Be aware of certain malware that changes an address after copying and pasting.
NEVER assume that Copy then Paste will do what you expect. ALWAYS verify that the pasted address is equal to the one you copied. Don't only verify first few characters.. verify first and final few characters at least.. let's say 4-5
When sending an address over email or whatsapp, it's good trick to send a separated message right after with the last 5 characters so the receiver can confirm the address was not altered. Eventually you can even send a printscreen
Be paranoid with that..
