Title: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: ahfs6298 on August 12, 2013, 05:11:38 AM woke up to find my shit all stolen just yesterday, thank god it was only just twenty or so dollars worth, but still, pretty gutted and all, anyways just warning you guys, if you ever see this particular address anywhere you'll know this guy is a thief. I woke up late about yesterday with my AV running overnight because I'd found I may have had a Trojan of some sort or something, only to find that my btc balance dropped to zero.

Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: bengtåke on August 12, 2013, 05:48:44 AM That sucks to hear. Try encrypting your wallet and make sure you don't still have any more trojans/whatever on your computer. :p

Try encrypting your wallet and make sure you don't still have any more trojans/whatever on your computer. :p so you suggest to not use winblows?Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: ahfs6298 on August 12, 2013, 09:08:13 AM i dunno, I mean , I'm pretty sure i had it all encrypted and all, its just I had the client on the whole time, it must;ve been on while the virus was still secretly running and all, I really didn't notice much until it was too late. I mean I'm pretty sure I remember I cut off my internet connection when scanning but I didn't double check my wallet until the morning....
Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: K1773R on August 12, 2013, 09:32:01 AM be aware that AV solutions are mostly placebo, you can never be secure @ winblows... thats a myth
Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: Yash on August 12, 2013, 10:54:48 AM Does this have anything to do with bruteforcing private keys?
Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: BCB on August 12, 2013, 01:01:24 PM Does this have anything to do with bruteforcing private keys? That is currently not possible. Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: HeroC on August 12, 2013, 03:01:36 PM Did you generate this address with Android Wallet? If so: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=271831.0

Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: krishatnet on August 12, 2013, 03:45:49 PM Sorry to hear. what wallet you are using?
Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: ahfs6298 on August 13, 2013, 10:20:44 AM just the norm I'm guessing, bitcoin-qt, guesing it would be safer since its the official one...
Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: canadabroker on August 13, 2013, 02:46:47 PM Windows or anything else.
your best bet is storing your private information on a separate usb key and using a live os to do any transactions. be aware that AV solutions are mostly placebo, you can never be secure @ winblows... thats a myth Title: Re: OMG my btc got stolen Post by: xanto on August 13, 2013, 02:56:24 PM That really sucks, sorry to hear.
