RE: WARNING: Fake accounts on Steemit and Hive

in #abuse3 years ago

thanks for your alert, how it is possible? cuz this people have a account in steemet or Hive, so some body used their names? or are the keys stolen?

Sort:  

Yes, the cheater use the fact that some of the users have account only on one of the platform and create a clone also copying the whole posts, as often the users if they use only one platform then they do not have account on other and of course they do not check the other one. The accounts are not necessarily needed to be hacked or passwords stolen.
