Online world is broad and I think that some application may help but even we know that we are using a right application that will help us to avoid that kind of actions like phishing, scam and more, we can still be a victim of that. To prevent that I think you have to be knowledgeable to what are you going to do and think wisely the action that you are going to take.

Thank you definitely for an interesting approach against scammers, but I think even this is very small, because if a person is very well versed in programming, has never used a program for hacking, then we will fight against it at all unrealistic.

And never set easy passwords and never repeat them on different sites. The statistics also shows that lots of people continue using their wallets with easy passwords even after they were hacked

There are so many fraud case will come now in crypto and so many newbie will loss their money in it and this is true so i just ask you that if we caught the fraud peoples than i think we can make see the investors in crypto market are so much and we can see the investment in the market is so much.

Unfortunately I think that ordinary users will not be able to do anything about it, people who are engaged in this will always be, it is inevitable, you can only influence people talking about the consequences that will come if they are caught behind this case.

i think pretty much all of us know how to keep our coins secure with 2fa but its a bit hard for most of us to buy a licensed antivirus unless we have more than 2 or 3 bitcoins.

If a hacker tries to hack into a computer, it will take him a matter of minutes. But it’s best to have a good antivirus but at least some protection against hacking. 

Right to say when we have a good antivirus software in our laptop or computer then it will protect our assets to the hackers and scammers.

We can do many thing to prevent fraud. we should not do anything that we doesn't know.We should only do that things that we know properly because there are many bad people are sitting to hacked our account.

[mani982 286]

We do care overself and make our account password secret and do not share our personal information with other person.and if can afford Hardware wallet they buy it and hold our all funds in that Hardware wallet.

[Naylor89 1223]

One of the biggest signs of a scam is that if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is. also, If the project persons won't talk answer questions then that has to raise doubts.

[Ayush Singh 1175]

A developed software's and a advanced technology to keep the transactions in radar and also the users should take responsibility to protect it by there side as much they can .

We need to work together to prevent fraud. And identify those frauds and ban them from crypto. Then I think Crypto will be good for the future.

There are also other points that is worth mentioning:

 

1 - Keep changing your password every month. An old password is more likely to be hacked because it has been used so many times. Choose new passwords that are totally different from previous ones.

 

2 - When you have no work with your account, always log out and disconnect internet connection. You should not tick stay logged in because the more time your account is open, the more chance for hackers to enter it.

I personally think that people should be very vigilant, people these days can be very deceiving and we do not really know what they are trying to do with us, so I guess people should know one deeply and to not trust strangers, especially online.
