@everyone :exclamation: Programmer's Safety Announce ❗ Hey folks, quick announcement on account safety. We're seeing an increased number of accounts get hacked through phishing scams that are posted in channels or sent via direct messages. The common scams at the moment are related to Steam and Discord. When you are visiting links, be very wary of shortened/hidden urls (use a site like https://wheregoes.com/ to check where shortened urls go).
When looking at messages/domains remember the following:
- Take your time. Don't rush into things. If you're excited or tired, pause for a minute and re-read the message.
- Always double check the domain name of a link.
- If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
- You can add some protection to your account with 2fa, but if you input your 2fa into a scam site your account will be taken from you.
- Be aware of fake i-frames/pop ups!
