Ethereum user loses $514K in USDT to address poisoning two minutes after a test transfer
On 16 January 2026 a victim sent a 5,000 USDT test transfer and, two minutes later, 509,000 USDT to a lookalike Ethereum address planted by an address-poisoning scammer, a total loss of about $514,000. The intended address ended in D3E6F; the fake ended in f3e6F and differed only in the middle characters wallets usually hide. Cyvers flagged the theft.
