this is not a valid bitcoin address because of invalid checksum. you can not send bitcoin to this address.

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.

I didn't post the actual address, just an example of what the address changer does.

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^
