh-raaazy when people on Reddit (or whatever) get all like, "STOP TRADING CRYPTO YOU DESERVE TO BE POOR YOU IDIOT." It happens Every. Single. Time someone gets hacked and posts a warning about what happened or asks for assistance. I've gotten that one before when I asked a simple question about security measures--in that case I hadn't even been scammed or lost anything; I was actually asking for advice in preventing that. Ugh, crypto bro traders are the absolute worst. It's the cultural intersection of Reddit + 4chan + finance bros + tech bros. Not specifically accusing you or anyone in this thread about being aligned with that faction of the crypto world--in fact, the civility is the number one reason that I really appreciate having this place to discuss crypto--was just throwing in there that this could really happen to any of us no matter how careful we are. Though of course it wouldn't hurt to give people a run down about what the different keys do.
