And change your passwords on a regular basis.

Different usernames, different passwords for everything. Dozens of letters/numbers/uppercase/lowercase. Write them on a piece of paper and hide it. Type them every time. STAY SAFE!

Personally, I type the password in an incorrect order, then copy and paste bits of the password and reorganize it.

Can't be too cautious, with keyloggers and such out there.

change your passwords often! when you think you have changed them enough, change them again. just make a habit out of changing your password each time you log in. that will render those of us who might hold on to a phished password while waiting for a deposit powerless.

BARE MINIMUM change your password after EACH deposit at least until SR implements a withdrawal PIN or second password for withdraw.

Remember that this advice is coming from a phisher. I really do want this community to succeed!

A lesson learned, man. Hopefully you didn't lose too much coin.

Different username/passwords for everything. Nothing related to anything in your personal life. Not related to each other.
