# Avoiding Scams

{% hint style="danger" %}
SwapRoyale will never ask you for your login code or your private key.
{% endhint %}

Always be smart and catious while protect yourself from phishing and malicious actors.

### Verify official channels

Always ensure you are interacting with official SwapRoyale accounts. We will never DM you first asking for login or financial information.

### Verify before you download the iOS app

Check the [official link](/general-information/downloading-the-app.md) the docs page to assure you have access to the real app. Assume any other apps claiming to be SwapRoyale are a scam.

### Never share your private key

Your private key is for your eyes only. If anyone asks for it, they are trying to steal your funds.
