I already said that it most likely will not work. Of course it can be considered as criminal, bitcoin has value and is, therefore, an asset irrespective of any "official institution" definition. Theft of an asset is a crime in any country. The problem is only that the police will lack any means to investigate and the perpetrator will be almost impossible to track down and probably out of jurisdiction. The OP did not say where they are but if it is the US then as Polinex is registered there the chances of getting Polinex to do something are slightly improved if the police could be persuaded to approach them.

agree with the above statement...its really bad what happen to you

Hi, I have been stolen the 10 bitcoins in my electrum wallet!!
Because I have used a fake application or malware that coming from electrumdesktop.org, and I think there is another fake scam website: electrumbitcoin.org

Please be careful, or we can find out those scam website publisher.

Also, I found an interesting thing here:
I've followed the thief's transaction flow. And finally found my balance has flowed into this three address:

https://blockchain.info/address/1N52wHoVR79PMDishab2XmRHsbekCdGquK
https://blockchain.info/address/12cgpFdJViXbwHbhrA3TuW1EGnL25Zqc3P
https://blockchain.info/address/17A16QmavnUfCW11DAApiJxp7ARnxN5pGX

They are all such a huge amount bitcoins address. Is that possible that they are exchange service account?
Is there any way to ask each exchange service to verify if those addresses belong to them? with the policeman's help

Thank you very much!
I think the hacker uses an exchange service account to sell your Bitcoin, although I doubt this problem can be solved with the policeman's help, but there is no harm in trying because your losses are too much.

I am sorry to hear that, my friend. But honestly this is really hard to return the money as it's crypto currency. Thank you for sharing the info so people can be more careful. Good luck to you!

I know how you feel, that's really very annoying. but this is the world of crypto, no transactions can be canceled. You should be more careful next time, because more and more hackers and scammers are lurking us.

There is no chance of retrieving it back if it came from a Phishing site. Also seeing the addresses' total received quantity of Bitcoin is huge which is pretty unusual for being undetected us it would be flagged by now, having an address with 3 million + Bitcoins received is an insane amount to see. And may I ask how did you chance upon the fake website "electrumbitcoin.org" to let other members here serve it as a warning in the future.

Why you did able to believe on such thing? Its really obvious that site was just a scam and try to phish users by inputting their important informations to access electrum and its normal for hackers to divide those funds to complete their anonymity and tracing up would really be hard because those coins are being scattered already.Sorry for your loss mate and this thing would really serve as a learning for you.

What a waste! Thats too bad man. Losing that means no other ways to get it other than the one who got it changed their mind which they will not. Thats a large amount of money. You should be cautious around all sites and even on your own computer. Computers are easily hackable and malwares are still popping out day by day. Sorry for you but I think you should just try better next time so that it will not happen again. No policemen can help as it is untraceable or rather so secured. Also, most of them don't even know what is BTC. Good luck man.

Omg really? Its too much expensive u just waste your money but sorry for that by the way
I really hate the scammers because the bitcoin is very expensive and it is very tough to make the bitcoin use as the bitcoin value and the bitcoin price will increase more and more, it is very hard to earn the bitcoin so it good to do the hard work and to earn the bitcoin instead of the scamming and stealing the bitcoin from the other people I hope the bitcoin will be the best currency it needs to make safe now.

My friend there is so little chance to return you money back neither with police or other methods...
We need to be super caution in cryptocurrency world...
good luck to you

this case is very often happen so thats why sometime there is warning to use bitcoin carefully since no way to return the money if get stolen.
Its gloomy to get such a news but unfortunately we could do nothing for your betterment, as it is mentioned again and again that be wise during trading and keep your wallet offline while making a deal so that no one can get access to it, look now how much worthy a single bitcoin is and you have lost your 10, it is hard to recover the loss but be carefull next time

I just happened to follow another fund flow.  The address happened to be one of the three you mentioned.


http://bitcoinwhoswho.com/blog/2017/11/29/most-frequently-reported-bitcoin-scam-addresses/

You'll see the description as "Stolen btc for faking electrum website including malware"

The address' balance was over 100k btc.
