Just a reminder, DO NOT DOWNLOAD anything from someone you don't know!
The only exception is if you have an extra computer that doesn't have any hot wallets, personal info or financial details saved.
Social engineering and data harvesting malware are rampant in the crypto ecosystem.

Now that the Base app is public it is VERY important that everyone is careful of scammers. If you think Twitter or Farcaster have rampant scams then you haven't seen anything yet.
- DO NOT download any software that someone you don't know asks you to download. If they want to video conference then you should provide the platform/link for the meeting, not them.
- DO NOT send anyone you don't know crypto or fiat and DO NOT put crypto or fiat into an investment site at the suggestion of someone you do not know.
- DO report scammers and spammers and warn others of any possible suspicious schemes going around.
- Mini apps are permissionless and while we have seen a few scam mini apps they have been minor so far. At some point scammers will utilize a mini app that causes some serious issues.

Stay safe out there.
Just now received a call from "Amazon", saying that I was buying an iPhone. Checked my account and there wasn't anything there.
It's scary how scams are propagating.
The scammer was asking me to check my phone for a 6 digit message. When she asked me to confirm my number, she couldn't even finish her sentence and hung up. Weird.
