Be careful when copying and pasting a cryptocurrency address. There are warnings about a cryptocurrency scam via "copy and paste". In this case the warning appeared on Reddit, the user "seraf1990" was the affected one, this person lost $ 350 that he sent from Binance to a Coinbase address. He copied the BTC address from Coinbase and pasted it into Binance. Realizing that the sent BTCs did not arrive, he proceeded to check and was able to see the difference in the address, so it may have been changed in some way.
seraf1990 explains that generally the addresses changed when this type of attack happens are very different, which helps to detect the anomaly. But in this case the first 4 digits were totally the same.
Generally I always check the first 4 digits and the last 4 digits.
Do you always check the digits of the destination address?
