Airdrop Safety Guide: Protect Yourself Step-by-Step
1. Always Verify the Official Source
Only trust links from:
Project's verified website
Official Twitter/X, Discord, or Telegram
Avoid clicking links shared randomly by unknown accounts.
Tip: Bookmark official sites yourself to avoid phishing links.

2. Use a "Burner Wallet" for Airdrops
Create a new wallet just for interacting with airdrops.
Keep your main holdings in a separate, secure wallet.
If something suspicious happens, your main funds stay safe.

3. Never Share Private Keys or Seed Phrases
Legitimate airdrops NEVER ask for your seed phrase or private key.
If someone asks for it, it's 100% a scam — ignore and block.

4. Be Cautious with Approvals
Limit wallet permissions:
Only allow view access unless absolutely necessary.
Be very careful with "Approve spending" — attackers can drain your wallet if you approve malicious contracts.
Use tools like Revoke.cash to check and remove risky permissions.

5. Watch Out for Fake "Airdrop Claim" Emails
Scammers send fake emails saying "You won an airdrop!" — don't click links inside emails.
Always verify independently via the project's real channels.
