๐Ÿ‘‰ Don't EVER use same passwords for your emails as well as other web accounts (crypto exchange accts, website accounts etc). Your passwords should be complex pile of balderdash. Have a password portfolio like lastpass to manage your passwords.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Activate 2FA on all your emails and web accounts.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Do not open any links or download anything that a friend or someone sent to you. Ask questions first.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Don't go downloading just about anything on websites.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Looking for airdrops and free bitcoins from strange links will get your PC and phone attacked. Many airdrops are laden with RAT that are out to get your private keys and login details. Thread carefully.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Do not share your laptop or pc with anybody, whether brother, sister or friend from adam. Password your PC and set it to sleep 10 sec after inactivity. Just have exclusive privacy to your pc and to a large extent, your phone. IMG_20180130_113100_789.jpg

Everyone who has been hacked have been guilty of breaching one of the above rules even if they don't wanna admit it.

Stay safe out there.
