Today a friend of mine entered misspelled address and got phised - his coins were extracted and spent.
Since cryptos are anonymous (well not exactly but +/- yes) there are loads of scams and fake websites looking exactly the same as proper ones.
I suggest to bookmark exchanges or GUI wallets for ETH and never ever enter them from google or typing.
But there is also a cool chrome addon called Cryptonite - it checks popular crypto websites and tells if they are real or not.

It may not be very accurate as some new websites of crypto may not be judged correctly. Its better to bookmark a website you know is absolutely correct address and always open the bookmarked one.

The trick is they send you some complimentary message as a brand for a "thank you" gesture. You will be asked to click a link and voila,there and then they GOT you. You can read as many mails sent to you as possible but never open any untrusted links. This has cost many their hard earned funds. Be wise. Hackers aint resting so you should not.
