I’m not sure how a platform can ever possibly ‘catch-on’ when it’s single line of user-protection is advising it’s users not..to..click..on..any..links.. It especially sucks when trying to use other platforms running on the Steem Blockchain which require your password such as Dtube for example. Since Steemits sole defensive strategy is for users not to clink links and definitely not to input their passwords the whole thing gets schizophrenic in a hurry. And thanks to the miracle of decentralization your recourse after being victimized is zero.
