2FA protection for each and every account is very important and you shouldn't share your main account every where and antiviruses are the most important thing.

[galxy89 8]

Knowledge is the best way to Prevent fraud and where ever you are, in any platform, there are many fraud that hunt ever person move. At this moment many fake projects prepare their document perfectly.  More attention from us to projects and finding something wrong will make us safe and free from fake trap. Ask to someone that know about that thing, get more experience to make yourself expert, and sometime, you need to be victim to get more experience.

Many people use 2 factor authentication for more safety and avoiding fraud but they don't know something important about 2 FA that is worth mentioning here. People often use their main Emails for receiving 2FA codes to gain access to their accounts but this is a big and dangerous mistake! Why? Because you work with your primary Email and it is known by so many foreigners and it is likely that some scammers know your primary Email too. To increase your safety one step further, create another Email as your secondary Email and don't do anything with it except receiving your codes.

Use anti virus and always keep your website password and other information written in a paper. If you keep your valuable information in your hardware then hacker will be able to reach it. Do not click any spam mail and link from unknown user.

One of the factors why People are often exposed to scams is greed and the desire to get profits in quick time. In terms of investing in crypto, money is the only think people think about. So the most reason why people are easily cheated could be they want to make huge profits instantly. Then they are lack of information and they are easy to trust others.

And they don't even consider the dangers of losing what they have either. The mistakes sometimes can cost a lot. There are people that lost all their crypto thinking that they would double up with the fake giveaways and other scams. Yet some people think that mistakes makes us learn. Learn what? How not to lose again all our money? We've already lost them all. This is why research is needed to avoid any mistakes at all. 

Rushing into a decision can be extremely costly.

your tips is really great , i used a antivirus in my pc . that's is really a advanced antivirus , I never save password on chrome becuase their is some fake websites who easily assces our chrome .

never share email that's is linked with our personal wallets .

[Strygwyr 317]

Yeah, that was some good way to protect you for getting any malicious hardwares or softwares. 

If you are using windows as your OS, your Windows Defender is enough to protect you from malwares. No need to buy for anti-virus softwares, but you have to update your WD for better protection. 

 

Don't fall to any fraud and be safe!

Always buy the old coins becasue old coins will give us good profit than the new coins and we can make good profit in the market through the crypto coins but we need to invest in the good projects always and than hold that coins for the future.

There are many ways to prevent ourselves from frauders and hackers but we also have to be extra careful with the ways we behave online:-

- Avoid clicking on an unknown link.

- Avoid joining unknown telegram group by switching to "contacts only"

- Make good research before joining any sites.

- Create strong password with combination of small letters, capital letters and numbers. 

  They have many ways to attack always be cautious.

In sort we can say, we must be aware of everything going around us. We must keep in mind that crypto transactions are irreversible. We must know about the scams going in crypto world.

[Izeal 4404]

And one of the main reason is when you open the suspicious mails which can contain the virus and all your data can be leaked or damage. There are many types of fraud like they can fraud you by selling some fake items and make you to buy fake items and spread virus. So, you should be very careful and always trust only one person that is you yourself.

To avoid is the best, but getting anti malware is good. But still after getting the anti malware, you still need to avoid malware, because some malware may be able to still penetrate devices that have the anti malware. Avoid is the main key here for malware not to steal from your devices. 

[Guru2050 8284]

Actually it's true, Especially these three key points you mentioned;

1. One should not save his/her personal details, private keys online.

2. Avoid login in to strange links, adverts  that come your way

3. Telegram campaigns.

Avoiding these three things will keep you peaceful, safe and stree free from falling as a victim of scammers.

- If possible, obtain anti-malware software against trojans.
- Once a month check your browser plug-ins, delete the ones you don't know.
- Do not store your passwords on your computer, write on paper; at home and at work.
- Have a combination of symbols + uppercase and lowercase letters + numbers in your passwords. Example: KjTy876 & / () + $
- Do not click on links from unknown places.
- Telegram accounts of exchanges do not send you the first message. Block those who seem to be trying to help.

 

If you want to add, you can write under the subject.

I really appreciate you for bringing up this updates because I always store my password in my chrome browser infact even my account details are stored in my browser I will try to clear it off.

Thereis no telling what hackers can do , and the very first thing we should do is to make sure that we understand what would be the best thing here, storing your information away from them the best way to store your crypto currency from them is to make sure that you store them off the radar , which means offline would be the best method one would be able to stop the hackers , other than that am not really sure what else to do . Use ledger wallets that would be the best option for me, strong passwords can be good but sometimes hackers are smarter.

That's the best advise, you need to invest in your security better to buy cold wallet because when your cryptocurrency is on the internet it is prone to hacker. Don't easily trust anyone on internet better to make some research to those people so that you can prevent from scamming. 

[Teresa112 37]

Thank you so much brother for posting this valuable advice!  Avoid fraudulent activities.  I hope many newcomers will follow these tips well and will not fall into the trap of fraud.  Using a complete antivirus is also an effective method.  However, not sharing your personal information with strangers is a really effective method. If you are tempted, please do not share your personal information. If he is not known to you.

[diferlol10 36]

The main thing you should do is check where you are entering, if the pages you visit on the Internet are trustworthy and something that will directly protect your computer is an antivirus that contains protection for cryptocurrencies and thus secure your wallets
