The curious ones should just stop scanning all of the QR codes that they see. Grin

So it's not only me right? There are others that just like scanning QR codes just to see what's behind it. Grin

That has been one thing I liked doing in the past, don't know how I managed to stop doing it, but I still get attracted (maybe "fascinated" is the word) by QR codes.

Yup, I know people that have been telling that they like doing these especially those products that has them. While with such products it can be genuine and safe because they've got physical entities. But you'll never know here this curiosity or practice will bring you. Much better to just stop doing so since it's not mandatory at all.

I still prefer to send and receive Bitcoins through giving the address than giving and asking for an address QR code.

I was leaning towards scanning codes when I found out (thanks to this forum) that there are malicious software that can change the address you copied to send Bitcoin to and make it look very similar. Somehow I also found out about the risk of QR codes so I decided to stick to the address but take more time to verify the address.

IMO, if you're going to scan QRs and you want to send it to someone. The best thing to do this is to do it face to face, when you can actually see that the QR code generate came from the actual wallet of the receiver.
