Hi all, just a quick reminder. Turn on 2FA (2-Factor Authentication) for your NFT accounts. I just read someone's story that they clicked on a link in a Discord private message and that's all it took for thieves to ransack their account and steal everything within 2 minutes. Your account can be very safe if you practice good cyber security.
1) Never click a link in Discord unless you 100% know who it's from (I have used Discord sparingly and would not have thought about the risks of clicking a link)
2) Activate 2-factor authentication. Yes, it makes it a bit of a hassle to login and use the authentication app for a 6-digit key, but it will protect you.
3) Be careful with trade requests on AtomicHub. Apparently smarter people than me can see a trade request be sent, and they will 'spoof' the trade and offer you something like 1 WAX hoping that you will blindly click on the accept button because you had been messaging with someone and expected to receive a trade request. But you click on the fake one and the thief took your items for something negligible in trade.
Have fun colelcting. Be safe.
