#AirdropSafetyGuide **#AirdropSafetyGuide: How to Claim Crypto Airdrops Without Getting Scammed** 🚨**

Crypto airdrops can be a great way to earn free tokens, but they’re also a prime target for scams. Follow these **essential safety tips** to protect your wallet and avoid losing funds:

### **1️⃣ Verify the Source**

- Only trust airdrops from **official project websites** or verified social media (check blue ticks).

- Avoid random links in DMs—scammers impersonate real projects.

### **2️⃣ Never Share Private Keys**

- **Legit airdrops will NEVER ask for your seed phrase or private key.**

- Use a **separate wallet** for airdrops to minimize risk.

### **3️⃣ Watch for Fake Gas Fees**

- Some scams trick you into paying “gas fees” to claim tokens—only interact with **known smart contracts**.

### **4️⃣ Research the Project**

- Check if the token has real utility or is just a **pump-and-dump scheme**.

- Look for audits (e.g., CertiK) and community trust.

### **5️⃣ Use a Burner Wallet**

- For high-risk claims, use a new wallet with **no mainnet funds** to prevent drainer attacks.
