đš Security tip: watch out for address poisoning
How the scam works:
1ïžâŁ 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).
2ïžâŁ That fake address now sits in your transaction history.
3ïžâŁ 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
âą Never copy a send address from your transaction history
âą Save trusted addresses in an address book or withdrawal whitelist
âą Check the FULL address, not just the start and the end
âą 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.
Have you ever seen a strange dust transfer like this in your wallet? đ
