**Description:**
Very easy to fall prey to online scammers
**Purpose:**
More safeguards in browser extension. First time I have ever gone to this site, I didn’t even know it existed. I thought pancakeswapfinance dot com (don’t go there) was legit. Looks like pancakeswap dot finance too. I connected my wallet, and it was trying to switch to another network. (First mistake) it was talking about fees(2nd mistake). I didn’t realize what was happening. It would be REALLY NICE if there was an ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SEND ${token} TO ${address}? This would have saved me. Thanks.
