Had about $600 in Bovada and decided to withdraw to my Eth wallet. I copied my Ethereum address from Coinbase and emailed it to myself on my Iphone. In my web browser, I copy pasted the Eth address to Bovada and 15 minutes later it said complete. I didn't see it in my Eth wallet though (didnt thinking anything of it) and decided to go to bed. The next morning I still didnt see it and got worried. I checked the address I sent it to and it was a different Eth address. I panicked and asked myself how that was even possible. Turns out I have a malware on my laptop and when I copied my Eth address, it pastes as a completely different Eth address. Since the withdrawal was complete, im shit out of luck.
Let this be a lesson to all, ALWAYS double and triple check your crypto addresses when sending and receiving. I've done the deposit and withdrawl many times but was stupid and didnt bother to check the addresses this time. Paid $625 for a lesson in crytop. Going to take my laptop to a repair shop and fix it. If you guys have any words of encouragement for me I would greatly appreciate it
