It reminds me of similar security messages i get so often from my fiat ebank when i log on.
Is that to much for a crypto community to do ?

I will say it again, you are completely on command of the security of your coins, it would be nice the market was not full of scammers and that something more could be done to stop them, but this is not the nature of this market, cryptocurrencies are based on freedom and this means that you need to learn how to protect yourself from the most common scams, if something as easy as to not give your private keys or your seed words to another person is too much for people then this market is probably not for them.
