All my tokens in MEW stolen!

[gustaf.berg]

Oh, very sad. Your all tokens stolen in MEW. Its reason that you mentioned your key in your account. So anybody stolen your all tokens very easily.

I am also sad to hear that. This is my biggest fear. Because it is online I always feel vulnerable to any kind of hack despite I take care many things in security concepts.

I have been compromised too. MEW is not a safe please to store tokens if you don't safeguard your assets very well. Yesterday my TIO was stolen by this account here 0x221B9BAA14568685D49C3D4BC7D68B596D685506  the said 650 TIO was mine and I can prove it. If only there is someone to investigate about stuffs like this, people could have been saved from these malicious intent. This persons account is active and have ether on it, are there any possible means to track him down?

I got scammed by fake airdrop from https://kentra.tech/kyc/  i lost my coins worth $7000, it's not a good a feeling but i guess just need to move on as I cannot do anything on what happened, the address that stole my coins is 0x0a796062214cf4fc232dd8538a19035ac79a595c , be careful with fake airdrops, it cost me a lot, lesson learned the hard way.

I just logged into MEW and when check my balance everything except 45 tokens everything else has gone! My wallet was hacked, but where have all my tokens gone?

I am devastated. Has anyone else been hacked how is this possible?


I am not sure what to do! please advice folks.

Once the tokens are gone, there is hardly anything that you can do about it. MEW is a strong wallet, but if someone gets your private key then no amount of security precautions can prevent the tokens from getting stolen.

very disappointing when something ours has been stolen others and we can not do anything except just surrender it, it will happen if we mew hacked and token in it was stolen so I can only hope thieves do not target our wallets besides we also have to always securing our wallet keys

Oh no, have you participated in any airdrops or bounties? maybe you just login into a fake MEW, i also experience this one, one of my friend in cebu city, philippines, just experienced lately, and that all his MEW balances were 0.00 because he just participated in an airdrop where he need to login his MEW account and put all the important info., without knowing he has been a victim of hacking account, and now he has been worried all day long, unfortunately, the money cant be recovered, because it has been transferred to another account., my advise is that not the trust anyone, you are obligue to safe keep your account.

first of all I feel sorry for you and I hope not to repeat this case to friends who are in this forum.

- Try to check back Again your Ethereum address transactions go anywhere.
- Try to remember again, anyone who knows your Ethereum address and Private key besides you, suppose your relatives or friends.

because it is not possible to move the token when it knows the ETH address without knowing its private key.

Now this is a sad news that one of our co-members was hacked with his hard earned tokens. Hope this will not happen again. Let us unite to fight this heartless hackers who seem to not having a loving family of their own. How can they give food to their family with the money they gained from stealing.

[Negdan4ik]

most likely someone found out your key and stole all the coins, I'm sorry, my friend also had and was sad, but he unfortunately could not return anything.

[fb26]

Mine also someone hacked my account and he stole all of my tokens. I dont know how he did it because i didnt give my private key to anyone. He's a good hacker because when i read some comments in his eth address there's a lot of people commented that his a good hacker and he did stole all their tokens in just one snap.

[Devanomrz]

Yeah, hacking is possible
A years ago mew already got hacked
And i lost my token too
When btc reach the ATH
I lost about $1000
It's so sad

It's very unpleasant to lose your money.  I now use Avast Premier antivirus, it well blocks keyloggers and other viruses that are designed to steal your keys and passwords.  As an option to switch to Apple's hardware, MacOS is not subject to such things as far as I know.

Worst case scenario of people getting phished by giving away there private keys to hackers.
Be safe, keep your private keys safe, if you can , buy a hardware wallet instead like Ledger Nano S or Trezor or atleast install metamask.

[Lora_ng15]

unfortunately you do not have a chance to return your coins if you have stolen a secret key, hide it securely.

[andrejfilipov876]

Yes it is . if you lost your keys or stole them all . nothing to do

[minlirto]

we must never forget the simple rules of security . store your wallet login information only on portable devices

How they can scam you ? You give them your MEW key ? Airdrop or bounty will never request someone's key. Btw, you should use metamask. It's safer

I am not familiar with such cases, but I think that everything is possible and such a wallet is hacked.

I think you open your mew from email that have a link from mew site? because that's site was a phishing site the hacker make that to get your private key or you paste your private key to your bounty or any airdrop and more people can see you private key from spread sheet of the bounty that you apply or airdrops but my suspect is you log in your private key to the phising mew site.

[tinyteapot]

I think the reason for this is because you were not cautious of disclosing your private information and key to a third party or you clicked on a phishing site thereby the hacker got access to your private key because it is with this key that you will be able to access your funds.
