Title: Stolen bitcoins
Post by: Arder on May 09, 2013, 12:15:02 AM
Just been hacked
Hi everyone.

I'm here for telling you that stealing bitcoin isn't really hard.
With all those softwares about bitcoin, it has to happen.  I've downloaded a software without really pay attention about, and here the results...

The hacker took control of my computer, shutdown it, and then connect to my account on mtgox and btc-e. He just had to withdraw my btc, ltc, ftc, and all my currencies. In fact, he  had convert them into btc, and Buy btc with my real money. Even if i reacted fast, changing my password of my accounts, it was too late. I lost about 100 ltc,  100 nmc, 100 ftc, and a little less than 6 btc. You can imagine how many euros i lost...

However, btc-e support and mtgox support told me that they couldn't do anything, just giving me the transaction adress.
I lost a lot tonight.

You can easily imagine how i feel right now... Could you please be gentle ? Even just a bit. If you want to be, please send anything you want to, at my New btc adress...[no begging allowed]


Here are *some* transactions that happened tonight, it's the hacker adress... There is only two transactions... https://blockchain.info/address/1Mn4nHbTztSNoG8xJkZRqWMapb6fPKPWJ

Thanks in advance for your generosity...

I'm sorry someone stole some of your money. I just wish you didn't think that begging is appropriate.

You had 2FA enabled on your exchange accounts right?*

Yes, i have. But i had so few bitcoin on it, he didn't even took them.

No, but i recently bought a yubikey, i was waiting for it... Too late !



MtGox Support told me that the will collaborate with my local police, in order to retrieve the hacker. I don't have many hope for that, but... Who knows ?


Seriously, everyone should use 2FA and an encrypted wallet.
