Be ware of this wsteth address on zksync Era

First of all, I don't think it's a scam, but it's also not the correct address for wsteth. I think there must be some technical issue here.

So few days ago I try to bridge some wsteth from mainnet to zksync Era with the official bridge.

In the second transaction, it says the address of wsteth is 0xcafb42a2654c20cb3739f04243e925aa47302bec, but the wsteth address accepted on AAVE or uniswap is 0x703b52F2b28fEbcB60E1372858AF5b18849FE867

Of course I panic and think I finally got scammed. I can still bridge it back to mainnet with the official bridge to mainnet (but unofficial bridge doesn't have this token!). Luckily it's the normal mainnet wsteth again, so I didn't lose any fund besides the gas fee. But the bridging takes 12+ hours, not to mention how much it worries me that I may lose all that fund.

I than follow this doc on Lido to bridge and it success : https://help.lido.fi/en/articles/8687902-bridging-to-zksync. It still use the official bridge under the hood, but the frontend is a different one, I guess they call the contract differently

Guess I should raise this issue to the official bridge, but not sure how. So beware folks.
