« on: Today at 02:08:32 PM »This is millions worth of assets, so why hurry to verify? I usually check the first, middle and last part of my address, and before sending, I scan both addresses for verification. I usually take 5 minutes, and when I'm 100% sure that's the time that I'm going to send the funds, the sender may not even be aware of that scam method, so he was comfortable sending it.
I am sure that at the time the owner of the wallet was then confident of what he did. He never thought that something like this can happen to him and he'll be a part of the victim statistic. One thing for sure is that he was identified as someone with millions of digital assets hence there was really an operation targeted to his end. This is one thing that one should be careful with when you already have millions on your wallet as you don't know that a sophisticated malware can be residing in your gadget and is just waiting for the right time to attack. I am sure there are now also advanced program that can thwart an address poisoning attempt so if you are already a digital millionaire better get one and still be safe always.
