There is currently a new scam called 'Address Poisoning'. Here's how it works: after you send a normal transaction, the scammer sends a $0 token txn, 'poisoning' the txn history. They use an address with the same first & last few characters as the real transaction you sent; in hopes you will not check the full address, and instead copy theirs in a future txn.
The suggested way to protect ourselves are by double-checking the full address, or by using the Address Book feature of you are on metamask. You can also have an ens domain which would make sure you will not be able to fall for this scam.
