can any one suggest me , how can i file a complaint against etherdelta??

The link is not fake and it's the real one.
Seems that you are the first person who has experienced such problem.

Share TxHash. It might be helpful to find out what has happened.

maybe youre visit phising site, fake site etherdelta
etherdelta very trusted, iam use etherdelta without problem

edit problem solved you known if you visit phising site
is good you edit title thread

Such scam cases have been happened many times but i am sure this happens mostly with newbies who are not aware of original websites.
Some users get hacked by following links received in email even they know official links but still they get scammed.
You should be cautious not to click any links sent over emails, type the url manually in address bar and double check page url before you give away sensitive data

Why did you use myetherwallet while you were online mate? those links you have provided are identical, both are linking to MEW, none of them link

To any fake phishing site. even if you were scammed by etherdelta, you imported your private key, they didn't put a gun on your head to force you.

Since it is not etherdelta that stole your coins, maybe you can consider changing the title to the actual site that stole your coins. There are so many phishing sites nowadays and if you are not careful then most likely your coins will be stolen. Always bookmark the sites you use and if you received e-mails from sites then do not click immediately the link especially if there are words like "another user is trying to access your account", "we are updating our wallet so you need to change your password". It's unfortunate that your coins are stolen. Next time you would be careful in accessing those sites. Thanks for the heads-up.

Best tool to avoid phishing websites is MetaMask browser extension. If you are on such page extension alerts with a red flag.
Link if needed https://metamask.io/ (https://metamask.io/)

I'm sorry for your loss but by just looking at the link you provided I can conclude that it is a phishing link. You've been faked out by that MEW phishing link. We are warned by the real myetherwallet.com on their website at the top saying

im sorry for your lost budy but its looks like youve been victimized of phisingg website  i better to be careful next time and always check the url before entering your privatekey.

On my first read up on this situation im confused that etherdelta becomes scam or do scam someone knowing that this is a decentralized exchange which means they dont have the control of your myetherwallet and so on when i read up about the real mistake was on inputting the keys and address on a phishing site which is the cause of such loss. It would normally shows etherdelta on the transaction since most erc20 tokens are being traded on there and hacker did already exchange them once they transfer. Sorry for your loss man thats quiet a big amount.

If the link is from etherdelta you can send a message to their contact email address if they have if your sure that it is from etherdelta. But if not, there must be some other fishing site were it is the main reason why you got scammed.

not defend etherdelta, but i am etherdelta user and i always import my private key into erherdelta to trade. my assets also remain there and I do not move, but still safe and intact. I am sure you entered the wrong site and you are exposed to phishing. indeed the site look the same persisi, but the site address is different, sometimes only different one letter and this can deceive the user.

I am thinking that you must have make mistakes some ware as etherdelta do not scam people. Etherdalta is a trusted open token exchange platforms and I am hearing what happened to you for the first time. Just like others exchangers etherdelta has its limitations but scaming traders is what I doubt. However, why not try and contact the developers in other to know what has happened to your coins.

This is a strange news for me as till now I have  used it for many purposes but I have not faced any issue from this site. My friends are also trading on there safely. But do not know that why you faced the issue like that. I think there will be any fault occurred from you like you may clicked on any phishing site or you may share your private keys to any other person.

Never ever import your private keys unless you are 100% sure you're not using a fake site, with valid etc. etc. With so many scam sites, phishing sites and spam bots flooding everything and everyone, you can't afford NOT to be paranoid. I doubt etherdelta would ever want to steal your money, so something else must have happened. Share your tx ID so someone here can at least try and track. Maybe you made a mistake after all.

Also, just read what happened with one of the "devs" of BTG. Turned scammer and stole wallets. Just be wary and don't trust anyone is the advice I can give you.

$65,000.00 worth of what? Cant you practice money management. How do you have to put all your egg in one basket. Contact the support team of Etherdelta. They might help. 

maybe not only in Etherdelta you put your private key .
and i think you put it in some phishing site .
like fake MEW site

I'm not really sure about the amount, is that real $65,000? Contacting etherdelta wont help as there is no proofs that etherdelta is the one who steal all his tokens. Just like other said, he must have visited a phishing site which steal his tokens. I'm sure the real etherdelta wont do such thing.
Always be careful while visiting any sites, bookmarking the real site may help.

Sorry for your loss, OP.

Yes, it seems you were using the legitimate ED website.

I am not an expert, but my best guess is that your computer is compromised.

Etherdelta is a trustworthy site, and they actually puts the majority of the security practices in the hands of the user, be sure you know what you are doing when handling your private keys etc.

I highly doubt you can get re-imbursed your losses, so the best course of action would be to try and follow the money taken from you. Maybe the attacker will give away clues of his/her identity and location.

For an amount that big, i'd personally give it a shot, but don't get your hopes up.

Sorry, and best of luck Sir.

I am sure you are using fake links, etherdelta trusted, I have used it repeatedly no problem, I also directly import account using private key .. have lots of warning in this forum about fake links, including etherdelta.
I think we have to be really careful and careful, mistakes happen because of our carelessness

be careful with fake links
So far etherdelta is not a problem in transaction security when looking at the events you are experiencing I am sure it is not the falid etherdelta
