Check URLs, site certificates, in case of DNS hacking, use bookmarks, MetaMask, trade only on trusted exchanges and securely store your keys.

Buy only to the legit exchanges that are being used by majority. If you will go for a peer to peer trade here in the forum, use an escrow. But there are local exchanges that might be convenient to you.

You can use localbitcoins as well which is also a good platform.

What does SCAM mean?
I think Bitcoin never scams all its users,
we can safely store bitcoin in a wallet
precisely the point of my suspicion is the related wallet that we use to store BTC

You can buy bitcoin on local exchange applications that available on your place. It is more safe that buying on actual person you do not know. You can handle your own security by that. Mostly people who invest on bitcoin become scammed is not because of the exchanger but because of the person they trusted to give bitcoin after paying an amount who run away with it.

Trust no stranger asking for money in exchange of bitcoins, never be greedy and invest without studying where or who would you deal with investing your bitcoins. The community of crypto currency is large and so you can ask for vouch to other users of bitcoin to know if the transaction you would have with someone is legit. These are few points you can use in order not to be scammed.

In my opinion if you have some doubts about getting involved in some kind of investment you dont need stress out yourself or just give up easily because theres a lot of way to avoid being scammed in investment like doing a lot of research and background check of the invested you like and probably you should check the feedback of those people who already known or have already involved in the project you wanted to invest so in the end you wont have any regrets by participating or getting involved on it and in the future you can avoid being scammed by some people who have a lot of bad interest using bitcoins. And last you should go into something who are legitimate and have a background of reliability.

In my opinion, to avoid getting caught by scammers before you decide to invest or buy bitcoin please exercise caution, don't be too hasty, research about the website, don't click an unknown email or potentially dangerous links, check the URL before you sign in and double check if the cryptocurrency exchange is legitimate.

Phishers often send fake emails but legitimately, which you need to be wary of. Do not follow any links in the message or enter any personal information they request. People are also being tricked by malicious websites that promise fast profits and business tips. Bitcoin transactions can not be undone, so if any currency leaves your account, you will not be able to refund it. Bookmark your wallet service site if needed. There are many reliable exchanges. If you do not mind sending me PM so I can share the ref-feral link with you if not feel free to join and wish you good investment. First of all you should acquire knowledge about the exchange and when you get the exchange right then you can invest as much as you can without cheating.

If you have been scammed because didn't know bitcoincash and bitcoin are different, then you must be new in cryptocurrency.
When peoples join crypto, they will need to at least learning about the coin they want to buy.
Otherwise, they maybe very easy to be scammed by other peoples who want to take advantage of it.

Your security is dependent in your own. No own is accountable with it just your self. To avoid investmeny scam, you should know how bitcoin works. How the operations being done. After it before investing do a background check and have some researches about it. Knowledge is the only key to avoid and prevent scams

Think in this way other than you purchase Bitcoin through an exchange every other way is to scam you.

With the increase in the value of Bitcoin, scams have increased significantly. Srcurity is our primarly responsibility, we need to take measure not to fall in the trap of scammers.
