#AirdropSafetyGuide
Here’s a concise **Airdrop Safety Guide** to help you avoid scams and protect your assets:
### **1. Verify the Source**
- Only participate in airdrops from **official websites** or verified social media accounts of reputable projects.
- Double-check URLs to avoid phishing sites (e.g., `trustwallet.com` vs. `trust-wallet.net`).
### **2. Never Share Private Keys or Seed Phrases**
- Legitimate airdrops **never** ask for your private key, seed phrase, or wallet password.
- Use a **separate wallet** for airdrops to minimize risk.
### **3. Beware of Fake Airdrops**
- If an airdrop seems too good to be true (e.g., "Send 0.1 ETH to receive 5 ETH"), it’s likely a scam.
- Avoid clicking on unsolicited links in emails/DMs.
### **4. Check Smart Contracts (Advanced)**
- Use tools like **Etherscan** or **BscScan** to review airdrop contract codes for malicious functions.
- Revoke unnecessary token approvals using [revoke.cash](https://revoke.cash).
### **5. Use a Burner Wallet**
- Consider using a new wallet with minimal funds for airdrop participation.
### **6. Research the Project**
- Check if the project has a **real use case**, active team, and community.
- Look for audits (e.g., CertiK, SlowMist) if tokens are involved.
### **7. Avoid Pay-to-Claim Scams**
- Legit airdrops are **free**. If you’re asked to send crypto first, it’s a scam.
### **8. Enable 2FA & Security Measures**
- Use **2FA** on exchanges and wallets.
- Keep software updated.
