#AirdropSafetyGuide : How not to fall for scammers?
Airdrop is a great way to receive free tokens, but behind the shiny wrapper often lurk threats. Here’s a brief guide on how to participate in airdrops safely:
1. Never enter your seed phrase or private key.
No legitimate project will ask for access to your wallet. Never.
2. Check official sources.
Only click on links from verified sites (for example, the official Twitter of the project, CoinMarketCap website, or Binance).
3. Use a separate wallet.
For participating in airdrops, it’s better to create a separate wallet to protect your main assets.
4. Beware of “gifts” for reposting or subscribing.
If you are promised huge amounts for simple actions — it’s most likely a scam.
5. Think twice before connecting your wallet to an unknown site.
Fraudulent dApps can steal your funds with just one connection.
6. Do not download files and extensions.
Airdrop is not a file, it’s a token. Files are often viruses.
7. Watch out for fees.
If you are asked to pay for “airdrop activation” — it’s a scam.
Conclusion: Free cheese exists, but only in a safe trap. Always verify the information.
