I don't disagree... Highest risk from being in a hurry or being careless... But must happen often enough for it to be a known and named scam tactic.

Scammers "poison" your wallet history by sending tiny transactions (dusting) from an address that almost perfectly mimics a trusted recipient (same start/end chars). ​The Trap: You copy the FAKE address from your history list by mistake and send your funds to the scammer. ​ Safety Rule: NEVER copy from your recent transaction history. ALWAYS verify the full address, character-by-character, or use a saved Address Book.

I'm really sorry to hear that... It would definitely be demoralizing to lose everything and have to start from scratch... I've got a lot to learn myself.
