In this case its similar to you dropping a $20 bill out of your pocket somewhere while out on the street and trying to find it again. Its gone. The hackers got in, raided your account. Nothing can be retrieved.

As it says in that email do those actions to secure your account.

Your pc could be compromised too, definitely get that checked out too.

Sorry man its gone, how much did you lose?

I lost 1.4 BTC almost. I am using only iPhone so its not possible to compromize it as well as my gmail account have all secutity options enabled.


Cryptopia simply closing tickets and I have no opportunity to discuss my issue with them in a proper way to get refund of my money and answers on below questions:

1) How is it possible that someone accessed to my account if only I have login, password and pin code to it and I am always following all security recommendations?
2) Why I didn?t receive notification to my email regarding suspicious login from Brazil IP address 189.40.105.95?
3) Why I didn?t receive withdrawal confirmation request to my email? I have immediate notification of all new emails on my iphone.Cryptopia said that they send it to me and I confirmed it - but this is not true. Also they said that someone compromise my gmail account as well not only my cryptopia account but gmail account is not compromised - it is not possible as gmail tracking all my login history and have information about all authorized devices and report about new devices and IP addresses, it's easy to check.
4) Why cryptopia does not provide simple function like Login History to their clients?
5) Where is the proof of evidence that someone logged in to my account from Brazil IP address 189.40.105.95 as I don?t believe this information?
6) Where is a proof that they send me an email and I confirm withdrawal? This is not possible as my gmail account have no security issues. Screenshots are attached.
7) On their forum there are many complaints from users about unauthorized withdrawals, but they show only 25 last posts in their Forum search so people can't find similar issues. But I found one more user with nickname ?alberto9641? account balance was withdrawn to the same BTC address 1HU7vN7dmsX2Et8RjCSwP1dhDyE49emr5k on 16/03/2018 11:16:00 PM without his approval: https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Forum/Thread/8959?postId=54846.

Based on all these facts I made a conclusion that Cryptopia simply withdraw all my BTC balance to unauthorized account that may belong to one of their company members and take no responsibility about their actions and does not provide support with any facts that can proof that my account was compromised as it is their responsibility to provide secure financial operations.

Cryptopia withdraw all my BTC balance to another wallet without approval or notification. They don't have any security at all, and this is their sorry message that i gor after a week of asking for support and they simply closed my ticket:
When was the last time you used antivirus? Maybe you have keylogger and someone catch your emails password.
Please help to get my money back from them!
Unfortunately, no one can do anything here. You can open scam accusation if you believe cryptopia has stolen your funds, but honestly, this looks like you were phished or something  Undecided

I am using only iPhone always, so its not possible to get my login details as well as gmail account have all security options enabled and there is ony my devices are authorized.

Thanks for waiting for us to get back to you about this.

I'm sincerely sorry to see this has happened to you. I've completed my investigation into this and can see that your account was actually accessed by another person - IP address 189.40.105.95. This IP address appears to originate from Brazil. We are absolutely certain there have been no user credentials leaked from Cryptopia, and if yours are known to someone else, they must have been obtained from activity or information of your own.

Your account was accessed by this IP address at 3/7/2018 2:40 AM(UTC), and then a minute after that, everything was withdrawn to the address 1HU7vN7dmsX2Et8RjCSwP1dhDyE49emr5k. Unfortunately, this is not a Cryptopia held address so we cannot freeze it to try and recover these funds. As this withdrawal has made it to the blockchain, there isn't anything we're able to do to reverse it, due to the nature of the blockchain itself. You can see this here:

https://blockchain.info/tx/de96cf30119fa3c295fa0794fd6a0036acc6f21479de047d4d04d6f095512558

The withdrawal was also confirmed via an email sent to your registered email address according to our systems, so you should consider that account compromised as well. You may not have received this email if your Withdraw confirmation email had been disabled when you were compromised, then re-enabled afterwards via the Security page at https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Security.

Unfortunately we’re unable to determine from our end how your email account was compromised, however the most common form we are seeing in these investigations is when the corresponding email address showing up on reported data leaks, and/or is being used for other internet services.

All Cryptopia accounts start with a static 4-8 digit Two Factor PIN number by default, which you set on registration along with your email address and password. This PIN is only a simple form of 2FA, and it’s highly recommended you set up a more secure type of 2FA once you’ve logged into your account. The most secure form of 2FA are dynamic codes, such as Google Authenticator and our Cryptopia Authenticator Device.

From the Security settings for your Account, you can change your 2FA settings of your choice for each activity field on Cryptopia. Please note that you need to remove your current 2FA setting for each activity before you can select and apply other types. 2FA is set for Login as well as a number of other account activities by default: Settings (Security), Lockout, Withdraw, Transfer, and Tip. You will need to enter your 2FA code each time you attempt to access any of these functions while 2FA is applied on them, If you use a static form of 2FA (PIN, Password, Security Question) please set this to something unique you do not use for anything else.

At this stage I recommend changing your email password immediately, It’s very important you use an email provider which supports 2FA on your email account. Please check if your current provider supports 2FA and enable it if so. If your current email provider does not support 2FA, we suggest you look into finding a provider which does support it, and you can then request Cryptopia Support to change your registered email address in a new support ticket. For extra security, we recommend that users of Cryptopia have a dedicated email address that's only used for Cryptopia related activity.

Much of your information, and access to other accounts, can be gained with access to your email account, so please ensure yours is secure.

A number of important emails may be sent from Cryptopia to your registered email address with information relating to activity on your account, such as logins, failed login attempts, withdraw confirmations. They often include links giving you the ability to quickly lock your account for a 24 hour period if you receive notification of activity that wasn’t made by you.

Another important thing to note, is that there are always phishing scams going on which disguise themselves as Cryptopia. We get these taken down as soon as we find them, however I would advise being very vigilant in that regard all the same. I would strongly recommend visiting https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Forum/Thread/5153, we try and keep this as up to date as possible. This goes into detail about the various scams that we've identified who are pretending to be Cryptopia and provides some examples you can have a look at to determine whether or not your details may have been compromised via one of these sites.

Please use caution to avoid using any unauthorised websites, apps, or search results which impersonate Cryptopia. Your login credentials should NEVER be used anywhere except on our securely signed site with a certificate from Cryptopia LTD [NZ]: https://www.cryptopia.co.nz

I can definitely appreciate that this is not the nicest way to learn about account security, and again, I'm sincerely sorry for your loss.

Kind regards,


Cryptopia Support

Please help to get my money back from them!
