Have you ever lost money on phishing?

What is your experience?

I just lost $xxxx. I clicked a google sponsored link for uniswap and that's ALWAYS phishing site.

Then it asks me to connect and asks for unlimited approval of USDC.

So many things were on my mind.

  1. Why was I need to connect again? I am already connected to uniswap

  2. Why would it asks unlimited approval of USDC?

  3. This could be phishing and if I click confirm I will lost all of my money on that wallet

  4. I didn't want to check URL because I fear the URL will be similar and I may click confirm

  5. I was impatient because checking my limit orders are usually fast

  6. The only alternative I can think of is to repeat the whole thing again. Search for uniswap again. But I fear I will just be in this same situation again and again and again.

So within that 1 seconds I press confirm and lost all my money in my wallet. After that I realized that the URL isn't even uniswap.

That's very stupid. I didn't even plan to approve anything. I just want to check my limit order.

I reported a bunch of ads to google but the ads are still there. ALL sponsored sites for uniswap at google is phishing.

What's your experience?
