Perhaps being careful is not just enough but also educating ourselves with the right knowledge regarding scams, phishing links etc is very important hence to protect us a little bit more as the internet itself is not a safe place.
I agree with that. But you cannot deny that being careful is most important. For example, I knew how these phishing scams work. But I was careless one night, and I was scrolling through social media, and I suddenly received an email. I was kind of sleepy and saw the email was from an airdrop hub website, and the email said I had some unclaimed reward. I went ahead without checking the sender of that email and connected my metamask wallet. It takes less than 30 seconds to wipe out my entire wallet. I realized right after signing, but that was too late already. I revoked the connection but the wallet was drained already. It's not like I didn't know how these scams works. It happened because I was careless.
I have seen this kind of scam many times on social media and it's wise for us to be very careful when scrolling on social media. Their are many scams online and it's important we scrutinize every link to ensure that they are safe. There are lots of scam links everywhere and when one is not careful enough, you could end up with the wrong link that will make you lose fund drastically. There are so many things happening online especially on social media that support ads. There are some crypto
ads that are scam promoting fake projects especially those that claim to give you huge incentives for doing nothing.
Well it is true there are a lot of fake projects out there and people who are falling in to there traps are those that are going after shitcoin that is while I will never advise anyone to go after shitcoin because of the aftermath. In the issue of link it depends on your browser because there are browser that will warn that the site you are entering is not trusted or not secured for you. So if you want to continue despite the warning is now left for you to decide.
