This scammer pretending to be Greenpeace
Yes, believable, from all the payment methods available, Greenpeace would choose the most fucking inefficient one, that wastes 700 kWh for a single transaction, that's 100 households!

You should censor the scam bitcoin address when you screenshot things like this.
Why? So people won't send something to an address known to be a scam?
Yes.
Not only can people be pretty dumb sometimes, once the screenshot is on the Internet, who knows where it might get reposted, potentially without context.
I dont know. I agree with your point, but I think there's more benefits to keeping it intact. Maybe a middle ground is to mark up the photo with 'SCAM' 'DO NOT USE' etc, but leave the address intact. It's a phishing scam, so the address is the only info anyone has to potentially track them down. Maybe the address was used somewhere else, and there it can be tied to a person. The top comment here is someone already creeping on the address, which confirms:
-
people do do this legwork in the crypto world, there's probably exchange admins and the like punching the address into their own databases and just not informing us because they didn't find anything.
-
Noone has been dumb enough to send to that address yet, even before it was getting called out as a scam
If it's censored noone can do even a cursory glance into it
