I lost all my crypto in Stake.com

[PX-Z]

I just changed my Stake's account password to test this and you are right! They didn't request an email verification to approve the changes or even send a notification email.

When I changed my password after the hacker, it sent me a notification in my e-mail. And it sent me another notification when I add the 2FA again. And I disable the 2FA just to do a test, and I got notified too, but when the support disabled the hacker 2FA for me, I didn't get notified, so that's why I thought it was a inside job (be able to do these things and not notify the email related to the account), so I basically just made this accusation in order to see if there was other people with the same problem as me and what they did after.

This is a fucked up security practice that Stake is still continuing. Based on other replies this is not the first time happened, even with the 2FA enabled. Also CS changing things without any email notification will give you a hint in this practice. This will still have similar incident in the future until they made change to it.

A small correction to make things clear and avoid any unintentional misunderstanding, Stake's CS did not change things. They do didn't give any notification upon password change and 2FA activation, but it's not them who change those security measures in the first place.

Thanks for sharing the other cases (the one that happen with the 2FA set in makes me think that the best way for me is just stop betting with stake or any other brand).[...]

Perhaps this is the best way, to stop gambling completely. After all, gambling is intended for fun and recreational purpose. If you don't enjoy it, then it failed its purpose and you'll probably set for a better life without it.

So you mean the same day a connection has been made from Brazil and another one from the other side of the world, from Latvia in Eastern Europe, and it didn't trigger anything when a password change and several withdrawal requests to new crypto addresses covering all your funds have been made from this new location 11 000 km away? They didn't think one second, that your password could have been compromised by a hacker from Eastern Europe or elsewhere? While they refuse withdrawals to other people KYC level 4 verified because one document they require is missing, saying they could have stolen the identity of someone else LOL

And I looked up in my gmail, and there was no access from outside Brazil, so the hacker did all this without any kind of access to my gmail, just by the stake website.

The sad part is that I took the 2FA out because my phone was having problems turning on and I was afraid I was gonna loose my funds.

Anyway, all the crypto was obtained by me betting with the monthly bonus I received over the years, I never transfer from another wallet or anything like that (but stills hurts loosing them).

If it's any consolation, if we refer to the past and similar case the 2FA won't mean much. The hacker can "bypass" 2FA. The player on the referenced post had his 2FA set in place, and his fund were still nonetheless drained.

So, it's not your fault and stop beating yourself with the "what if... I didn't took the 2FA" thought, because it won't matter, you'll quite likely still got hacked. It's not your fault. Don't dwell on that part. Your situation is already bad enough without you kicking yourself.

And know that though this few days and weeks ahead seems a dreadful living nightmare for you, you're not at rock bottom. See it as a hiccup of your life. You can still get up and brushed the dust from your knees and shoulders, and then keep walking.
