I noticed your browser has a number of extensions. Have you, by any chances recently downloaded any crypto-related or some shady ones?

These kind of things usually hijack your copy and paste contents.

None of them are crypto-related unfortunatelly Sad
Whether crypto-related or not the thing is one of your installed browser extensions or one of your installed applications has malware with clipboard hijacker and you should get rid of that. Good thing that you already reformat your device, but the sad thing is thee funds cannot be recovered.

This should serve as a lesson to you and to anyone here that double or triple check the receiving address before you click the send button because there's no turning back once done. It will only take several seconds to check the address, and that could save lives if those seconds of time were used.
