No this is impossible. You only get to see the wallet the money entered but cant take it back.

Exactly, Things didn't work like banks when some of its client gets scammed or else they will still have the chance to retract the money because it's centralized and have authority to rule the transactions. But, bitcoin is decentralized, no one could country and there's no authority aswell. Basically in cryptocurrencies, if you lost your money, then you lost it.

really difficult , because it is irreversible when your robber already did transactions you could only know txid (id of transactions),but if have enough authority maybe you can tracked the robber, or ask the online wallet to open the identity use your extra authority, and also if your country legalize bitcoin , you can contact the police.

According to me once you have sent the money and the transaction has been confirmed there is 0% possibility of getting it back,all you can do is know which address you sent your btc to,this is the reason deep web accepts payment only in btc,because it is impossible to trace the owner through the transaction details.

not difficult at all all. i cant still see exactly where my stolen bitcoins have went, up to right now ( i believe they are split up among a bunch of random wallets, they have been spent ALOT of times ). the problem is that i dont know who any of those wallets belong to; they might as well be obscured. this is pretty much the point of bitcoin, at least one of them. being anon, virtually (its not real) while making transactions because addresses are so numerous. the blockchain would be useless if it did not record this.

yes you can trace the transaction even the address of the recipient but its imposible to get back your btc if this is already transfer in the other wallet..sad to say that but you have no choice just accept what you loss..

The blockchain technology was designed for anonymous transaction display relating to a person or place bit it doesn't erase transactions. However one can track the movement of a particular fund but you can't tie it to anything
