🚨 Security Reminder | A recent operation almost caused me to lose 10 ETH! Here's the thing—— Just now, I was about to transfer money to another device using my Android backup machine. After copying and pasting the address, I habitually checked the first and last 6 digits and found that the address was incorrect. It was a certain address A that I had copied before (not mine); I thought I copied the wrong address, so I copied the correct address again. However, when I pasted it into the input box, the address A still appeared! After repeated operations like this several times, it always turns into address A no matter what I copy or paste. I realized that my clipboard may have failed, cleared the cache, and only returned to normal after restarting my phone. If you didn't carefully check earlier, these 10 ETH may have already been transferred to someone else's address. It's really hard to prevent in the cryptocurrency circle, especially with this phone clipboard. I just opened the background and found that there are still 31 things I copied and pasted in the clipboard, including the password I saved with the password manager before. Sometimes when you copy and paste in application A, but the contents of the clipboard are not reclaimed but cached, it may be read by the background when opening application B, which can easily become a disaster area for leaking mnemonics and replacing addresses. So whether it's Apple or Android, it's still necessary to do security management in daily life—— 📱 Android Select the "Information" application, you just need to click on the small clipboard on the keyboard, choose "All", and then click on the trash can. (Different models may vary) 🍎 apple You can refer to the image of @ 0xBeyondLee to create a shortcut command. After copying all the content, click the shortcut command to clear sensitive information. Also, it is not recommended to use third-party input methods. If used, it is recommended to adjust the access permissions in the settings. Safety is no small matter, you never know which copy and paste will happen, at the cost of several months' salary, or even your entire capital. So everyone must develop more safety habits and reduce their own risks!
