Well, i'm not surprise to read all & see all these stuff happening on the internet.

Most people are careless when it comes to online activities. They are better of when dealing with physical activities (stores) because atleast they are safer & can always have someone to blame should in case thing's go wrong.

When it come to online virtual currency where nobody should be held responsible or blame should in case something goes wrong. The user's have to be matured enough and be sure of what they are doing at any point in time otherwise, they should pause and seek advice on forum like this. Some of the administrator's in the house are willing to help but, surprisingly, all we see is crying victims who only come back to share such unpleasant stories.

Talking about malicious site(s) or fraudulent link(s), this has been one of the most commonly used strategies by unenthical hacker's. Come to think of it, don't this sound stupid to save 5 or more value worth of bitcoin on a computer without installing or correctly configurating anti virus software on your pc?


FYI, anti virus such as AVAST can automatically block your pc and run the spyware/virus detention if/when they suspect any website/link. Clicking on malicious link(s) are inevitable since, this are bound to occur occasionally when we are distracted especially by people who are incompetent or  when friend's/family member's gain access to our computer.

Now, can you see why you have to do more than just avoiding to click on suspicious link?Instead, you need to configurate your pc to block any trojan,program's that will automatically install itself on your pc without your permission.


Thanks

some online news spread about hackers.
and I see from the facebook page, an ico has been attacked by two hackers. I forgot not to secure the link.
this is very worried, ico should be able to fix the error of their server and their web. because this will backfire for the outstanding ico. about the security issues that investors fear very much.

I think they are active yes but bitcoin wont be affected by that it will be high as it is right now or even higher because of that so many people want it and even people try to steal or hack it.
I was not sure about this but few days back I have email some one from Russia is trying to enter in my blockchain account but fail to do this so now I am very careful about this changing all passwords and details regularly because I don't want to lost my money in this way

Yes they are. That is why I am scared to buy my own Bitcoins yet. This is one of the risk of Bitcoin investing.

You should not be scared to buy your own Bitcoins as long as your computer doesn't have malware you will be fine just do not give away your password!!!

You can't avoid hacker attacks but you can improve your security. Don't keep large amount of bitcoins on exchangers, just the sum you want to trade, always update antimalware on your computer and mobile phone and be careful with your data connected to wallets, don't open suspicious attachments in your email. You have to be careful but not paranoic.

There are several ways to keep you safe from harmful viruses.
1. Do not use fake windows
2. Always update your system (windows) regularly
3. Enable security in the computer
4. Add an updated anti-virus
5. Always check the web address before logging in, keep fishing.

may be useful.

Hackers are actively working 24hours a day to steal and to destroy. So watch and be careful with your phone and computers and your password to avoid the hackers everywhere.

Hackers have been around since the day that a guy pushed a punch card into a computer. There is nothing in the mechanisms of bitcoin that can be hacked with a return that is worth the time and effort. The weak points are the websites that maintain your information and your own computer. The only hacking that I have seen that could be proven was the stealing of passwords and such from a personal computer.

Some bitcoin users told me not to do transactions in these couple of days because hackers are active these days. I want to know is it true? or some kind of rumor? Anyone here who have faced such problem?

it is fake. Although you transact the hackers cant harm your wallet because you have the so called Private key. This will protect your wallet for potential hackers. And please always be reminded that bitcoin's blockchain has a tight security and privacy so dont get afraid when purchasing using bitcoin,

Hackers are everywhere and they are active all the time. I think it's useless to stop make a transaction today because yesterday, now and later hackers are always there. The existence of hackers is very secret, hard to see but always there. So what is needed is our caution. If we are careful maybe we will be safe from hackers.

Hacker are everywhere as these days there are many fake, phishing websites spreading. So we should be careful in opening a site that may hack your btc. Be cautious with dealing a site, be vigilant and be safe to protect your account.
ya nowadays too many phising site that can make people lose their coins. maybe what is booming now is Myetherwallet phising site because some ICO use Ethereum token and this can be good chance for hacker to spread phising links

Many people lose their pennies because they can not guarantee the security of what they are using. If you are careful, everything can be safe.

hackers are active anytime and anywhere so dont except this day because day by day hrs after hrs the hackers are active. they are every where, so to avoid them you need to secure all of you wallets and seeds and dont tell anybody for this, do not trust anyone in terms of security  of your bitcoin if you dont want to loose your bitcoin. also secure all your gadgets too by not using unknown app/software to prevent/avoid hackers.

Hackers are always there, it is the result of human greed to something valuable to everyone. You just have to always one step ahead of them so you will not be one of their victims. Always double check and do some research first about what you are engaging into in this digital world. In general,  youbshould out smart them.

Yes, hackers are everywhere and they are also active all the time. And as for me, I think it's useless to stop making a transaction today because yesterday, today and the next days, hackers are always there. I think that, the existence of hackers are very secret and hard to see but always there. So, what people needs to do  is their cautions and consciousness. Because if we people are always careful maybe we can be safe from hackers.

What the f*ck are you talking about do you think someone skillful and educated enough to be a hacker is that desperate for small money?
Hackers are always there, it is the result of human greed to something valuable to everyone. You just have to always one step ahead of them so you will not be one of their victims. Always double check and do some research first about what you are engaging into in this digital world. In general, you should out smart them.
Not true, hackers always have a meaningful goal, they hack to achieve something other than money, yes there might have been some jerks hacking to get a few bucks but they're just idiots, they have no idea how they're wasting their talent on useless tasks.
The real hackers are part of a larger group they fight for something which the ordinary people like you and I are not capable of doing it for ourselves.

Hackers are everywhere, waiting for the opportunity to invade and destroy everything. There are many fake sites, we also very difficult to distinguish. Always take care and protect your account so that your money is not lost. To handle the cases of hackers I also have no experience, help me.

Hackers are always looking for easy ways to steal you. Create fake websites, phishing, spam even. The main thing is put a good antivirus software and do not go for questionable links, and do not download unproven applications.
I think that there is no time for hackers to hack something of their interest. They are as you told always keep their eyes on differed things and waiting for the right time. And when they got some easy time they hack. It is not that they are active in these days only. But on one way you are right that they are more active these days about bitcoin because of the rising price and increasing interest of the people.
