Summary

It seems a week doesn't go by that we don't hear about someone in the crypto space losing their crypto or NFTs to scammers, hackers and other ne'er do wells.

Back in 2017 we talked about how Travis got hacked and almost lost his cryptos. Kevin Rose lost $1,000,000 in NFTs in a wallet draining attack just last month.

And now it's finally happened. I got phished.

It was an incredibly stupid mistake that could have and should have been avoided. But it's what happened subsequently that I find the most disturbing. Most of all, it's proof that it can happen to absolutely anyone.

Today we talk about how you can protect yourself through technology and hyper awareness. On our Joel doesn't meet Trey Anastasio but still gets phished. Episode number 670. Of the Bad Crypto podcast.
