$50M Vanishes in a Copy-Paste Scam
A crypto user lost ~$49.9M USDT after a simple but devastating mistake.
1. They first tested a $50 transfer to their own wallet.
2. A scammer instantly generated a "poisoned" address mimicking the first & last characters.
3. The victim then copied the fake address from their transaction history and sent the fortune.
A brutal reminder: Always double check every character of a wallet address.
