Since we are involved with crypto, many of us use multiple wallets. Moreover, apart from blogging, we sometimes work on other sites and because of that, we often have to connect our wallets there. But sometimes it is found that those sites may be fake and they are scams. Many of us are often cheated by unsolicited phishing links due to working on different sites.

I am always careful about clicking on links especially when it is a link that requires me to connect my crypto wallet. Especially we should be very careful when we have to click on links from any site or unknown source as many people get scammed by connecting wallets from unwanted sites like this. Especially now many people are working on airdrop and therefore need to connect different types of wallets at different times. Many times we get airdrops links on Discord or links through Telegram and through them our wallets are hacked when we are connected to them. Sometimes these links look like genuine links but they are completely scams.

And that's why we get cheated the most because the sites seem real to us and that's why we attach the wallet. When someone does the Airdrop task and when it reaches the reward part of the claim, it asks us to authorize various blockchain networks to be able to claim XP or Airdrops points. If you're into airdrop hunting, you'll know what I mean.


Especially if you are using Tonkeeper wallet then sometimes you will find that you are getting good offers. Even there you will find links where huge amount of NFT gifts are given. But if you click on them, you will realize how much you are getting scammed. Sometimes clicking on these gift links suggest you spend some money to verify them. Which is total fraud.

So all these links should be avoided. Also sometimes you will get various links in the name of telegram or airdrop which are complete scams. Moreover, sometimes they may seem completely real to you, but in reality they are fake. So you must be careful of them.

I share a real experience of mine. Like a few days ago when I got some tokens from an airdrop. Which is Panda Token. And it says that they are only listed in the same specific exchange and that two $ton fees must be paid to get them. It even said that through a video that if I pay this certain amount of fee I will be given the token immediately. But I have not received my token till now despite paying this amount even messaged the support line they had but no reply even I mailed them. Later I realized that I was a victim of a scam. There are many such online based tokens which are a complete fraud trap. So we should be careful from all these phishing sites and scam coins.
