Illustration · verify actual product details

What to check

01

Know what each credential does

A private key typically authorizes an account; a recovery phrase may restore a set of keys. The exact design depends on the wallet.

02

Reject credential requests

A website asking for your full private key or phrase to “verify” or “unlock” a wallet is a warning sign.

03

Reduce exposure

Avoid cloud clipboards, screen sharing and untrusted browser extensions when handling sensitive details.
