💀 $12.4 MILLION GONE… All from a COPY-PASTE 🥶

Yes, you read that right. One unlucky user lost 4,556 ETH (~$12.4M) — and it wasn’t a hack, exploit, or smart contract bug. Just a single copy-paste mistake.

Here’s what really happened 👇

1️⃣ Wallet 0xd674 regularly sends ETH to Galaxy Digital, always using 0x6D90…2E48.

2️⃣ A sneaky attacker noticed the pattern. They made a fake address almost identical to the real one, and sent tiny “dust” transactions to pollute the history.

3️⃣ ~11 hours ago, disaster struck. The user copied an address from their transaction history… but grabbed the attacker’s:

0x6d90…E48 (not Galaxy’s)

4️⃣ One click. 4,556 ETH gone. No undo. No coming back. Game over.

🔑 Lesson:

Blockchain doesn’t care about intent — it only cares about addresses.

✅ Always double-check

✅ Never copy deposit addresses from history

✅ Seconds saved can cost millions

⚡ Pro Tip: Treat every address like gold. One tiny mistake = catastrophic loss.#CZAMAonBinanceSquare
