An organization was defrauded of 50 million USDT.
Not a high-tech hacking attack
Not a trap for tech gurus
They specifically prey on "industry veterans" like us who are very skilled in on-chain operations.
You MUST read this to the end ⚠️⚠️⚠️
This is an operation we perform in our daily lives.
Here's a question ❓
When people make on-chain transfers (to address matching)
Most people usually only look at the first few digits of an address.
And the last few numbers.
Here is an example:

2️⃣0xbaf4b1aF7E3B560d937DA0458514552B6495F8b5
Can anyone tell the difference? 🤔
