đ¨ Security tip: watch out for address poisoning
How the scam works:
1ď¸âŁ A scammer sends a tiny or zero-value transfer to your wallet from an address that looks almost like one you use (same first and last characters).
2ď¸âŁ That fake address now sits in your transaction history.
3ď¸âŁ Next time you copy an address from your history, you grab the fake one, and the funds are gone for good.
How to stay safe â
⢠Never copy a send address from your transaction history
⢠Save trusted addresses in an address book or withdrawal whitelist
⢠Check the FULL address, not just the start and the end
⢠For big transfers, send a small test amount first
On-chain transfers can't be reversed, so 10 extra seconds of checking is always worth it.
