We can distinguish from the domain name and most of all be observant when you access any site... because we know phishing sites are always there if people are a little impetuous then this can be fatal for them.

I always use extensions.

These tools are helpful but without them, if people are careful, they can self detect phishing sites easily. They can be scammed by phishing sites of Phantom wallet if these domain names are like phantomwallet, phantomwl, whatever with phantom in the domain name.

Here in this example, the phishing site has nothing closely to these domain names, so be scammed with this non sense domain name is pure carelessness from users.

Scam book has many points but Phishing scam is on the top of list.

Google support to list phishing sites on top of search result too.

Attention to details is a critical skill for everyone. Another thing is awareness of this phishing schemes. We gotta stay updated and create this awareness in our communities too. I am an advocate for everyone to take at least a basic cyber security courses regardless of whether you own crypto or not because these schemes are not exclusive to crypto only. I am passing this on to the small community I belong to.

The link for the fake phantom wallet extension:
Code:
https://phtnwall.com/ext/
Phishing site is a very old scam type, and I'd like to put the domain name of a phishing site in a code block and even consider to use [dot] rather than . to make it not clickable.

Code:
https://phtnwall[dot]com/ext/
Phishing sites are for scam and if you spread their links, you are helping these scammers.

From the link you can tell is different from the original but when you search phantom wallet extension this is part of the option you will see. And this is the original link: https://phantom.app/
People who were scammed with that stupid link, deserve to be scammed.

From Phantom to phtn, if they can be scammed like this, they're super stupid and very careless.

There have been other copyright wallets that are very identical, and the experience I had with what I described was astounding. And I tried to open a phantom wallet extension, and the interphase of the exchange was the same, but the method was different from the real one. And this is something we should be aware of, and it may not only apply to the Phantom Wallet, but to other wallets as well.



This is the first interphase that looks identical to the original one, thus it is typically difficult to determine which is the original one; but, as you continue to use it, you will be able to distinguish.





And when you click on create wallet you will be asked to import seed phrase this is one of the cheapest ways to scam people and if not that you want to create what if you have selected I already have a wallet then import your seed phrase the next thing to be seen is your wallet has been hacked and you wonder what must have happened and this is not only for phantom wallet but their people who have fallen victim to this and the moment your seed phrase is out then that is all for you.
