How can you identify an Ethereum scam by looking at the wallet address?

Use data providers that have indexed blockchain data. Bitquery for example, labels most of the fraudulent addresses. For example, the following address has a label "Upbit Hacker 1" which tells us that the address was one of the hackers that stole funds from Upbit Exchange.

How many Ethereum Addresses are there?

To get the count of addresses that are active right now, you need to use any indexed data provider that gives you Ethereum stats for example, through REST APIs or JSON-RPC.

At the time of writing, we use this graphQL query to find the number of addresses today to be 766346. You can run this query for any period of time to see the active addresses.

query MyQuery {
  ethereum(network: ethereum) {
    activeAddresses(date: {is: "2023-10-12"}) {
      count(uniq: address)
    }
  }
}

I would like to get all transactions given an address

Use this query which gets all transactions where the address is the sender. There is no limit on how much data you can get.

query ($network: EthereumNetwork!, $address: String!, $from: ISO8601DateTime, $till: ISO8601DateTime) {
  ethereum(network: $network) {
    transactions(
      options: {desc: "block.timestamp.time", limit: 10}
      date: {since: $from, till: $till}
      txSender: {is: $address}
    ) {
      block {
        timestamp {
          time(format: "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
        }
        height
      }
      success
      address: to {
        address
        annotation
      }
      gasValue
      gas_value_usd: gasValue(in: USD)
      gasCurrency {
        symbol
      }
      hash
    }
  }
}
