Especially in crypto, scammers and criminals are crossing our ways frequently, causing losses and damage to victims.
Ig we realized the need for privacy, then scammers will not even perceive where we are not to talk of considering using us as their target on scam, in most of the cases of how scam took place, if you dig deep in the causes for that and how it all happened, we would have been the one that have granted them access to make them scammed us by the way of how we have been appearing vulnerable for an attack, which they see and took against use.
Supporting privacy can greatly help in combating crime and online scammers, but unfortunately there are not many options available to do so, especially with the government authorities’ insistence on fighting privacy on the basis that this is the most effective way to combat crime in its various forms (fraud, money laundering, Forgery...) And she may be right to some extent in that, but this will always be at the expense of individuals’ privacy, just as is done with the banking system that does not support any direction in which there is a guarantee of privacy.
As long as the government is the only guarantor of tracking down and holding fraudsters and criminals accountable, the best advice would be to ensure that any service we use on the Internet has the necessary activity licenses and can be held legally accountable in case of any suspicion.
