No one is exempt from falling into a scam, if unfortunately we have to suffer this situation. No need to worry, this post will give us the solution.
Steemit is an extensive financial ecosystem, where we inhabit many kind people and hungry to get ahead. However, there will never be a lack of wolves that disguise themselves as sheep, which are always on the lookout for some mistake.
There is no worse fear for any user than this:
A day like any other, we get up with the same desire to improve ourselves and the curiosity to know what's new in Steemit. Something has changed, with a touch of disbelief, we noticed that we can not enter our account. They tell us that the password is wrong, we do not panic thinking that it must be a mistake on our computer or cell phone. We look for our password where we have it stored.
It is recommended to keep them safe in offline places, in some file or notebook, in other cases we can write it down on paper.
Copy and paste, nothing ... the same message. This is where we feel our blood begin to freeze, with incredulity we keep trying to put it on, as if someone is making us a joke in bad taste.After several attempts impotence, fear, anxiety and a whole host of mixed feelings take over us. They have cheated us ... 😭
SourceRemembering the possible causes we found that suspicious application in which we should have doubted a bit more. There is no turning back, it is time to act, this is what we should do.When we discover that our password has been stolen, it is of little use to go to the police👮, the first thing we have to do is go to the official page for these cases.
Recover stolen passwords
The process is simple, we have to do it within the first thirty days since our password was changed.
- We will enter the site to recover passwords, we will put our username and password (It must be one with which you have entered in the last 30 days).
- Then we will enter the email account, facebook or redit with which we have entered Steemit.
- Later that will give us a new master password. The waiting time is not checked, so it may take between two days or a week (like when we checked in at Steemit)
How to prevent this from happening?
- Use our keys wisely.
- Never pass our password in any chat or through the wallet. Users know that it is very risky to pass passwords, therefore, we never ask for them. You have to be very careful with the people who come to ask us.
- Be careful after copying and pasting it, possibly we still have it there.
The thief took every second and transferred all my Steem / Sbd. Is there a way to get it back?
Unfortunately no, the blockchain system transactions are immutable. There are no refunds, so you have to be careful. A small tip is to have our income in SteemPower. Besides that our voting power will increase, no thief can rob us. It is impossible to get all the amount in one move, you will have to wait for 13 weeks of power down to take our savings.
And ... what happens if I forgot my password?
In case of loss or forgetting it is not possible to recover the password from the platform, it is always necessary to know the old password. As we said, you have to keep them in a safe place and if possible in duplicate.
