Watch Out For Scammers and Impersonators! .:. Ph's (Video) Shorts 🩳

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=ph1102/17941f42 If you try to live from crypto, you are living hard times at the moment... Markets look ugly, altcoins are demolished, and HIVE isn't an exception... Usually, when we go through this, something bigger has to happen, which breaks it even worse, but at least it marks the bottom... I don't want to paint the Devil on the wall, but it wouldn't be the first time to see some exchange become insolvent for engaging in shady business... As crypto is still kind of a Wild West, I bet there is a lot of manipulation in the background, and a lot of "paper Bitcoins" sold out there... That's why it's important to always keep your crypto in YOUR WALLETS for which YOU have YOUR KEYS! Created on Canva.com, using my photo as a background Speaking of keys, that's actually the main topic of my "experimental" (video) shorts I have created... Bad times aren't only for ordinary people like you and me; the scammers and hackers are also having a hard time... They are desperate to find new victims and to take your hard-earned money! Unfortunately, my friend @hallman was one of the victims just recently... He described what happened to him in this post, so check it out if you want to know the "practices" which nowadays scammers are using to get you! Also, it's not a bad thing to try to stick to a few simple "rules" regarding managing crypto and keep yourself safe on the Internet... Always VERIFY things BEFORE sending/signing any transaction. Protect your private keys and seed phrase, and DON'T SEND them over the Internet ever! No legitimate support agent will ask you to send them your keys! NEVER! If someone promises you “Guaranteed Profits”, 100%, it's a scam! There is nothing guaranteed in crypto, or in LIFE! Sometimes, you will hear that from your friends too, but they aren't aware of that either... Red flags in chats with impersonators: Urgency - We have to do this in 5-10 min... so hurry up Pressure to move the conversation on other chat/platform Need to do it through a "secure website", different from what you are using Strange terms... Sometimes, impersonators don't have enough knowledge about the platform or wallet Trying to confuse you, etc. Thank you for your time. --ph-- PS. I have begun experimenting with video creation lately... The plan is to share things here on 3Speak/HIVE, but also on YouTube in the hope for more eyes on HIVE... In YT videos, I'm planning to link them to my HIVE profile in the description of them and see what happens... I will try to keep the focus on crypto-related stuff, so if you're keen to see what I'm cooking, check my YouTube account. 👉 Vote for Liotes HIVE Witness HERE 👈 Don't forget to follow, reblog, and browse my Hivepage to stay connected with all the great stuff!
