Address poisoning in a nutshell:
Scammers create lookalike addresses that match the first and last few characters of an address you commonly use, then add them to your transaction history.
On-chain transfers cannot be reversed once confirmed, so assets sent to a fake address are usually impossible to recover.
Ignore small transfers from unfamiliar addresses, and never save the sender’s address as one you commonly use.
