THE SAFETY CHECKLIST

A pause can make
all the difference.

Six checks before connecting a wallet, signing a request, or sending crypto.

01

Keep recovery words private.

Never send a seed phrase or private key to anyone offering help. A legitimate support conversation does not require them.

03

Be careful with unsolicited support.

Someone contacting you first may be impersonating a provider. Find support through the provider’s official website instead of using a link in their message.

04

Treat guaranteed returns as a warning.

Slow down when a pitch promises easy profits or pressures you to act immediately. Do not send more money to unlock a supposed reward.

05

Understand each wallet request.

Read what a request authorizes before approving it. Reject requests you cannot explain. A token approval can give an application permission to spend tokens.

06

Check transfer details carefully.

Verify the destination address, asset, and network using official instructions. A small test may reveal mistakes, but it does not prove a recipient or investment is trustworthy.

Still unsure? Stop here.

You can reject a request and take more time. This checklist helps you ask better questions; it cannot remove all risk.
