Tip to avoid getting scamed:

Use a password manager, or just save passwords in your browser.

This way you never type your password again. If you are requested for it, that's not the website you are looking for.
Though it's a nice concept but saving passwords in browser is not safe either. Someone having access to your system can easily find the password or hackers can steal it too.
Better to use 2FA for added security.


that is true.
it is best not to save passwords in your browser however it is not that simple to access stored passwords in browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox. they can also be password protected.
for example if you have a password for your system log in when you visit chrome://settings/passwords in your Chrome browser it will require you to input that password before it shows you sensitive information.

in Firefox you have to set a Master Password yourself from about:preferences#privacy
