  Phishing attempts can also come in the form of fake mobile apps. Always download apps from official app stores and read reviews before installing. Be cautious of apps that request excessive permissions or ask for sensitive information. Another sign to watch out for is unsolicited phone calls or text messages claiming to be from a cryptocurrency exchange or wallet provider. Legitimate companies will not contact you out of the blue and ask for personal information or login credentials. If you receive any suspicious communication, report it to the official support channels of the cryptocurrency platform or exchange. They can verify the legitimacy of the communication and provide guidance on how to protect your account. Remember, it's better to be safe than sorry. Take the necessary precautions to protect your cryptocurrency assets from phishing attempts.
