Lost half a bitcoin today due to a virus (likely a chrome extension) that changed withdrawal address on paste.

Here it is in action.

Didn't double check the address in binance confirmation email, learned a very expensive lesson. Living up to my nickname.

Funds went to https://btc.com/1F71Vfi8VELYY7C5T6pMUYKo1cYyasXipi first, then to https://btc.com/3DNzQKCsPbNBwtJsT4b6b4sbJvyQNNsg7j

Stay safe.
