cryptoshuffler scans your clipboard for wallet addresses and replaces them with the attackers address when you paste the wallet address for payment. Sneaky sneaky.

Kaspersky security experts have researched the attackers wallets, they found more than $200,000 stolen to-date using CryptoShuffler!

First the mining malware now the cryptoshuffle trojan. I fear that as crypto gains popularity and many new users pour into the space we are only seeing the beginning of the virus onslaught.
