Here is how to identify a fake site in 10 seconds


Next time you connect to a DeFi site look at the URL bar
See that little lock icon? Click it
It shows you the SSL certificate, basically who owns the website
If the certificate was issued yesterday and the protocol has been live for 2 years
You're on a fake site
Real protocols have certificates that are months or years old
Phishing sites create new certificates every few days because they keep getting taken down
One click on the lock icon could save you from connecting your wallet to a clone site
