1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Help re Unconfirmed transaction to 'Hashbot' scam on: January 04, 2018, 01:51:54 PM
Hi guys,

I made a deposit to Hashbot for $90 before I found out that the site was a HYIP scam. The site is now offline.

Luckily for me, I included such a low fee that the transfer has been unconfirmed on the network since the 28th November!

How long will it be before the transaction is forgotten, and therefore the balance reappear in my wallet?
Or, is it possible to do a child pays for parent or similar transaction to change the output from the scam wallet address back to one of my own?

FYI the transaction was made through blockchain.info wallet, but happy to export my private keys into a new wallet if it would provide additional options.

My wallet address used was:      1K5xCmVyJ6a8MjxrbqE8K3wbu4ezcHrYiy
 
Scam wallet address used was:  1uUY8fzNUofXgCuQ7Bon91TKBaJAPbqAf

I used to think I was reasonably well informed, but after reading various websites i'm very confused about what to do next so help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Stephen
