01
Understand the role of domain checks
Within imtoken guidance on Phishing & Scam Awareness, domain checks should not be treated as an isolated term. Its practical meaning depends on the selected network, the account address, the origin of the request and the final on-chain record. Place the concept in a real wallet workflow rather than memorising a definition. Its meaning becomes clearer when you relate it to the network, address, request details and the final on-chain result. For everyday use, the important skill is knowing when the information is complete enough to proceed, when a mismatch should stop the action, and which data can be checked publicly without exposing recovery secrets. Using that framework for domain checks helps distinguish a temporary interface status from a confirmed blockchain result and reduces mistakes caused by choosing the wrong network or trusting an unexpected request.
Work backward from the expected result
Phishing & Scam Awareness often combines several conditions at once. With domain checks, start by confirming the active account and intended network, then review the displayed counterparty, amount, fee, data or permission scope as relevant. If the request differs from what you intended, do not confirm it simply because the site looks familiar. If a transaction has already been broadcast, use its transaction hash and explorer data to understand progress instead of guessing from a loading screen. The same reasoning applies to fake support and fake airdrops: every step should be explainable, independently reviewable and free from promises that cannot be verified on-chain.
- Confirm that domain checks matches the intended network context
- Review the account, contract or state related to fake support
- Keep public identifiers such as transaction hashes for troubleshooting

How fake support affects real actions
Within imtoken guidance on Phishing & Scam Awareness, fake support should not be treated as an isolated term. Its practical meaning depends on the selected network, the account address, the origin of the request and the final on-chain record. During an actual action, compare the interface with on-chain context. Pay particular attention to the selected network, address format, transaction state and the contract or account requesting permission. For everyday use, the important skill is knowing when the information is complete enough to proceed, when a mismatch should stop the action, and which data can be checked publicly without exposing recovery secrets. Using that framework for fake support helps distinguish a temporary interface status from a confirmed blockchain result and reduces mistakes caused by choosing the wrong network or trusting an unexpected request.

- Review the account, contract or state related to fake airdrops
- Keep public identifiers such as transaction hashes for troubleshooting
03
What to review around fake airdrops
Within imtoken guidance on Phishing & Scam Awareness, fake airdrops should not be treated as an isolated term. Its practical meaning depends on the selected network, the account address, the origin of the request and the final on-chain record. When a status is unclear, avoid repeatedly submitting the same action. Check the transaction hash, block explorer data and the confirmation state on the intended network before deciding what to do next. For everyday use, the important skill is knowing when the information is complete enough to proceed, when a mismatch should stop the action, and which data can be checked publicly without exposing recovery secrets. Using that framework for fake airdrops helps distinguish a temporary interface status from a confirmed blockchain result and reduces mistakes caused by choosing the wrong network or trusting an unexpected request.

- Confirm that fake airdrops matches the intended network context
- Review the account, contract or state related to malicious links
- Keep public identifiers such as transaction hashes for troubleshooting
04
Common mistakes involving malicious links
Within imtoken guidance on Phishing & Scam Awareness, malicious links should not be treated as an isolated term. Its practical meaning depends on the selected network, the account address, the origin of the request and the final on-chain record. Treat every signature, approval and transfer as a separate decision. A service that was previously connected should not automatically be trusted for a new request with different permissions or transaction data. For everyday use, the important skill is knowing when the information is complete enough to proceed, when a mismatch should stop the action, and which data can be checked publicly without exposing recovery secrets. Using that framework for malicious links helps distinguish a temporary interface status from a confirmed blockchain result and reduces mistakes caused by choosing the wrong network or trusting an unexpected request.

- Confirm that malicious links matches the intended network context
- Review the account, contract or state related to remote access
- Keep public identifiers such as transaction hashes for troubleshooting
05
How to interpret remote access states
Within imtoken guidance on Phishing & Scam Awareness, remote access should not be treated as an isolated term. Its practical meaning depends on the selected network, the account address, the origin of the request and the final on-chain record. For troubleshooting, retain information that can be shared safely, such as a transaction hash, network name and approximate time. Never provide a seed phrase, private key or verification code as diagnostic information. For everyday use, the important skill is knowing when the information is complete enough to proceed, when a mismatch should stop the action, and which data can be checked publicly without exposing recovery secrets. Using that framework for remote access helps distinguish a temporary interface status from a confirmed blockchain result and reduces mistakes caused by choosing the wrong network or trusting an unexpected request.

06
Make unexpected signatures part of a routine
Within imtoken guidance on Phishing & Scam Awareness, unexpected signatures should not be treated as an isolated term. Its practical meaning depends on the selected network, the account address, the origin of the request and the final on-chain record. A consistent review order reduces mistakes: identify the counterparty or request first, confirm the network next, check the amount or permission scope, and only then sign or send. For everyday use, the important skill is knowing when the information is complete enough to proceed, when a mismatch should stop the action, and which data can be checked publicly without exposing recovery secrets. Using that framework for unexpected signatures helps distinguish a temporary interface status from a confirmed blockchain result and reduces mistakes caused by choosing the wrong network or trusting an unexpected request.

A practical safety reminder
Keep seed phrases and private keys under your own control; legitimate support should not ask for them. Before a transfer, verify the address, network and amount. Before signing or approving, review the origin, contract and permission scope. On-chain transactions usually cannot be reversed by a wallet alone, and third-party DApps and smart contracts can carry risk.
