OKLink Tips
In June, the proportion of scams and phishing incidents decreased, but we must remain vigilant. OKLink reminds everyone not to disclose your private keys or mnemonic phrases to anyone, and to maintain a skeptical attitude towards projects promising abnormally high returns. Before investing, be sure to conduct thorough research on the project and the team. Do not overlook any click, such as messages in the community, a link in a text message, or a private message link impersonating official customer service; these may hide irreversible traps.
Utilize tools like OKLink to query information about currencies and projects, and conduct thorough research. With data as the foundation, one can remain calm and build a defense line for their on-chain security.
