Incident details:
Our guy tried to send funds from a wallet from Yoroi extension on chrome to his new Ledger which he paired it with the same Yoroi extension app. Apparently there was a malware running in the background of his PC (Windows 10) and it took over the copied address from the ledger receive tab and actually copied another completely different address to the clipboard.
Our guy lost 5342 ADA by sending to this address:
