Avoiding Scams

As you explore the decentralized frontier, it is important to be aware of common crypto scams. The tips below will help you stay safe as you explore new opportunities.

  1. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Before you dump your money bags 💰 into the latest fad, slow down and review. If an opportunity is legitimate, it will still be there five minutes from now. Take a deep breath, slow down, and review what you're being asked to do.

  1. Don't trust. Verify.
