You Probably got what they call a "phishing email" looks like the real website, but its a fraud site.


be more careful next time and view the address on top to make sure its the actual site, never click on email links. NEVER

Coins are now here:

https://blockchain.info/address/1ASzhmigL24UtZXPuoDMPwXdAxqygsg4WQ

Have not moved yet.

I guess you should forward the email to someone here who is brave enough to look into it (not me - not my area of expertise).

Would anyone care to see if they can find out anyting about the email?

What email client did you use to open that message?  If web-based, which site and which browser?

Were you logged into your blockchain.info account already today (already entered the 2FA for today)?

[Hmmm.  Maybe I will change my 2FA to "every time" instead of "once per day" - now that I think about this]

No, haven't logged in for a month or so.

I have speculated on a possible explanation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=405411.msg4391686#msg4391686 although if you haven't logged into it for a month this is probably not the case here.

Seen quite a few similar sounding stories around here lately though.

It seems he used a proxy.

Wait send me that email, I don't have BTC. I might be able to trace that email.

Those IPs may not be the IP of the thief, but the nodes that relayed the tx.

I know, That is why I need the email, The header might have his actual I.P.

^^ Thief could have been connected to proxy when sending the email, seems unlikely that they would be so foolish as to connect with their real IP.  That said, what do you have in mind to trace the sender?

It is worth trying, Unless you can sue the proxy company for  giving a fraudster asylum.
