A Must-See Scam Prevention Checklist for Newcomers in the Crypto World (Recommended for Bookmarking)

In Web3, safety is always the first lesson.

Many people do not lose due to market conditions, but because of scams.

The following pitfalls are particularly easy for newcomers to fall into 👇 Digital One Agency+3Sumsub+3Ledger+3

1️⃣ Phishing Websites / Fake Apps

Links look exactly like the official website, just missing one or two letters

Once you connect your wallet and enter your mnemonic phrase, your assets are immediately drained

✅ Only click links from official channels (official website, official Twitter, official TG/Discord);

✅ Add frequently used websites to your browser favorites and access them from there.

2️⃣ Fake Customer Service / Fake “Account Unfreezing”

They actively add you as a friend, claiming to be platform staff

They ask you to “cooperate with operations”, “pay a deposit”, “provide a verification code/mnemonic phrase”

✅ Officials will not privately ask you for passwords and mnemonic phrases;

✅ Any request that requires you to transfer coins to “unblock/unfreeze” should be immediately blacklisted.

3️⃣ Fake Airdrops / Fake Whitelists

Randomly sending strange tokens to your wallet

Making you click a certain website to “claim airdrop” or “authorize transaction”

✅ Do not casually interact with tokens of unknown origin;

✅ If you don’t recognize the airdrop, treat it as if it does not exist.

4️⃣ Rug Pull

Teams pump up the price, create FOMO

After everyone rushes in, the project suddenly crashes the price and withdraws liquidity, causing the token to go to zero

✅ Try to avoid projects that rely solely on “stories and emotions”;

✅ Check if the contract locks liquidity, if liquidity is secured, and if the team is transparent.
