I would like to add a tip here to avoid copy-paste errors and clipboard highjack scams. Instead of using CTRL+C and CTRL+V to copy paste the Bitcoin address, do this -

Select the address with mouse, then click-and-drag it to where you want to paste it.

This will act like a regular copy-paste, but no clipboard is involved.

Be careful with this tip. If you drag things from a text file, then (depending on the application) it'll remove^[1] it from the source document after pasting. It's pretty easy to then accidentally save the file (some time later) and lose whatever it was that you copied.

Obviously, it's not advisable to keep important stuff in random text files, and I would never do that, but, erm... I have a friend who does it all the time.

[1] You can prevent this from happening by making sure to hold down the CTRL key before dragging.
