Greed sometimes ends with regrets. I have had the experience before where I advised a friend on a particular trade which we were on that faithful evening and at a particular trade point I collected my profit and I told him to do the same but he ignored my advice waiting for it to go up again and after a while till today he still, the price dropped like a tree falling down with full speed to our greatest surprise it was a total market crash. Till today he still regrets that event and he has learnt his lessons from that and it was a bitter experience for him as the funds he  invested  was for a particular purpose but he was trying to see how he could get some more money from the trade so he could use for some other activity as well. The incidence really taught him a lesson not to be greedy.

Although I think such discussion should not be in the form. However, I shared the story of one of my friends being cheated.

A friend of mine invested some of his savings in Bitcoin. But unfortunately today his personal wallet got hacked. Balance 00. I was telling my friend how that . My friend said he gets a message on Telegram and gets greedy and enters the link they provide and connects his wallet. After a while he came and saw that his balance was zero.
I have heard So many complains about how people got scammed on trust wallet or other wallets through a link that was sent to them and a friend of mine was a victim as well.
Greediness is never a good thing and it always leads us to regretting at the end. This is why it's necessary we avoid clicking or to follow any links that is sent to us via telegram or any platform if we have our wallets stored in our phones.

"Sin of Covetousness and Death in Sin"

Understand greed, which is an ultimate emotion to destroy the purity of the heart and slowly slowly forced the soul to a dead end.  Those who can't control his / her greed emotion in any term whether it's money, power, or any material is not a believer on the day of judgment. A greedy person is actually living in a misconception. No one needs a lot of money to live with a small amount you can live but for achieving the comfort zone a person gets obsessed by money and other things and this whole time a person forgets his destination.

End is death always and no one can escape... Quran says




For the rest of the OP I do agree in hasty and greedy maximum of the people get trapped.

"Sin of Covetousness and Death in Sin" Like my friend, none of you connect wallets by entering any bad links. No one will be deceived like my friend.
When clicking up random links on the internet whether you have just seen that one or been provided by someone or anything else talking about free money or easy way on getting rich.Greed would really be putting
you into a hard situation on which you would really be losing all of your funds.Most of the time it would really be giving out some access or permission on transactions made but most of  the time
is really that those privatekeys had been inputted or those phrases had been exposed which we do know that this is the primary thing needed for someone to have
access into your funds.So this would always falls down as a costly lesson learned.

Why friend and is that too greedy, does he really know the message from the telegram or is it just a random person so he believes in the link provided without checking first or is he really interested in the aspect that is being offered?

I think your friend doesn't understand about this deception, so they are so trusting and easily deceived.

Something is not right with this story. First, you mentioned that your friend had invested in Bitcoin, but later stated that he linked his wallet to a malicious website. However, from what I understand, Bitcoin wallets do not typically offer support for WEB3 or decentralized apps. So either your friend hasn't actually invested in Bitcoin or there is something missing in his story.
I'm also a little confused by this story, bitcoin was hacked just because it was connected to the site, did he use a trustwallet wallet? Or maybe the OP's friend just lost altcoins because there's no way bitcoin can be linked to web3 like you said.
It's a little confusing too.

Although the credibility of the story is in check, the message is clear still that greed is dangerous and can make you loose all your investment if you are not cautious. It is an attribute not to be accommodated unless it can be met with strong thinking to ensure that the drive that greed brings does not make you make a wrong decision. The greed that most people have is what makes them more prone to becoming victims to scammers who know how to always entice and lure these people.

In short, most likely your friend got phished by that link provided that it came from a random stranger on Telegram. Greed really will bring you nothing but will take everything from you. Your friend learned a lesson here, do we know how much we're talking about in here?
If it's quite big then certainly that's an expensive lesson for him to learn but I hope that it's not that much for the lesson that he has to learn that he should trust no one if it's coming from Telegram since it's a place for most scammers.

That being said, scammers are known to create fraudulent sites and apps that mimic legitimate ones in order to trick users into giving up their private keys or other sensitive information. So it is possible that your friend was tricked into giving up his private key by a fraudulent site. However, this is not something that would typically happen.

Your friend's wallet wasn't hacked, they gave up access to a 2nd party by linking their wallet or giving out their private keys.
A hack would be a breach or a compromise on the system, this is a silly mistake.

This is the reason why I caution that newbies should not invest until they have gotten enough fundamental information about the assets and how to secure themselves, without this, they would get quickly lose their funds.
