Here are actions that can help you avoid most of the time:
- Don’t be greedy: Things too good to be true.
- Do an internet search: Always check to see if the address has been reported as one being used in a scam. Bitcoin Abuse is a popular website with a public database of bitcoin addresses used by hackers and criminals.
- Just do not send cryptocurrency to people you don’t trust.
