Spotting Phishing and scams

Education
1

Phishing sites and scams have become part of the crypto experience. To spot phishing sites, you need to mind the links you click. Make sure the url is the one you want to click. for example, https://forum.aptoslabs.com is not the same with http://f0rum.aptosIabs.com. Everyone can fall a prey at any given time. Diligence is the key.
Scams on the other hand tries to trick you into losing your funds. Fake sales, pump and dump projects etc. It is always wise to do your own research whenever you are buying into any presale or private sale, irrespective of their promises. Look them up on X, are they what they say they are? Who are the devs, how is their contract? etc.
whatever happens, just be careful mate. Somethings when things look too good to be real, they often are.
