Wow! Tried it with the other private key[0] and the same thing happened. Upon some searching it looks like the recipient belongs to a Russian named amaclin on the Bitcoin forum[1] who has a script running to empty published private keys as soon as a transaction hits the network.

Help me please to understand the following transactions: https://blockchain.info/address/1HcBw7XNKm6NoVJ4s5sSZPL9JGeB... (look from bottom to top) Send 0.0001 to 1HcBw7XNKm6NoVJ4s5sSZPL9JGeB8a9STj , then spend change to 1HcBw7XNKm6NoVJ4s5sSZPL9JGeB8a9STj, then spend change to 1HcBw7XNKm6NoVJ4s5sSZPL9JGeB8a9STj... etc 9 times. And the last transaction is sending 9 utxos to 1Q76cQw9Rmw4TathPdYdR34GXSGKZKnLQy - the address of private key which was published earlier on page https://www.npmjs.org/package/simplebtc

wtf?
