It is already 2025, and if you still do not know these scams in the cryptocurrency world, the money in your wallet may not actually be yours. Most wallets are not regulated, characterized by their 'decentralized' nature.

In contrast, assets in exchanges are managed by the exchange, allowing for risk control at any time and restrictions on user withdrawals. Once the relevant authorities send an investigation letter, the exchange will quickly cooperate and provide user information.

On the surface, wallets seem to be safer than exchanges. However, incidents of wallet theft are rampant, with losses ranging from thousands to millions. Especially in recent years, scams targeting wallet users have been emerging continuously, making it hard to guard against them.

These scams share a common point: negligence on the part of users leads to fund theft. Although wallets are built on code and theoretically very secure, humans are prone to making mistakes.

Here are the ten most common scams leading to wallet theft:

1. Fake wallet software: Users download and recharge, only to find their funds cannot be withdrawn.

2. Strange link traps: Users click and inadvertently grant wallet permissions to strangers.

3. QR code traps: Users mistakenly scan a transfer code as an authorization code, leading to a loss of funds.

4. Token airdrop scams: Scammers send fake tokens to multiple wallet addresses; once users open them, their wallets are multi-signed.

5. Phishing address confusion: Scammers use addresses similar to friends’ addresses for small transfers, leading users to mistakenly transfer to the scammer's address.

6. Malicious app theft: Users download an app that requests access to their photo gallery, leading to the leak of screenshots containing their mnemonic phrases.

7. Social media simulation scams: Scammers simulate transactions on social media, causing users to mistakenly transfer funds to them.

8. Second-hand hardware wallet risks: Users purchase second-hand hardware wallets or hardware wallets that have been tampered with, leading to funds being unable to be withdrawn.

9. Gas fee bait scams: Scammers intentionally expose mnemonic phrases and wallet balances, tricking users into adding gas fees, then quickly transferring the funds away.

10. HD camera theft: Users in public places or during transactions have their wallet mnemonic phrases captured by HD cameras, resulting in stolen funds.

Wishing all you 'newbies' could cash out soon, may everything go smoothly, may you all make big money, and may you earn the numbers you desire in your hearts!
