🚨 $12.4M. ONE MISTAKE — AND THE MONEY IS NEVER COMING BACK. 💀
Imagine:
For months, you’re sending ETH to the same “verified” address.
It’s routine.
You copy it from your history.
Press Send.
And after a few seconds you realize:
4,556 ETH (~$12.4M) has been sent to a scammer. 😱
How does it work?
The attacker creates a poison address — an address that looks almost identical to the real one: the first and last characters match.
Then they send your wallet lots of tiny transactions — so-called dust.
The fake address shows up in your history.
You automatically copy it instead of the real one.
That’s it.
💸 Millions are gone.
🛡️ How not to become the next victim:
❌ Don’t copy the recipient address from the transaction history.
✅ Verify the address in full, not just the first/last characters.
✅ Use saved addresses (whitelist/bookmarks).
✅ Get the address from an official source or via a QR code.
✅ Before sending a large amount, make a test transfer.
In crypto, sometimes one click is enough to lose your fortune.

Until it happens to you.
