RE: Who has access to your account, has it been hacked?
Someone replied to a comment on a post of mine. It was to the popular APPICS community. Saying APPICS had an airdrop. I was super stupid and wasn't paying attention. When you clicked on the link you needed to log in. Unfortunately, my login used to be a private key. So they stole it and changed them and locked me out. If I was thinking I would have done more research. I think I was in a hurry that day doing something else, so didn't pay much attention to it.
what key did you use?
your Owner key?
or how did they shut you out?

It was an owner key, I think. It was whatever I had set up years ago when I opened the account. Again, I wasn't paying attention, haha. So they logged in with my key and changed everything. So I had to contact Steemit to recover my account. It took them a few weeks, but it worked.
