Here are some tips to help you stay safe from online scammers:
Be cautious of unsolicited emails or messages: Be wary of messages from people or companies you don't know, especially if they ask for personal information or request that you click on a link or download a file.
Keep your personal information private: Don't share sensitive information, such as your social security number, credit card information, or passwords, online unless it's necessary.
Use strong passwords: Create strong and unique passwords for all your online accounts, and never reuse them across multiple platforms.
Use two-factor authentication: Whenever possible, enable two-factor authentication on your online accounts to add an extra layer of security.
Check for HTTPS and SSL: Always make sure the website you're visiting uses HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) and has a valid SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate, which indicates that the site is secure and your data is encrypted.
Keep your software up to date: Regularly update your operating system, web browser, and other software to ensure you have the latest security patches and bug fixes.

The only way to be free from scammers is to be contented with your life. Don't be greedy or try to make quick money without much stress. It is greediness that have continue to expose people to be scammed.
The best thing we could do to stay away from fraudulent websites for example is to do prior research before entering the website and look for reviews that show proof that the site is legitimate, and to stay away from people with dubious intentions it is better to only trust people you already know or on the contrary who show proof that they are not scammers.
One of the best ways to achieve this is probably proper research. These days online scammers are even looking for more ways to scam people without then even knowing, hence most of them even looks more real than the next.
I have never been scammed online. I do not click on suspicious links. I change my passwords regularly. Before I join any online site, I often check their reviews, payment records and their website.

I think yes we need to keep our distance from these and whenever we feel that it's looking so easy to earn then we should doubt that
I do not click links. Scammers usually send links to emails and phone numbers to scam people, so I do not click those links at all costs.
