For scam: The most important reason for scam is
greed and ignorance. There are more ways to scam people. We should aware of it.
1.
Double spend transaction: This is a very tricky way to scam people. I want to share a recent topic about this scam

2.
Bounty scam: At the end of the Bounty campaign, Bounty Hunters will receive payment. But at the end of some campaigns, the admin/team demanded a fee from the Bounty Hunters for their shitcoin transaction and fled with the fee.
3.
Scam via email: Almost every day I get various tempting offers and airdrop via emails. Even today, i received two emails related to UNI airdrop from different person. These emails contain different types of malicious links. We have to avoid these.
4.
Scam via Telegram: Little Mouse has said this very nicely in the above post.
Some solution for hack:
1.
You tube: Different types of ads come while watching videos on YouTube. We need to be careful of these ads. These ads may contain malicious links.
2.
Website: We need to stop visiting unnecessary websites. No popup message can be clicked.
3.
Wallet: It is better to use hardware wallet to store crypto. If you use online wallet then you have to use very trusted wallet.
4. Many times we save our wallet seed, private key etc online (google drive). I think it's better to write the wallet seed, private key on a piece of paper.
5. We need to use 2FA as extra security when using wallet and exchange.
6. Some exchanges require a private key to log in, such as Forkdelta, IDEX. It is better not to log in too much time in all these exchanges.
7. Above all, we need to use a strong and secure password.
