I am glad to introduce the @noblebot that scans STEEM Blockchain for passwords and active keys but it won't harm your account or steal your hard-earned STEEMs or SBDs. This bot is of a NOBLE character.
Why This Bot?
A few days ago @abh12345 wrote an article asking developers to write a program that will do what @sami100 did with @surfermarly and many others account but with a good intension.
While we are waiting for the above to be added to all applications where transfers are possible, I was wondering if someone could write a piece of code to do what @sami100's script is doing, but with the intentions of beating this evil script owner to the mark?
This piece of software would return the stolen money or keys to the original owner (after some form of verification), basically preventing similar scrupulous programs from getting the account or its funds.
I made this bot in response to his post.
What Can You Expect?
When this bot gets victim's misplaced key, it will determine the key type and react accordingly.
If it gets a password, it will change the password. Changing password changes all the keys for that account. So, no one will be able to steal funds from that account.
If it gets an active key, it will transfer all liquid funds (both STEEM and SBD) to victim's savings wallet. Savings wallet has a 3-day withdrawal waiting period, so funds should be safe.
If this bot changes your password, you'll be notified via wallet message with instructions to get your account back.
Will It Be Effective?
Honestly I am not sure but I can guarantee you that if @noblebot gets your key first, you won't lose your account or funds.
What is Coming?
This bot is in beta state. Most of the notifications and verifications will be done manually for now. But in future there would be some automation.
If you need to contact me, I am available on Discord as @reazuliqbal#1149.
