đ 10 rules to protect your crypto from scammers
In crypto, one mistake is enough to lose your entire deposit. Save this guide!
â Never share your seed phrase with anyone. Not even âexchange support.â 12â24 words give full access to your wallet
â Enable 2FA. An authenticator app or hardware key is better than SMS
â Check links. Phishing copies of Binance, Bybit, and other platforms may differ by just one letter
â Don't believe claims of guaranteed earnings. Promises of 5â10% daily returns with no risk are a classic sign of a scam
â Be cautious with airdrops. Connecting your wallet and granting dangerous permissions can result in lost tokens
â Store large amounts in a cold wallet. Buy the device from reputable sellers and keep your recovery phrase safe
â Check the address and transfer network. Viruses can replace addresses in your clipboard
â Don't trust strangers on Telegram. Especially âexchange managersâ who message you first
â Don't sign transactions you don't understand. Even a signature that looks harmless can give access to your assets
â Keep your wallets separate. Use different addresses for storage, trading, and risky DeFi operations
đš If you've already been scammed:
âïž Never pay to âunlock a withdrawalâ
âïž Don't install remote access software at the request of strangers
âïž If your seed phrase is leaked, urgently transfer your remaining assets to a new, secure wallet
âïž Save addresses, messages, and transaction hashes
â ïž Remember: on the blockchain, there's usually no âcancel transferâ button. Save this and send it to your friends. One check could save thousands of dollars
