    Phishing is a common scam in the digital currency space. Scammers send emails pretending to be from legitimate exchanges or wallets, asking for login credentials or private keys. They often include links to fake websites. Always double-check the sender's address and avoid suspicious links. Another scam is advance fee fraud. Scammers promise high returns on investments in digital currencies and ask for upfront fees. Once the payment is made, they disappear with the funds. Email spoofing is also common. Scammers manipulate email headers to appear as trusted sources. Be skeptical of emails asking for sensitive information or funds.
