No matter how secure the wallet technology becomes, human error remains the biggest vulnerability in the realm of crypto hacks.

I know that sometimes because of some unfortunate events, the best from us may fall to a crypto scam. A simple typo can cost you a lot, in a world of crypto.

And I really don't want to be rude, but some people are falling for scams too easy.

Blockchain doesn't make mistakes, human nature does.

-It doesn't matter how good you are with computers, internet, how much experience you have on it - why would you believe that someone that calls you, completely unkown to you, wants to help you to make money and get rich?

-Where is the logic behind clicking on emails that you received from, for example Metamask? When you are creating a metamask wallet, nobody asks for your email in the first place, right?

-Check that address twice, it is not that hard. Don't rush, take your time, compare the addresses.

Some quick google examples:

Investor lost more then $1.2M in crypto scam: "Someone approached me. I thought it was my old colleague from my previous job," CY said. "She gained my trust. I was vulnerable at the time with my dying father."

Emotions, pain and crypto + some anonymous caller Jessica = lost money.

Another victim that was approached by a stranger on the internet

Sorry, but I don't get it. How would you behave if a starnger approaches you in the street and tells you "gime some money and I will give you more" ?

And so on.

My point is, we are talking about this or that wallet being bad. And really, there are some unfortunate events that people are being victim of even if they did nothing wrong.

Bust most of the time its human error. Even if you have the best protection in the whole world, if you are not using your common sense.

The worst part about this is that things like this are happening without crypto.

Phishing scams, callers claiming that your Windows is infected and then scamming you after you give them access to your PC.

Does that mean that PC is the problem? Windows is the problem? Teamviewer or anydesk? Whos fault is that?

Why are US Congressmans not talking about "PC issues" because people are being scammed because they bought PCs...
