This particular brainwallet concerns me, as the transactions are recent (March 2018), and for a large value (0.5 BTC): https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1GkGD48ucUKCwPkwRyH1bDLJTAdeHVn2xR

The funds were swept out instantly, which strongly suggests it was a theft by a bot watching that privkey. The passphrase is a song title, with minor mangling.
there were 4 transactions competing to sweep balance from 1GkGD48ucUKCwPkwRyH1bDLJTAdeHVn2xR
I found two of them were trying on two different addresses with same balance of 0.5 BTC,
receiver address 17WRjamo... and 1LdUHTEV... competing on utxo of 1GkGD48u... and 152DXcBq...
I think there is more to it than just some bots sweeping some addresses
did you also find private key for 152DXcBqGShpC7mBj4XZHQG9uGY9mUtZ8d ?
btw, that receiver address 1LdUHTEV... has balance of 50 BTC Shocked 450+ tx ins without a single tx out
