How to avoid losing money: life hacks for recognizing scam airdrops.

Airdrops are an opportunity to receive crypto for free, but many of them are scams. Here’s how to avoid falling into the trap:

1. Check official sources.

Always look for confirmation on the official website of the project or verified social media (Twitter, Discord, Telegram). If the airdrop is not mentioned there — it’s a red flag.

2. If they ask for your private key — it’s 100% a scam.

Never share your seed phrase or private keys with anyone.

3. Do not install unknown apps or extensions.

Fake airdrops often require you to download a “wallet” or an extension that steals your data.

4. Analyze the website.

Poor design, spelling mistakes, suspicious URL — these are danger signals. Scammers often do not invest in quality visual elements.

5. Check how much they ask for “participation.”

Real airdrops rarely require a fee or large deposits. If you are asked to send ETH/USDT to “activate” the airdrop — run away.

6. Research the project.

Check if the project has mentions in the media, audits, and an active community. If nobody has heard of it — don’t take the risk.

Remember: in crypto, the main thing is not to lose.
