Any possibility that this is a new variant of the clipboard virus that remembers the original address that it is replacing... Waits for the transaction to be created and if the value is below a certain value it fowards the payment to the original address to try and avoid detection?

I'm thinking this isn't likely, as the OP claims they did all this on an iPhone... And I am not aware of any current iOS clipboard malware.

Very strange that the Coinbase app would give a 1-type address... They were supposed to be switching to P2WPKH-P2SH SegWit addresses.

@OP, what happens if you got the Coinbase app and try to get a deposit address now? What sort of address does it generate? "1xxxx" or "3xxxx"? Huh

Looks like I am screwed. Damn can’t afford to be out this money!

But to answer your question it is spitting out addresses starting with 3, wish there was someway to pull the money off. I would gladly pay if someone knew what to do.

Sad
