Hala pwede palang mabago ang address ng isang coin pag nag copy paste? Dapat pala isave ko mga ginagamit kong address sa sticky notes or notepad para di nako pa copy copy sa mga exchange address.. buti napost mo to sir ngayon aware nako! Thanks!

This is what I did after the malware attack. But the question is, is my PC still safe for doing transactions or it is better to move to the nearby computer shops where the PCs aren't infected with malware?

Yes tama ka po OP. yun po ay tinatawag na trojan hijack kung saan everytime nag cocopy paste ka ng crypto address automatically binabago nung malware into hackers address. kaya po for own security yung computer na ginagamit natin for trading and transferring of funds dapat po solely dun lang ginagamit and hindi iniinstallan ng kung anu anung software. recently lang pati sa PDF pwede narin ipasok yung malware kaya pag inopen mo yung PDF hindi mo namamalayan infected na pala PC mo.

I want you to look carefully on your BTC deposit address. If you noticed that there is an inconsistency when you copy paste it in notepad or anywhere, it only means there is a problem in your PC or other devices you use to make transactions (most probably it's a malware).

Base on what the customer support from Binance said to me, here are ways to prevent this.

1. install anti-virus software to scan/kill Trojan and viruses as soon as possible;
2. disable plus-in/extensions in browser, uninstall unknown software in the computer;
3. Under extreme risk situation, shall format disk and reinstall OS in the computer;
4. It is useful to seek help from information security expert;

And for securing your trading account, (there's a lot of information so I'll just send a link).

Purpose: This is for all the people who are new when it comes to doing transactions. This is just one of the problems that I've encountered while depositing to a trading site. Other people might think that it is just normal to see that your BTC deposit address is having an inconsistency when being copied to another blank space.
 
P.S. If you have any problems regarding doing transactions, please share.
