Phishing is a type of cryptocurrency scam that involves tricking victims into giving up their private keys or personal information. The attacker typically masquerades as a legitimate entity or person to gain the trust of the victim. Once the victim gets compromised, the attacker then uses their information to steal their crypto funds or NFTs.

Crypto and NFT collectors can prevent themselves from potential phishing attacks by practicing some of these quick tips, which include remaining cautious about suspicious emails, especially if they contain links from sources they don’t trust, using strong passwords, and avoiding reuse them across different accounts, avoiding giving out their personal information, such as their wallet address or private keys, to anyone and more.
