Is it safe to rely on foreign income online?

[Anonymous]

So I live in a third world country and I've been doing some freelancing online. I work for some new game devs and i contribute making music soundtracks and getting paid for $150 — $300 per minute of the song currently. I've researched some articles saying the standard rate would be $100 - $1000 per minute depends in how indemand you are. That pay is way better than having a job here. But my concern is im having some online paranoia about hackers stealing my money. So I just want to know how safe it is.

It’s as safe as your bank and the device you use to access the bank account. Be sure that a password is needed to access the account for n your phone. Don’t keep programs that can transfer money out of your account available on your phone. In the US robbers have forced people to unliock their phone, then used Venmo or other software to clean out the victims account.
