Recently, Litecoin has received many positive news, but hacker activity has also become more frequent. On January 10th, a large theft of up to $280 million shook the entire community, with just 2.05 million LTC being transferred.

Hackers' tactics have changed now. They no longer rely solely on technical methods but are playing psychological warfare. Especially after the Ledger user information leak, hackers hold a large amount of real addresses and emails, and begin to deliver targeted scam messages. Some people receive packages or emails that look completely official, but are actually phishing traps.

The key to protection is simple, but you must remember:

**First**: Never click on links in emails that ask you to reset your password. No matter how official they look, it's a scam.

**Second**: Do not use any unfamiliar hardware, even if it claims to be a brand new device sent from official channels. This is a common method hackers use to implant malicious code.

**Third**: Never input your seed phrase or other ultimate keys on any connected device—neither on computers nor on mobile phones. Only operate on offline hardware wallets.

Honestly, rather than chasing high profits, safeguarding your principal is the top priority. These protective measures may seem basic, but it’s often these details that determine the safety of your assets.
