what way you found to stole 7.5 btc? you broke a computer or you stole it by hacking remotely someone? if you are not proud of it you should give back that money really, there was one case where someone got 50 btc from cryptsy, because of a bug in the withdrawals process and he returned them back, follow this example and do the right choice

7.5BTC is more money than most Mexicans should have, much less one willing to scam.  Hopefully you're actually in Mexico and not the U.S.

Bitcoin sector is full of scammers and frauds. I am active here for the last many months, and I have seen all sorts of people. If you claim ethical high ground now, then you may regret later about the decision. Anyway, it is up to the individual choice.

Sounds like some bullshit when it comes to you stealing that money, though if you actually did do something like that congrats to you and all but you're fucking scum from the bottom of the earth. You just stole thousands of dollars (if true) and that's absolutely horrible. And if you're coming here to see if you can find more methods to further your activities, then fuck off and I hope you rot in a prison cell when someone is bright enough to be able to find out that you did such a thing. I'll stop with my rant and then I'll let ya know the biggest scams, biggest is going to have to be phishing scams which is making a fake site to mimic a real one-- getting people to put in trusted information and stealing whatever you want from them. I'm not going to go any further but you can let your imagine have some fun

I think it will be good to tell us how you were able to steal the bitcoins not in a vivid detail but in a manner so that we will able to protect ourselves from the loophole you found and was able to exploit.

I would say the most common method hackers use to steal Bitcoins is by opening an exchange or online wallet, then after people have deposited lots of Bitcoins, you close down the site and take all the BTC for yourself. Shocked

A common method is social engineering. Making people install something that looks harmless on their computer... Either that, or phishing via email.

I recently found out a way and stole 7.5 bitcoin. (I'm no proud of it, I just am a broke mexican).

Most likely fake. Anyways, red trust from someone it DT in 3, 2, 1...

I think that this apps are the most not safe places to hold bitcoins, because of smartphones are stolen every day or just get lost or forgotten by the accident, so if a person will have someone's phone in hands he easily can open the wallet and send bitcoins in other place.

This is funny and racist Smiley

7.5 BTC is like what, a little over 19 thousand bucks? That's more than I have LOL, hell, that's more than most of my friends have saved up. I live in the US, rent is a monster that will not die here.

I read something recently that said most US families said on a survey they would have a deal if a $600 unexpected expense came up. 19k is like that and a fat bag of chips. This would be a payday for anybody Smiley

Keep your own keys. And keep your machine free of malware, you have to stay on top of virus protection. It's a must here I see Smiley

You stole 7.5btc in which you are not proud of but yet you still come here, create a thread and flaunt it then look for ideas on how to make more people cry over their hard earned resources. It would be better if you would share the idea you use so others be more careful as well. I have been a victim and I have learnt my lessons which a lot of people have been scammed as well.

I have had bitcoin and altcoins stolen from me, by phishing emails and also giving money to DEVS to do work for me and they didn't and they ran off with it. Unfortunately it's thieves like this that can put people off crypto altogether, which DAMAGES the marketcap and that's why my mother always says for me to take my money out not hold it in Bitcoin or Coins, a part of me now wants to take her advice. Last people that stole from me were from Indonesia, Tunisia and Eastern Europe. Last month I had over 1 btc worth of eth and eth tokens stolen from me by the myetherwallet phishing site, that sucked. I hope one day you return the stolen coins, because something bad can happen to you also in future..don't steal from others, there is nothing good in hurting people like me..   Cry

Lovely
I had almost similar thing happened to me few days ago on Poloniex. Happened while I was buying a coin, I hit "buy" several times and then sell cos the transaction had difficulty going through. It went through eventually and i checked back the following day only to find additional Bitcoin.
To be honest, I don't know if that was mine. I am  so sure I had no Bitcoin left after buying that Alt.

Though the bitcoin is little, I do not feel comfortable spending what I didn’t work for. I will definitely contact poloniex if am very sure it wasn't mine.

Man, that dude deserves to be celebrated.

Or more in the lines of asking for loans and without any intentions of paying them back.
Cause if they went to the bank in real life they would not get approved for one so they just go on the internet and look for some haphazard person to borrow from through you guessed it: Social Engineering them. Roll Eyes

Either that or just begs with multiple accounts they have created on various different websites.
Which is quite easy to do since they are free to register too.
Unlike some other website and forums where they charge their users to register just for the sole reason they create countless accounts such as this one with the sole purpose to scam with. Embarrassed

There are a few common methods that hackers are doing to steal bitcoins from others, one of the method was to create a simple site that promises to give away little amount of free bitcoins to new users on registration, if a user that register on the site uses the same email and password where he uses it as a login for other sites, hacker could access his accounts on other sites, I have personally seen a few users that lost quite a huge amount of bitcoins in their account due to this reason, and the admin of the site had to create a new account for them totally as changing of password could no longer works because the hacker would not log off that account once he managed to log in.

Another method would be asking users to download some software from links given by the hacker, the hacker would promise some rewards to be given to the user who does that, the link would normally contains malware and once a user download it into his personal computer, hacker could start to steal bitcoins from him.

Many people don't even need to be hacked. They're only too happy to give their bitcoins to total strangers for reasons I've never quite fathomed. You can never go too far wrong with the old if it's too good to be true thing.

Just quoting you for reference,the most common method every noob hacker use is trojan based attack and they will spoof a given data with an invisible trojan and target the vulnerable IP or the user,in the case of exchange hacks it is not a work that is carried out in a day or two,the hacker might collect the TCP UDP log for over a month and if they find any vulnerability they will proceed and the only possible way to avoid these sort of hacks is to monitor the logs regularly and analyze the logs and separate legitimate traffic,exchanges have to take security seriously to avoid these things .

IS NOT FAIR, TO  STEAL NO MATTER WHAT,EVEN IF YOU ARE  BROKE,THAT NO EXCUSE TO STEALING
WE ALL HAVE TO BE CAREFUL AND ENSURE WE CREATE STRONG  PASSWORD AGAINST  HACKERS, WITH THAT WE  CAN GET  TO  SAVE  OUR HARD EARN BITCOIN.
