Re: ⚠️ How Scammer tried to Hack my Bitcointalk and how to Protect yourself?⚠️
Correct, what I mean is devices should be secured as much as possible, and should be the first priority of anyone who want to enter crypto world. Without devices security, they will lose money sooner or later.
I agree with you.
Scammers are smart and they always invent new ways to scam people,
so we have to update our devices on regular basis, and keep them protected as much as possible.
There is no perfect 100% protection ... sadly
Make sure the updates are legit. Many programs gained new vulnerabilities after being updated. For instance, some versions of wallets like Electrum had vulnerabilities.
I always say that the safest way is to keep your money offline on a separate device and have another PC to use for torrents, opening emails, forums and chats, and so on.
Also, don't click on any links you receive via pm or email unless you really know the sender.
