Title: Has my IOTA been stolen?!
Post by: Brokerstar on February 04, 2018, 02:24:08 PM
ALL OF MY IOTA HAVE VANISHED FROM MY WALLET?!

I opened my wallet for the first time today in a long time and my wallet was empty. I tried to reattached my address to the tangle to see if that did anything and nothing. So I've searched the tangle for my address and this is what it says?

As far as I'm aware all I have ever done is transfer my IOTA from Bitfinex to my wallet back in December and have never touched it since.

Does this look like my wallet has been hacked and the money stolen?? Or is there something I'm not doing right to access my funds?

I can't see your image, nor the image code.
Did you use the online seed generator? Because it was malicious.

How much was the balance before? Is it the transaction from Jan 19?

That may make some sense, the online seed generator  :'( :'( :'(

There was 1200 MIOTA's in there.

I heard on the news about two weeks ago that many IOTA holders got their IOTA stolen from their wallet because some online seed generators that using third party websites got compromised. Most likely you're one of them. Hope the issue can be addressed asap.
