It is just better we trust nobody on the Internet, and that is how we can avoid all these scammers to some level. Because no matter how smart a scammer is, it will be very hard for someone to easily detect them with some kind of tactic they bring up to scam people.So, the best thing is to just trust nobody on the Internet. Imagine someone who wants to learn a way to make more money, only to end up losing money to a scammer easily, without the scammer even using their own hands.

But one thing with some people is that, even after what has happened, if they see another offer claiming they will make money, they will follow it and will not care to still click or follow the person steps. But I don't know; maybe some people are not thinking that making this money is not that easy. If it is really as they are claiming, those people who may not even have time to come and teach others the way would definitely be busy making more and more money.For me, anyone I see online claiming to make some kind of amount of money in the crypto market, I hardly believe them because I know that making the kind of money they are claiming is not really easy.

Trusting strangers specially online always bring biggest regret because its give some peoples lesson but its never been easy to recover from this trauma one of my friend faced serious problems because he trust one person and he wiped out his all funds and then out of scene its give him huge lost and end of his sweet journey in good life sometime when I watched really feel upset because having this lost surely big lesson never trust at any cost.

Mostly online scams happen due to trust or lack of knowledge of the victim because he never knows what is going to happen to him, and he gives his sensitive information to an unknown person who is having just one cause to give him a loss and have all his information in his own control, while exchanging or having any business using an escrow or trustworthy platform is a must; without this, never do anything if you want to stay on good terms.

I don't believe the focus should be on the online vs in-person. You can receive unsafe code from someone you know personally, and a stranger online can offer you something that is safe. What's more helpful is to distinguish trust from giving access to funds: check what a program or contract does, test with another wallet, and, don't give an unknown app access to funds that you are not willing to lose. When it comes to crypto, it makes more sense to minimize the amount of trust that needs to be placed than to try to determine who is trustworthy.

Good point. The person who tells you about it or sends you something like that doesn't necessarily need to have bad intentions towards you. As you said, it can come from a friend, and they might think they are doing the right thing and helping you. In reality, they might be creating major difficulties both for themselves and the people they have shared the scheme with.

Because their mind isn't in the right place. They aren't thinking straight. Their sole focus is on the profit they believe they will be making. Whatever popups and warnings they see, they believe they are just necessary steps and confirmations to start earning that money.

That's actually a great point. It helps answer "why would they ignore a blind-signing warning". It's not technical. It's behavioural/psychological. They are expecting to be able to make a profit off of it. They're being lead to ignore warnings by the nature of the tutorial and the way they describe the process.

So when a warning does come up it's just another thing to ignore, click next and move on with the process. Also, you're right, it helps that they call it a "trading bot" and not just some random software. That primes people into thinking of profits before they're asked to import the wallet.

Compartmentalization is a great way to avoid such problems. Use one computer for your crypto and/or financials and don't use it for anything else. No gaming, no streaming, no everyday internet surfing, no work, and especially activities such as torrents, porn, cracked software, etc. Do that somewhere else and compartmentalize further if needed. A computer doesn't get infected by itself. The user does something to it. The malware or infection is the result of the user's activities. 

There is such a thing as a healthy level of paranoia. If you can keep your paranoia at that healthy level, you will be safe.

Psychology always plays an important role in these things. Scammers with a good sense of humor always stay ahead because they are well aware of victims reactions and how to handle things. In recent times things are getting worse for people who are not well aware of many aspects, which are helping scammers reach people's assets and private places. They are always having their tactics for doing enough damage. Victims greed are also done good work for accessing things because in few cases peoples try to have things which are encourage their greediness and they catch into trap this allow scammer to done his job and have all which he wants from victim controlling emotions and staying always on good helps to avoid these things but its also needed good knowledge also.

It's common because mostly now close friends or relatives are having interest, and they never feel guilty after doing tricks like these; even if they are having their own view of explanation, people who are facing losses feel they are guilty for why they follow them without doing their own search about this.

Few years back I also have same experience but its not related to online its in practical and I am still feeling pain after years of this lost because I was never been able to recover this and have my loses back but my friend never feel shame about his involvement because he was still trying to give his view he was correct and have done nothing now I never do anything like this and have my own way of work and search before having any engagement about anything in investment or trading related.

Many such groups operate out of India and other South Asian countries. There are great videos online of people hacking those scammers and destroying their operations. It's great to watch when they start to panic, seeing everything get destroyed.

You can always avoid social engineering scams. Phishing, for example, isn't hacking. People become victims of traps and unknowingly hand over account access or other sensitive data. It's not difficult to learn not to do that.

Although that is true for phishing, what I described in the OP is different. Here we have an example of a technique where victims destroy themselves, thinking they are creating a gold mine that will earn them a lot of money.
