This sounds really scary, but I guess that where is the money, there are also malversations 

Anyhow, you always need to be careful...

Guys I've heard that it's better to use an apple computer than other computers such as laptops and the operating system Windows XP, I've heard that an apple is a more secure system for using. It's true?

  yeah winXP is so old you can't even GPU mine from it. win7 or 8.1 still work good, but effort is needed in those systems to remove M$ spyware recently introduced as updates, Win10 so useless... so yep Mac or Linux is the best choice, i'd highly reccomend Linuxmint for a beginner  Smiley  (you can install it to dual-boot on your windows machine, just be careful not to erase windows...)
                                                                                                                      https://linuxmint.com
I thought so, thanks for writing your opinion on this issue. I'm thinking of buying an apple to store all the crypto currency, and I'll use other computers to install wallets from other small projects, since this is less risky.

Cybercriminals are now targetting Macs too. I would store mine on an iPhone but if you lose your phone you are screwed. Best storage option is still hardware wallets.

Just use a chromebook for online activity.  No virii possible, if you don't use extensions: no malware.  Safest OS around...Can't install wallets though.

I read a lot and asked people about this issue. And many people say that Lunix is the best for our activities. But again, I myself use Windows 7. If you set it up normally, then everything will be fine, there is always a way out, you just have to think well)

Thanks for the tips. Security is a big issue here since lots of us are using hot wallet to trade on sometimes exotic platforms...

For me, unfortunately, storing my tokens on the phone is not an option, I very often break it and lose it, it's dangerous for me. I was thinking of buying a removable purse for crypto currency, but it's insanely inconvenient for me personally.

These hackers are getting incredibly smart
install a good antivirus so that your work is not disturbed by it. I also recommend you to keep your wallet offline and store your wallet in liquidity.

The forum is increasingly writing that private messages come from new registered accounts with some kind of link, and if you click on the link, they can steal your account. So be careful guys, do not go to unknown links

   This MALWARE issue has always been a menace and a major threat to online usage. Its weird to think that some people work this hard to be a nuisance to others. My recommendations are to a good antivirus with internet securities and follow some useful principles when surfing the net.

Recently, in my private messages on the forum, there are a lot of messages from beginners with all sorts of links, I already do not know what to think, blocking all at once does not always work. I need to somehow secure my account

How can we identify the malware infection?
 Is there any direction of attack?
can we identify them by the virus guard?
