There is a growing market for our country today as we see am, a market for scrap items, discarded items way no Dey work well or at all but, them fit recycle am. Na better thing shah but then, e get watin we no Dey often give attention to and that na how some of our details like phone number and email address Dey come under certain persons hands way be say, we go start to Dey receive bulk sms and annoying spam mails.

Back then when I be undergraduate Dey pursue my degree program, one thing way we Dey do unconsciously be say, we Dey go run registration with those internet guys, giving them our login details like email and password if them require am. So in case them wan send email verification link, them fit get access to do all they need do. What we fail to note is that, we don give them access to our mail box finish. Na like that them go either sell off the phone numbers and/or email details and just like that, our devices no go rest and fit come under hack.

How this one take concern us and crypto matter:


Una remember this thread Never save your seed phrase digitally way talk about how person loose access to files way Dey on en spoilt phone via say the phone spoil?
That still na the case whenever you go any of these repair stores or Internet cafe. Some of the hard truth from that thread be say, these data Dey recoverable under certain conditions. Make I quote one response way support that claim;


So, when you go cafe to use their services, be sure say you no Dey give them access point by:
# Accessing their WiFi anyhow because e Dey free
# Plugging in your device to any port via say e Dey available
# Giving access to your emails especially when e Dey linked with your exchange and any other site of similar importance
(At most, give them email and receive the link on your own device then, you forward for them).

When e come to the repair side:
# No go Dey sell your device because e no gree come up or via say, you feel say e don spoil beyond repair
# No go Dey sell your device via say, you feel say you don wipe am clean with factory reset
# Many Iphone users and Android like to swap for upgrade, this too no be very good idea
# Another thing be say, even when these devices Dey moderately damage, some of these guys Dey want make we leave am with them, give them password to access and check watin them want when e come up and just like that, we never can tell watin them go access when we leave am with them.

So, before you plug in and give that access point to your device/email or before you decide to discard that device and the component within, try to understand the risk of loosing something important and what best means go suit to better safeguard that which Dey important to you.

This brings me to ask,
What’s the best way to discard some of these devices way hold potential treats to our wallets, exchange and privacy concerned documents.

Note: Your device spoil no mean say, all the components within am don spoil, make you no go loose something important to petty cash and fantasy
