Q: What is an address-poisoning scam?
A: Address-poisoning scams occur when attackers send tiny “dust transfers” from wallet addresses that mimic legitimate ones. These appear in your transaction history, tricking users into copying a fraudulent address for future transfers. Even a single mistake can lead to significant losses.

Q: How do I protect myself?
A: Never copy addresses from your transaction history. Always obtain wallet addresses directly from the recipient or a saved contact list. Double-check the full string of characters, not just the first and last few digits, before sending funds.
