RE: Back From the Dead!!!!
Hi there! I know it must all sound like a bunch of gibberish but it's all true!
In a nutshell, the individual i vaguely referenced in my post attained access to my Facebook.
Gmail account was under the same Facebook.
They then proceeded to spam my personal contacts in my personal email and replaced my fb with a lude photo that was NOT me. I lost complete access for a period of time to my primary device.
Getting the email back was no easy task. That is the only way i could reset my steemit. Is this making any more sense now?
But the question is how did they get access to your Facebook? That's where it all went wrong, right?
If Facebook is that easy to hack and then the email can get mis-used, then maybe I need t make up a Facebook email account that has no address book etc.
Hmmm.......... that's actually not a bad idea now that I think of it.
I was on a video chat through the fb messenger that's where it started. You're process of deduction on here is getting close. I'm not a hacker or an "IT" professional so...
🤨
I'm terribly sorry this clusterfuck of a situation happened to you @chelsea88 So the use of a two-step Facebook verification might not be such a bad idea although it's a nuisance? I think it's a great idea of you to write up a separate post about what to do/not do once your heart rate and heartbeat stabilizes. Dang shame there are such evil people lurking on the shadows.

Yeah I had that setup on everything but fb. Smh. Thanks for the support by the way =)
Hold your head up high! You might have lost your last job but I guarantee something better awaits you.
Plus you now have some excellent cyber security experience and skills that are in demand.
Seriously, add it to your resume.
Enjoy your weekend, hun!
