How to Minimize Your Risk of Being a Phishing Attack Victim.

1. Ideally, use your own browser bookmarks to visit your favorite cryptocurrency wallets & exchanges, rather than manually typing the URL. One typing mistake (when you're in a hurry or tired) could land you on a phishing page, and you could be wiped out.

2. Check for the green SSL lock on the browser location bar. Many phishing websites have valid SSL certs, but some do not (like this latest Trezor phishing attack).

3. Check the spelling of the domain name for accuracy. Many phishing websites use typosquatting or homograph attacks. Here's an example screenshot

Get into a habit of doing the above quick steps (bookmark, SSL lock, domain name) when visiting your favorite wallet & exchange websites, and it will minimize your risk of being a phishing attack victim.

Stay safe :)
