And also, using devices where coins are stored to browse frequently is not right, we should not really use it to browse or minimizing how we use it to browse.

Some times we can't  read any e-mail carefully and click the malware links, are some time we install app ask permission to access mobile, then also we can't check what permission give this apps, its a small mistake but some times we loss our all money, because mistakenly we gives our mobile access control to hackers  hand, they stilling our money so always check carefully and avoid new e email messages.

These all malware attacks are very dangerous. Hackers can steal all your assets by those malware softwares like combo jack. So it's recommend to take good security care of your phone or PC. Always runs good antivirus softwares and don't click on any unknown links or adds.

Yes, you have to be very careful these days.  I try not to open links that I do not trust.  Do not store the keys on your computer, also use the antivirus program and the Metamask extension for ERC20 tokens.  Be very careful and careful.

Browse in a safe way and avoid malware is the best, anti malware may not be so effective. Prevention is better than cure.

Whenever someone click the useless links then he may be affected by malware virus which can steal his money. So we need to be careful while clicking the links specially in emails.

It is very important to have a good antivirus and malware fighter if we are planning to use our devices as storage devices for our crypto, as if these devices become infected our private keys are at risk and the funds that are within the wallet can be stolen. This is definitely not a good thing. Therefore you are right in saying that we need to protect our devices and the best way to do this is to have regular scans and furthermore it is important to be careful of the websites that you visit, as many websites also contain malware that can infect your device.

That's not the only problem Ive read some post here telling a kind of virus that can attack hardwares wallet. It was called clop, correct me if im wrong, this virus exist on the installed pretending a source file. Remember the file with .clop it will automatically destroyed your anti virus. Then it will encrypted your wallet and all coins will be gone instantly.

One of the ways in which you can fight malware that cannot steal your information from your phone or computer is by using a good antivirus (Malwarebytes is the best I have tried) and the use of physical wallets, greetings.

[Aurora2020= 17]

Interesting information, the truth was not aware of it, it would be good to back the portfolios well to avoid this type of loss.

[CARLOS15071 85]

Good information, the truth is that our phones and computers are under constant threat from hackers, for this reason we must have an antivirus that blocks all kinds of information theft from our computers and phones.

[Mano1 74]

For security, you must use a computer, and you must have an anti-virus program and two-factor authentication program to protect from penetration

[Eleazar42 73]

Thank God I keep my phone secured with a good antivirus to prevent malicious people from wanting to steal my information and it is up to now that the wallets that I have installed on my phone have not given me any problems.

[LuisM 89]

All wallets whether they are from computers or mobile devices are not so secure, so that nothing bad happens to you with these wallets I recommend that you use hardware wallets that are very secure and reliable.

[Pasha1606 44]

Yeap malvare and trojan can really bring a huge damage to crypto wallets.They can catch 2Fa codes and your passwords and even secret phrases and thats why be sure I havent some malvares on your computer or phones.

[heatdz 53]

in phone i use trust wallet.

[gabegam 19]

Good post, it is true you have to be attentive to any virus vulnerability or any attack on the PC or mobile, you have to be attentive to security and change passwords every so often. Greetings.

to discover about this, it is enough simply to lose money, usually such packages achieve this that they may be no longer noticed by using antivirus software program, and it's far higher to use a hardware pockets to now not consider it

[Kabirmia 40]

I think we should use wallets knowingly. We can be in a lot of danger if we don't use our wallet knowingly. I use Coinbase wallet on my mobile phone. I think this wallet is much safer and easier.

[gaby89 110]

Thank you for making a quality post, many of us are just starting and we do not take these types of risks into consideration.

[hedi90 79]

To protect your wallet, do not enter it on a public Wi-Fi network or download unknown programs or applications, you allow them to do so, or in the correct sense you give them behaviors and permissions to access anything in the phone, so be careful of any application you carry

This post is very good advice, so it is best not to visit fraudulent or unreliable pages, but above all to keep our devices like pc and cell phone clean, keep it with antivirus that do not allow viruses, if nothing is known about So then hire someone who knows and activates the antivirus, this is very necessary, neither click on ads that are not reliable, which even in some cases are unnecessary, and avoid downloading files or videos on pages that are not known, but do so. more advisable is to maintain it for viruses, and use a reliable wallet.
