Use when: is it safe to send to this Base address? Checks this Base recipient before a transfer: lookalike poisoning against the sender's recent counterparties when from is set, dust-only spam history, free GoPlus scam/drainer flags where that API covers the chain, whether a contract is the token itself or shows no code path for it, and a fresh empty address. Verdict safe, caution or danger. Heuristics, not proof.
