A few years ago, when I only started using Bitcoin, I've lost a small amount when I sent bitcoins to a wrong address.
I think it's not lose big,this may be a small thing but a lesson for us all,to see the wallet again send,because a little mistake will be worse in the end,missing something though a small but worthwhile.you are still lucky people to lose a lot for playing gambling,ponzi games and scam mining sites.

I always check the first and last 5 characters of the address I'm supposed to send it to and compare it with the address I pasted. You too should get into a habit of double or even triple checking the receiving address. That way it will be very unlikely to send to the wrong address.

Well if you are loosing your coins while sending them to a wrong address, then I think you should stop using bitcoins as if you cannot take care of basic things that doesn't make any sense in using bitcoins.
