MetaMask® gives you power—but it’s your job to keep it protected. Every day, users fall victim to phishing links and fake login pages. Don’t be one of them. Learn how to log into MetaMask® safely and keep your assets under your control. 🛡️
The Official Log-In Process 🔐

- 🛑 Always lock your wallet after use
Logging into MetaMask® is fast—but the right precautions make a big difference.
The Biggest Mistake: Entering Your Secret Phrase on a Fake Site 😱
Never enter your Secret Recovery Phrase to log in. That’s only for recovery. If a site asks for your 12-word phrase as part of a log-in? It’s a scam. Period.
Only enter your password into the official browser extension or app.
Signs You’re Being Phished ⚠️
- Strange pop-ups
- MetaMask® asking for seed phrase on login
- Fake emails offering "security updates"
- Unverified sites using the MetaMask® logo
Always log in through your MetaMask® extension or mobile app—never through unknown websites.
