A profound lesson: granting authorization is like giving scammers the key to operate your assets. They don't act immediately; instead, they are very patient. When victims relax their guard and leave, they begin to move—sweeping away SOL, various tokens, NFTs, and more.
These wallet authorization traps are becoming increasingly covert. Many people unknowingly click on malicious contracts or forged authorization pages, thinking it's just a simple operation, unaware that they have already handed over control of their assets.
A reminder to everyone: think twice before every authorization. Check the contract address, verify the authenticity of the interaction partner, and don't let a moment of negligence ruin your entire wallet. The convenience and risks of Web3 often go hand in hand; security awareness is always the first line of defense.

Damn, that's why I always click revoke when authorizing... One slip and my wallet is gone.

Really, granting authorization is just like opening the door to let strangers into your home... A buddy I know lost over ten SOL and a bunch of NFTs because of this, and he's still regretting it.

Wow, this is why I get nervous when I authorize now, afraid that one slip-up will cause everything to be gone.

Wow, this is why I have to check the contract address three times every time I authorize... Truly, one slip-up becomes a lifelong regret.
