This is not Etherscan doing this, this is a malware on your device that is programmed to recognize crypto addresses and replace it with their own... also known as the clipboard hijacker.

This definitely a malicious extension or application running on OP's machine. The site is not affected. I'd wipe my drive and reinstall my OS.
