quote: 🚨 GoPlus Security Alert: Bull run’s back, volume’s pumping — and so are the hackers & scammers. Multiple “wrong transfer” disasters in the last 24h alone.
1️⃣ Case-sensitivity fat-finger on Solana
A user manually typed a Solana address and mixed up uppercase & lowercase characters (TU → tu, k → K). Since Solana addresses are case-sensitive, ~430K $CATE went straight into an unowned blackhole. Gone forever.

Wrong: Bzj4tu2MdQ3gkkgm5t93ruzFEzLK7qRsuYJCq4jvMDeF
2️⃣ Classic address-poisoning attack
A victim copied a lookalike address from their own tx history (matching prefix & suffix) and lost ~$2M.

🛡️ GoPlus Reminder: On-chain transfers have no undo button. Build better habits or get rekt:
1. Never type addresses by hand. Never copy from tx history — that’s exactly how address poisoning works.
2. Verify character by character. Don’t just glance at the start & end — the middle is where the trap usually sits.
3. Turn on “hide zero-balance / dust transactions” in your wallet settings. This blocks dust-poisoning attempts cold.
4. Moving big bags? Send a tiny test first. Wait for confirmation, then send the rest. One extra step, massive extra safety. | I have just made the biggest mistake of my life
I sent 429710 cate (my life savings) to what i believed was my new wallet address on fomo
Being an idiot i typed it out very carefully or so i thought to my new sol address

Unfortunately for me i sent it to
Bzj4tu2MdQ3gkkgm5t93ruzFEzLK7qRsuYJCq4jvMDeF and not Bzj4TU2MdQ3gkkgm5t93ruzFEzLk7qRsuYJCq4jvMDeF
