Talking with the the owner of the Ironshield account in Discord now, he stated his account has been compromised and he has been locked out.
The original account owner asked me to pass it along, and share it out.
Downvoted the posts to take away rewards on some posts. If He regains control let me know and will remove the downvotes. Reblogged to bring awareness.
Thank you @alohaed - this was a shock. I appreciate you letting people know. This is Benjamin/ironshield.
I also heard the same thing from him on Discord.
I am removing votes and/or downvoting posts to slightly limit the degree of theft.
So sad. 😥
According to https://www.hiveblockexplorer.com/@ironshield his recovery account is set to lturner, has that already been changed? Because if not then he should be able to regain control of the account using an account update action from that lturner account I believe...
I didn't press for details, given the situation and stress he was likely feeling at the moment.
One of Ironshield's (Ben's) ancillary accounts is @gratefuleveryday so they may update there when and if they are able to discover how it happened.
