Warning: Virus Can Automatically Change Wallet Address When You Copy!



Today, a sibling of mine just lost money due to a virus on their computer. Specifically, when they copied a wallet address, the virus would replace it with a different wallet that looked almost identical to theirs! If you normally only check the first and last characters, it would be very difficult to detect! The cause of the virus infection is still unknown, because my sibling said they were very careful and didn't download or install anything suspicious! At least the loss wasn't too big! Now they've completely reformatted their computer!

I myself also usually check the first and last characters when transferring funds! But I have one additional step, which is to send a test transaction with a small amount of money first! Although it takes a bit of time and costs a small fee, in exchange for safety, I think it's very worth it!

Making money is already difficult, keeping money is even harder! So everyone should be more careful, because hackers are becoming increasingly sophisticated!
