There will always be scams in the crypto world, it is just impossible to go without a single day without anyone getting hacked or scammed, there is at least one person that gets hacked or scammed every single day, sometimes big amounts sometimes small amounts. The total estimate is in billions of dollars, every year over a billion dollars is stolen or hacked in the crypto world.
However what we should be focusing on is the fact that fiat is much much much bigger than that, like over 100x bigger, which means getting scammed is not something specific to crypto, it is something that is regarding money, ever since humanity started there are people who is getting scammed. I have seen literally antic age tablets about getting scammed. So we should not be worried about these type of things, they are temporary things that can be solved as long as we are careful enough about it.

is there a way to enter his wallet and make transactions without even having the back up phrase?
There is no way to access the wallet without the phrase or private key. Usually, there is a notification about it there, a warning to keep the phrase or private key as the only way to access it. Hackers can access the wallet after they got the phrase or private key from the wallet owner. But the problem is, hackers can get the phrase or private key from various ways. So, we must always remember to save the phrase or private key in a secure place. Make sure hackers cannot find a way to access the place. And if some unsolicited messages pop up, better ignore it especially if you know your keys are secure. Hackers will always find a way how to penetrate a system especially if they see the vulnerability of the gadget. However, some hackers know how to trick users giving false claims that they got your private keys but they haven't. That's when you will make wrong move that they can get in in your system. So don't fall for false claims if you know that your system is really secure.
As long as it's saved on his phone, he can keep using it even without the seeds. But what kind of person you are if you're ignoring the fact that seeds/passphrase are very important as if you don't hold it, you'll lose your funds if you've reformat your phone and can no longer remember the exact words that shall be used to retrieve your wallet if you want to use it onto another device.

It is possible to use a wallet without back up phrase if you stay on one computer. But if you want to connect to your wallet from another device you need your back up phrase . Actually hackers sometimes steal assets from different online wallets, so it is better to keep your money in hardware cryptocurrency wallets, like ledger.
if that was your close friend and he said it ,
won't you not believe him ? you should and you should approach and help him troubleshoot his wallet but if it's a random stranger online says it and followed by links well that is suspicious and you should not believe on it .
you don't compare your intelligence to others because you could be smart and you can detect a scam but others are not good at crypto .

I've had my wallet hacked because it was hit by a phishing site, one type of phishing site is a fake metamask that asks for pharse or dex sites that have to connect the wallet, to prevent that we have to unrekt the wallet at https://app.unrekt. net/
we must have knowledge about crypto so that our wallet is not hacked

actually no one can hack your wallet without you doing something that give a permission to do so by clicking phishing links, leaking out your private keys or seed phrase or sign a transaction that gives higher permission. so anyone could be hacked depending on what the person does.

I think its possible, if the hacker have access to the phone then he can do whatever he want.
I dont think theres another possible way to have access on the wallet.
That's another thing, if the device was stolen or loss and the one who holds it knows about
crypto. expect that those assets inside your wallet will travel to another destination, they'll
suck it out from your device. Other than that, your seed will always a protection to your investment.

There are certain situation where someone's wallet got hacked and they do not even know how it happen. There are some websites also that giving your personal information is dangerous because they can use it in some transactions that are scams. You should keep your phrase safe and its very important for you so that you only can access your wallet. 
First of all it is not possible to create a wallet without storing the private keys since many wallets doesn't support the copy past of private keys, the user needs to manually enters the private keys for that he need to memorize the private keys or seeds then have to re-enter to create a wallet successfully.
Literally, it is not possible to access the wallet without the private keys but there is a way to access the funds without entering into their wallet via clipboard malware by using this the hacker can change the actual destination address into the hacker's address and receive the funds into their wallets.
I think it's possible if the victim phone/dekstop was hacked and the hacker will monitoring or controlling their device then make an transaction from there beside that Clipboard malware was also dangerous, i still remember around 2018 when it change automatically change to the hacker address if they detect BTC or ETH Address, We just need to be more careful and don't install any suspicous apps or click the link.

No one can use it unless you share your wallet spare keys and required key keys with anyone. Apart from this, it must have access to the devices you are logged in to and can use your wallets if you are logged in on these devices. Finally, your wallets can be stolen and emptied in case of any virus infiltration into your devices or if you give the necessary permissions to malicious sites or share your information. Unless you do these, no one can get hold of your account information.
You can take these precautions by protecting them meticulously and not sharing them with anyone. You can keep your accounts safe by using a secure antivirus program on both your computer and your phone.

Trust wallet can't be hacked because the security system is very strong and real secured, the only way a hacker or scammer can break through someone's wallet is when there have access to the wallet keys of that person, so it's either the person must have misplaced or share his wallet keys that's why he thinks that his wallet was hacked. So I will totally disagree if he says his wallet was hacked, he should be corrected and know trust wallet can't be hacked directly.
In fact, the answer is simple - only having a private key, you can make a transaction from a wallet, whose private key you know. Accordingly, you can send a transaction from a certain wallet if you either have a private key from it, or you guessed it. The second, according to the theory of probability, is very hard to believe. This means that there is only one option - to take possession in some way, the private key from the wallet. There are no other options !
Private key and back phrase is the only way hacker can get into your wallet, If you are careless about these sensitve infomation of your wallet, you will have only yourself to blame! How can someone open a wallet where you will keep your hard earn money into and be lazy and lacadasical about storing your private key or back phrase securely? It beat me that people take these things less serious!

I think the probability is very low, low enough to be ignored. If someone isn't keeping his phrase，most likely, he won't be able to access the wallet address again，in other words, he lost the tokens in this wallet forever.

You have to put 12 phases of words manually in the Trust wallet. To put 12 phases words, you must remember words or screenshot or copy to clipboard. You can't open without taking 12 phases of words. Although you can delete it instantly, what will happen if you lose your phone anyhow? You are also safe by writing it somewhere else. Jump to:
