3) Anybody calls you and says they are from your exchange and request for access/password,just hangup the call !

This is a very dangerous scam. It's common to receive emails from *exchanges* asking for personal details or asking the person to click a link to solve an issue or to claim a benefit.
Always think twice before clicking links you receive on email and always check the sender informations: there can be strange email terminations, or a letter out of place to trick the person.

Some of us have learned these things to experience. We could easily stay away from scammers if we don't trust people easily. Also, we must be keen and observant about people's intention around us. We should do some research before doing a certain step like choosing an exchange or a trading site. Being scammed is frustrating so we should protect our earnings.

OP, your title is a bit misleading. I rushed in here thinking I was going to read about the different types of scam only to get "Guides to avoiding different bitcoin scams"
Maybe you should consider changing the title to a more fitting one

There are so man bitcoin/cryptocurrency scams that one can't even exhaust all of them. The most recent ones are.

These scammer's strategies mostly target beginners for they aren't aware of the possibilities that might happen and they could believe in these strategies easily.
It's a good thing that you're sharing these things for awareness. We should really be aware all the time to get rid of these scammers.

The most common scam about bitcoin that you say is for 1/4/5 points, because it seems that it's often done by irresponsible people. and surprisingly there are still many who make this mistake and many believe it. and keeps repeating again, confusing too.
