Tips on how to guide your account and stay away from hackers

It is now rampant online, with people losing their accounts in one way or another. People get hacked easily and lose all their accounts. Some months ago, I saw some of my colleagues lose their hive account and everything they had worked for. According to the story, I was told that the board betrayed them and they lost all their accounts.

But then I see it as overtrust because even if someone brought you to the hive, you should not have kept your keys with them, and you should change your keys as much as you have your master password.
Also, choosing someone you trust to recover your account for you is so necessary, as no one knows what might happen tomorrow, and to be on the safe side, you need to be careful.
It's so painful to see people lose their accounts. Yesterday, or money.

I was on Discord yesterday when I realized Leofianance's channel got hacked. A link was sent to people so they could connect their wallets and get airdrops, which some people actually did. But fortunately, we all realized on time that it was an attack. This was what made most people save themselves; if not, we would have been saying another thing entirely.

Firstly, we need to accept the fact that anyone can be attacked by hackers, but to be on the safe side, we need to take some precautions because even your best friend can be hacked, and they might use him to attack you by clicking on the link he sent to you.
Here are a few steps to follow to avoid being attacked by hackers all the time:

Don't click on any link you don't know anything about; this is the easiest way to get attacked, as we have a lot of people who can just click on any link without even knowing what it's all about. We need to take precautions against that.

Secondly, use a strong password. Using a simple password can easily give hackers an opportunity to get into your account, so what do I mean by this? Stop creating a password like this (moremoney) but create a password like this (# Moremoney #32*) The first password is easier, while the second one is not easy to crack.
Also, choose a safe place. Your password to your phone can get lost or something can happen to it, but if you choose another place to save all your logins, they will be safe and you can easily access them.

Furthermore, be careful when you use WiFi, especially public WiFi, because hackers can easily access your device.
Lastly, also use a strong anti-virus on your device, as this will also prevent hackers from getting you easily.

We need to take precautions so that hackers won't take what we have worked for for several years. These are a few ways in which I know we can protect ourselves, and I know that we have a series of ways; it is now left to us to choose the better ways we prefer.
