Whois is not that effective. You can pay to hide your identity. Who would like to have their personal
phone number & address listed on the internet?

Every other tools look legit

Whois is not effective in well-considered frauds, but most of the times behind scammers hiding not truly hackers but crackers and script kiddies. And you will see for example domain name registrant from Uganda, South Africa etc but the site is from "USA"...

I guess the best anti-scam tool is your common sense. We all know that there are a lot of scammers plowing the crypto verse that's why we should always be attentive and think before clicking anything we find in the web, in our emails.

So it we used our brains then I think we could stay away from those criminals and we can be safe all the time, just saying.

If we would rely only on common sense then we are fighting hackers "face to face". I mean oppose my skills versus hacker's skills and I am sure "bad guys" use lots of social and cyber-weapons( malicious software and hardware), so this is bare hands fight versus special forces fighter tempered in battles.

There is also an extension called Netcraft, Good for checking information about the website such how old the domain is and other registration info. It can also be used to fight phishing attacks

NoScript for Firefox is also good for blocking malicious scripts

Cryptonite by metacert used to be cool until they decided to fuck it up by making it a paid service but worry not... MetaMask is also a very good tool for fighting Phishing attacks.

You can get more info on a thread I made sometime back
- Must have web browser addons to keep you a step safer from phishing

You can't fully rely on a tool to keep you safe, there are tools out there that don't detect the newest hacks. The rule is simple if you don't want to get hacked make sure you know what you are downloading and installing on your PC.

It is good if you are so confident, but it is not a solution for everyone. And some experts could argue with you https://blog.threatpress.com/security-design-principles-owasp/
