How to not lose your account and money?

[Jercyhora2]

I'll simply advise, use different emails, one for airdrops or any unidentified sites and another one for your information. Like :
Facebook,  twitter, reddit, instagram, and sites that holds your identity.

I would suggest to protect your funds by using a cold storage wallet; Ledger Nano S or use a paper wallet. If you don't want to use this kind of storage, maybe use a laptop for this. Take one who's never have been connected to the internet and never will be.
Also losing your money is because of yourself. Many people give theirs personal data nowadays to everybody for example for airdrops or bounty's. I recommend to use separate accounts for crypto and for your personal life. I use a other mail for crypto than for my private life.

Also i use a VPN service, which doesn't track my browser records. You have many free one's but i wouldn't recommend those. I gladly advise ExpressVPN. They are payable but offer very good service compared to other one's.

Also put some extensions in your browser to block advertising and scam sites. It helps to not get directed to phishing site's. Also every couple of days clear your cache and delete your cookies by deleting it in the browser or use a third party like CCleaner.

For passwords i know it's not easy to always have a other password on every site. Maybe using a password manager could be of great use here. It suggests you hard passwords and is encrypted. This service is not cheap, because good one's you need to pay a yearly subscription but i'm sure it's worth it. Or if you want to go old school, use just a sheet of paper and write on there.

For example with my ETH account, i never open it. I just check my balance through Etherscan. The chance you get phished here is very low and by using Blockfolio i can track my improvements.

Just be aware that many good hackers are active and stealing crypto is easier than stealing your credit card or your cash nowadays.

Always be alert and careful when going to login to your account. See its url, whether it is correct or not, because now a lot of phishing links. And always kept secret passwords are used, do not let other people know about it. ..

Many people failed to check the website before logining into, i think mostly newbies are facing these type of problems, because they don't clear idea which one is best and which one is bad. So i suggest to newbie start asking the community before doing to any thing because while googling you will find lot of fake websites.
