IOTA Seed Guide, Tips, General Protection self.Iota

So after seeing a sudden rise in users having IOTA Funds stolen, I have decide to create a simple general guide to making sure users are not using seed generators from online websites that look, feel and act legitimate when in fact they are not.
Most importantly and first of all:
If you have used a online seed generator, I strongly advise you to withdraw and move you funds to a safe secure place and do not use an online seed generator.
If you think you have or have used a online seed generator and need help please head over to https://discordapp.com/channels/397872799483428865/397872799483428867 and devs will try their best to assist you.

Further Help & Advice:
Please keep you Personal computer up to date.
Keep your Anti Malware up to date and scan regularly.
Make sure your browser search page has not been hijacked.
Only use the Official IOTA Seed Generator.
Please only download IOTA Wallet Software from the Official IOTA Github
Avoid third party websites that recommend IOTA Seed Generators and also avoid YOUTUBE videos which may promote unofficial IOTA Seed Generators.
If you come across suspected fraudulent websites, please report using the Googles Report a Phishing Page : https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en
Please read the Official IOTA Documentation
Please do NOT use online seed generators - you risk losing all your IOTAS!!!
Please do NOT use or click on any online seed generators in your search engine that start with a green [Ad] image in front of the address link. These are unofficial and WILL/CAN steal your IOTA's.
Notes:
I will add numerous links and build this thread up ASAP to help as much as i can to protect investors assets from fraud.
By all means if anyone has any unofficial websites that should be in the above list, post and i will add as i go.
Note: As advised by mods/devs of the IOTA Discord Channel, I have removed the list of fake online websites as this may promote. Its better to say outright DO NOT USE ONLINE SEED GENERATORS. Please report/avoid these sites and spread the word to raise awareness.
