Title: Re: Be Careful! Confirmed malware theft from fork clients Post by: Kakmakr on February 08, 2018, 05:20:23 AM What I find remarkable is that this Malware evolved to create a Vanity address that looks very similar to the victims original address. I think the reason those funds has not moved yet, is because the creator of this Malware has to sort between 1000s of newly created addresses to grab those funds.
This might be a automated process, but I think these guys are manually doing this. The "Man in the middle" attack is more popular than usual, now that a exploit in Ledger was identified. Thank you for posting this, from now on I will take closer attention to the whole address. ^hmmmmmm^ Title: Re: Be Careful!

Quote my funds haven't been moved, they're just sitting there. how? are you sure you pasted the address which currently has your funds here correctly? I've synced half a dozen clients and light wallets before learning to use the claimer.py script. it is my guess but maybe it is a bug in that script that is making new and possibly invalid addresses like this.
