Thank you so much,

Anytime.

I will try my possible best to make sure I secured my device because I know it's very hard on me to get another device and if this could be the case I will give myself a target to get a new smartphone then the old device would be mainly for 2fa only.

Now that you're aware of it, you can do it and you have to set your goal in order for you to have another smartphone. If you can't avail it for now, you have to be careful with your device and make it sure that no one will steal it from you if you're doing most of your transactions there.
Even it's not a new one but if it's a secondhand, also check it out and much better to do some reformatting on it  but as always advice, to have no headaches with these, brand new is the better choice.

Having one thing is like having nothing, if you really want to beat phishing attacks and scams online you have to always have two devices, if you have a smartphone get an extra one and make sure you use one for everything you are doing online and the second one for everything crypto-related things, that means there will be limited browsing on that phone.

If you also have a PC, I advise you to learn how to run two OS on the PC, it is possible to do this, you can run Linux OS and Windows OS only on the PC, you just have to choose between the two that you want to use at a particular time.

You can use the Linux OS to store your Bitcoin wallet and stuff and use the normal Windows OS for browsing and airdrops.

Simple methods are.

Don't read any unwanted emails.

Use dummy email for any registration you made to avoid receiving spam emails on your main email.

Always use dummy wallet on any platform you register when they ask you to provide so that you can avoid any background checking by hackers and became a target on their attacks.

Always ask the community on anything you don't understand because it can save your money and time since you provably get a good answer from true people in this community.

This is what we should remember and for sure we can avoid those attempt made by crazy criminals.
