Th e best way is not to believe all you see in the web especially if they offer some investment that you will earn big. It's a no no and could lead to your loses. As much as possible when going into site that you are new. Always check if it's legit or not and always double check what you put there when you register to avoid getting hack.
I hate to say this, but for my 1 year in this crypto world, ive been hacked, I dont know how he get my credentials, but i think its my mistake cause i forgot to enabled the 2fa, I guess i just learned from my mistakes. But I really dont know how he get my credentials, my password was too complicated and long. Can anyone advice me whats best to avoid those scammers ?
I think they get your credentials if you put it on pushing site always remember don't put a password,username or emails in website that you don't know even others say it's a legit. And one more thing if you put password or emails don't put the same to your important account like digital wallets or like this bitcointalk always change it the password because scammer and hacker is smarter now a days. 
Being hacked is a very common thing in our days, since the courses and methods of building websites are known everywhere, and are their flaws and weaknesses. However, you can avoid the most of these threats by securing your accounts and avoiding opening any links, and also not opening them on other computers.
Sounds like your account on an exchange got hacked. It would be better if you do your further research on how its security works and enabling 2FA really is a great help for your account. Your password must contain special characters, upper and lower case letters. Do not save your password on your device and do not leave your funds to an exchange. Save the legit website as bookmark to avoid phishing sites.
The best thing to do is avoid unusual sites and dont click any file message that a stranger person send to you.You must use 2fa or cellphone number codes . Always erase the links or cache of the website you use when you log in into computer shops. Avoid airdrop too many scammers are out there , always protect your pc with anti virus. And dont tell the world how wealthy you are because many scammers will have a motive to hack you or scam you so always be careful.
The best thing you can do to avoid getting scammed is.. tantararan !!! "educate yourself"
that's it, It's so easy to distinguish scams from real ones when you know what to look for. Educate yourself in a sense of researching or thinking what separates scams from real ones, for ex: scams doesn't have websites, or many of them doesn't have team on their website. Something like that. And never ever click something on email or on social media that links to mew or any wallets out there.

It's hard to say. Normally if your two passwords are safe, your asset should remain safe. It's unlikely to get scammed unless you make some mistakes. Being cautious is the only solution I think. Hard luck mate.

I think you have been injected like a phishing that can get all your data. yes, this is your own negligence factor. you should enable any security that narrows theft in the future. keep your PC healthy and free from invuses or anything that involves hacking. install internet security and antivirus
You can reduce the risks of fraud by following the precautionary measures, such as a good password, check the site on which you enter your passwords, do not trust your computer with all the information about you.

Don't use the same password for primary email and accounts on a different platform. Always check the website if it has SSL certificates and the domain name for a possible phishing attempt. SSL encrypts data being received and sent. And of course, enable 2FA. I like exchanges and wallet providers that put extra security when withdrawing funds from the account.
Always check on the website you are logging in to while logging in to a web wallet because there are so many phishing site that was made by scammers. Avoid them
THIs is a very interesting topic which really requires much time to get attended to. As a matter of fact, the so called shackles can hack into someone’s account through so many ways not even a single means. One of the most popular means they use is they first hack into someone’s email because, mostly email usually consist of vital information of the owner. Stay away from clicking on any suspicious link sent to your email. Thanks

Always double check you are on right website when login to eWallet. Make sure you have a good antivirus, use a good browser (Chrome/Firefox) to access important websites. Better use a separate browser for financial activities.

Most likely, you used somewhere somewhere your similar data somewhere else, and these data were known to scammers.Try using several e-mails and different passwords, just set up 2fa authentication
If you have such a strong and complicated password, then maybe he got it through a malware or keylogger. Maybe you clicked a website with a malware and it bypassed your antivirus? The best thing to do is to be vigilant. Do not click on random websites. And use antivirus. Just one antivirus, because if you are running to many antivirus at once, it won't be twice as effective.
You can also do some research to avoid getting scammed/phished. One thing, you should not join in airdrops/campaigns that you think is too good to be true. You may end up being scammed and your efforts and time wasted.
Last thing, be careful when having a transaction, and always double check your wallet address.

Hopefully i will not be a victim of scams. I know a friend who was so disappointed because his wallet was hacked and all his earnings are taken away. I guess everything in an internet is hackable this is the disadvantages. We have to be careful. Maybe you can create a multiple wallet and take care of your passwords.
