Now more than ever there is a scam everywhere you look...what are the red flags and tell tale signs that the person you are dealing with is a scammer/fraudster.
You are totally right about hacking or vulnerable attacks. I have also seen many of my community members complaining (by sharing), how their wallets got hacked and they lost money plus there is one community member AnonBitcoiner who has shared his/her complete story, "
GETINTOPC BIGGEST SCAM SITE". These problems need great attention. Like only in 2022, almost
$1.4 billion dollars have been stolen. To circumvent these problems we have to think before doing any action.
Because hacking and falling prey to scammers are two different things. When a spammer or fraudster tries to phish you with outstanding offers, you should think first and search about such offers on the internet and should seek help from different platforms, and forums, and should try to search the main keywords of that offers on Google, or any search engine, this will get you everything on that keyword even the reviews of other peoples if there any.
If an attacker hacks into your device without your permission then it's a totally different scenario than spamming because you are not aiding in the hacking attempt instead hacker has broke into your device. Now, what you should have there is a dog at home when someone broke into it, or maybe an alarm system. The same alarm system can be implemented in your devices so that when a hacker tries to get some file without your knowledge, you get a suspicious activity notification from it. There are many software providing these services. such as canary tokens, etc. Actually, this technique is known as "honeypot" security.
What is it and
how we can make a honey pot? These are terms you should be familiar with.
