The best things to do in other to avoid been scammed is to make sure that you keep all your coins and tokens in safe wallet and only transfer your assets to the exchange when you are ready to trade don't keep your assets on exchange. And for more security always use 2fa.

I hate to say this, but for my 1 year in this crypto world, ive been hacked, I dont know how he get my credentials, but i think its my mistake cause i forgot to enabled the 2fa, I guess i just learned from my mistakes. But I really dont know how he get my credentials, my password was too complicated and long. Can anyone advice me whats best to avoid those scammers ?

i think the best term you should used is Hacker because scammer is very different from the hacker , scammer is defined someone who is asking for money while the hacker defined as someone who will gain your data without your authority .

The easiest way to get hacked is to use your password on different site multiple times, once one of these website is hacked then you are authomatically exposed. This is one of the reason not to use a single password for all resgistration one is doing online

Oh, there are so many tips that every person actually uses very rarely, I think that it's just that many people do not do what they really write about, but if they could do it, then of course it would be just wonderful.

If you don’t want to be scammed then first of all be aware about unknown and attractive projects. Study them from different sides. This is simple rule but often people ignore it. Don’t make that mistake.

the only way to avoid being scam is to protect your own things, you must secure the protection of your account. the only one who can do that is you, its not automatically activated, and its easy to do so, why dont give a little time to do it.

just think about security whenever you do something. use a hardware wallet. do not store keys on your computer. always question what more can i do to be secure.

DO NOT USE ONLINE SEED GENERATORS. Sorry but I had to put this one out there.

People got burnt with using the iotaseed.io website. Generate your own passwords if you can. Always be wary of anything that tries to make your life easier - sometimes this key generators are rigged.

the possibility of your PC has been infected with a virus or some kind of phishing that can get all your activities on your PC. Well, this is what you should try now. try to nourish the PC and install a firewall that can not be penetrated by phishing

Well, first you need to study the crypto currency well. secondly, do not invest your money in dubious, so to speak, companies!
Be careful and do not rush with purchases and investments!

First of all don't believe everyone. Check every information and don't share your personal details with anyone

The best way to avoid being scammed is to be careful and don't click on random links on the internet. As for investing, you need to do your own research and don't blindly follow the hype like Bitcoinnect. I think experiences also help a lot when it comes to crypto.

There are some simple steps, that would help you to avoid scammers. First of all, check the project that you are going to invest in. Secondly, never reply to someones DMs on Telegram and never take part in pumping groups. The last thing that you should do is to divestificate your funds.
