Title: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: ehmdjii on May 09, 2013, 01:33:51 PM just logged into my account since a long time and saw that 2 weeks ago my balance was sent to the address
rich5dnbBMtCG6pT8kxgeoFEDKBtoGzFu does anyone know this address? http://www.deviantsart.com/1akd6uf.jpg Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: tclo on May 09, 2013, 01:42:13 PM That is scary. Did you use a program like roboform to create your pw or you type it in manually? Just wondering if a keylogger could have gotten you. What was your password or something similar to it so we know how difficult is was to crack.
Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: ehmdjii on May 09, 2013, 01:47:18 PM password was a unique 14 character upper/lowercase/numbers combination.
btw, is there some kind of blockexplorer for ripple? Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: ehmdjii on May 09, 2013, 02:14:40 PM apparently the attacker is quite rich

Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: Come-from-Beyond on May 12, 2013, 08:12:28 PM Could OpenCoin do a chargeback? They rule Ripple, don't they?
Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: ehmdjii on May 13, 2013, 10:51:37 AM yeah i wonder that too.
so far i am looking for a way to contact them. the contact-information on the website is more about being contacted by them. Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: Milkshake on May 13, 2013, 10:58:50 AM Could OpenCoin do a chargeback? They rule Ripple, don't they? OpenCoin Inc do but it would be a PR disaster, they're only going to do it if they are personally affected really.Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: Milkshake on May 13, 2013, 10:59:44 AM also, it is obviously a vanity address. how can you generate vanity addresses for a close source coin? The server is closed source (which is why I won't touch it with a ten foot pole), but the client isn't. It's not hard to generate vanity ripple addresses, but pointless because ripple is nothing but a fad.Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: Trading on May 13, 2013, 11:03:25 AM Not much information, but unless it was the Op of this thread doing the report, the owner of this account has previous complains:
http://report.rippleunion.com/for/rich5dnbBMtCG6pT8kxgeoFEDKBtoGzFu It's possible to write to the author of the report and try to get more information about the scammer/hacker. Title: Re: ripple wallet was hacked Post by: smoothie on May 13, 2013, 11:12:24 AM With Ripple being a centralized system what do you expect?
The creators could hack your account if they wanted. It amazes me how many times people are willing to get scammed before they learn from other people's past mistakes.

It amazes me how many times people are willing to get scammed before they learn from other people's past mistakes. Why will they even hack account when they can easily remove all money from account without leaving any trace of transactions. I mean if they want they can disappear your money. Probably OP got infected by some stealer or something or they have some kind of vuln in their system. |
