Those are some great tips given on the site, but many of those are very obvious or known to us all. The best way to avoid getting phished is to google site before manually entering the site through url bar. You will highly likely get the real site from googles search engine or at least some information if that site is a scam. Secondly, make sure if you copy paste a link, make sure you are not a victim of clipboard malware. These virus usually end up changing what you have copied.

It is a good practice to always check the website addresses you visit. Phishing attacks always happen with similar written fake domain names.

Thievery is really very disappointing and it causes distress to the crypto victims a lot. There is a trick that can help you with it and that is just turn off the SMS and email authentication that is sent for account recovery

this is very interesting, we have to use it if the MyShield platform is ready to use. especially this year hacking became the main factor that made the crypto market destroyed and experienced a long correction.

some of my friends are victims of hacking due to pishing. Scam websites and unclear websites always offer attractive benefits.

Phishing means stealing your valuable personal data like username, password and even credit card information before you know it using various fake websites, emails etc. So, you have to be very careful while giving your personal information in any website to deal cryptocurrency. You must check the authenticity of the website, and always try to use trusted website to prevent phishing and losing your valuable cryptocurrency.

Increased popularity of cryptocurrency made new investers invest into the market. Some scammers also offers unrealistic offers from some unknown links. Don’t follow them,beware of them.otherwise you may loose everything.

Yes, i am using Myshield Trust Stamp and apart from Myshield i am also using Nod32 anitphishing application and Nortan internet service pack by which the websites which has no trust or which has no trusted certificates are gets blocked in my pc and laptop and i think this is the best way to deal with hackers who are trying to steal our Information and private keys.

A good guide, so far I have always been cautious in accessing websites etc., because we know that in the internet world all bad things are likely to happen quickly, regardless of how hackers cheating users, then always pay attention to websites that we usually visit, especially on the link, because phishing victims are always not careful and not careful in entering or accessing a website or link they visit.

Phishing is a term that is used in internet world which means stealing anyone's private information using any bait, just like regular fishing. In phishing the hackers use fake websites which look exactly like the original websites, spam emails etc. They trick the users and get personal information like password, bank info etc. If you are not aware enough, you might lose your valuable cryptocurrency due to phishing. So, it is a must to always check the website link whether it is real or not. It would be best to always use trusted websites to buy or sell cryptocurrencies for the safety.

yup phishing means fishing (provoking victims to enter data on fake platforms). People who are easily provoked by phishing are people who are relatively new to the internet and some have long but they don't know about phishing.
The way I deal with this kind of attack is very easy that is remembering each original domain, and not easily provoked by incoming spam emails

If you are careful even without that type of service, you'll know if the website is a phishing site.

You need to be aware of the websites interface, SSL certificate and spelling as well.
