(Optional)</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Is your computer free of viruses and malware? Are you using the latest security systems to prevent attacks like this one? Do you have an antivirus in real time and automatically updated on your system?</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>Use Malwarebytes or Kaspersky for example to add to your PC an extra security that will not hurt, I assure you, if you had this in your time has not been hacked. We also have a post in the forum dedicated to the best free antivirus of 2018.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Are you practicing common sense? (Very important)</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>Do not click on suspicious links in all your emails. Always double check the user names and where the emails come from. It is best to assume that everything is an attempt to hack. Seriously, even be careful what you're doing buy or visit any possibly compromised website like movies, adult movies or anime.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Where do you keep the keys to recover seeds for your wallet? Who knows where they are?</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>Do not keep your passwords and private keys just out there anywhere in your room. Close them somewhere safe. Do not tell people where they are. Assume all possibilities of what may happen in the environment in which you are storing it, that is, make sure it is a fireproof, water proof, etc.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Are you showing your earnings and portfolios to known people?</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>Think twice about who you teach it to and where you publish it. Your closest friends can be your biggest enemies. People are very bad and would sell their own mother for money, it is important to assume that.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>You travel a lot?</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>Do you stay in a hotel, hostel or motel? Do not be stupid: there are bad people in cryptocurrencies who are waiting for you to access the cafeteria wifi without computer protection and a VPN enabled.</p> <p><br></p> <center>https://steemitimages.com/DQmR5r6WM1qiXBHNFax3nfrK9mHoni9VXJiFGWjyoN9eG9Y/jaime%20william%20english%20steemit.png</center> <p><br></p> <p><center><a href="https://perumira.org/"><strong>Magazine PeruMira Digital </strong></a><strong>| <strong> </strong></a><a href="https://perumira.org/free-coins-free-airdrops-bounties-monedas-gratis-diarias/"><strong>Airdrops & Bounties Updated - Actualizados</strong></a></center></p> <p><center><a href="https://www.facebook.com/perumira/"><strong>Facebook </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/PeruMira"><strong>Twitter </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/perumira/"><strong>Instagram </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://www.pinterest.es/perumira/"><strong>Pinterest </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/+PerúMiraDigital"><strong>Google Plus</strong></a><strong> | </strong><a href="https://www.bloglovin.com/@perumira"><strong>Bloglovin </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://klout.com/#/PeruMira"><strong>Klout </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://www.tumblr.com/blog/perumiradigital"><strong>Tumblr </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/pmdperumira/"><strong>Flikr </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://refind.com/PeruMira?invite=4d9b1f8576"><strong>Refind</strong></a></center></p> <p><center><strong>Jaime William ===== >>> </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/jaimewilliamper"><strong>Twitter </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/jaimewilliamsteemit/"><strong>Instagram </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/106815151382286600363"><strong>Google Plus </strong></a><strong>| </strong><a href="https://refind.com/JaimeWilliamPER?invite=f14ff2cc15"><strong>Refind</strong></a></center></p> <p><br></p> </html>

that is something I would claim plagues the crypto world at this point, I've fallen short on that point too, the few times I was "scammed" it was basically trusting some people/party that had no reason to be trustworthy, not to mention the ego part of people being fine with stealing ... well :) it's been an experience for sure :) hopefully won't happen on a large scale, sadly it is and sadly lots of small scales constitute a larger scale :D

I would also add "Adding Two-Factor Authorization (2FA)" to all of your exchanges such as Poloniex, Kraken, Binance, etc. Make sure you print or copy your private keys for your 2FA code and store it in a safe, cold location.

I use 2FA Google even in my forum and magazine profiles. You have to keep the keys and QR well.
