My ether wallet with (187$) hacked today

Can you share with us the name of that third party app so that we can be careful? We should always download the app from the official website. It is not right to input the private key of our wallet by downloading the app from any sourch. Also those who use ERC 20 web wallet can use Metamask wallet. Because its security is very strong.

Wow, how does both of you manage to dig up this old thread? Did you guys didn't read on when this thread created? it's so nonsense to reply your concerns or even any advices since the OP or other users who posted here from the past for sure forgot about their post here so guys better find more reliable new thread to post your discussions.

Ethereum blockchain is not shit and everyone can not hack Ethereum blockchain, at least till now no news about Ethereum blockchain being hacked has been heard of, but however what gets hacked is users wallet and it happens when they failed to protect their private keys. That you got hacked means you did something you were not meant to do, such as importing your wallet to an untrusted mobile wallet application, platform or website. Therefore, the only way to be protected against hacks is by storing your private keys securely, being mindful of the websites you visit and using only trusted wallet applications.

Are you still sending Ethereum to that address? you have already understood that it was hacked and your funds were stolen and hackers will keep stealing whichever is available on that wallet.
Have you remembered the app that you used?

I also want to ask how the characteristic of mew we exposed hakced.?
and how we can avoid it

Mew isn't hack but if anyone else knows your private key then there can hacked your wallet. Otherwise if you gonna put your private key in pshing site like fake site then they can easily take your wallet. So avoid fake mail and don't participate fake airdrop and never input your private key in another site.

You are crying for a few bucks worth of Etherium? I am constantly seeing people who waste 5k+$ on missclicks and bad deals, that is the bigger problem. Even though we could add that when you transfered that ether is was worth less

maybe it is a big amount for him, how do you know, what if it's almost all that he got in crypto, i would be pissed if i got hacked even for ten bucks, nobody wants to see his money no matter the amount is, go away and vanish through the air.

sorry to hear that you lost your Ethereum. I saw You are a newbie at this forum. maybe you are new also to the crypto world. so I will suggest you first try to know how to store crypto safe and securely. Every day a lot of people losing their funds like you. it's very common in the crypto world. My suggestion for you is: never put your private key online, try to wrote or print out those keys in a safe place. never download any third party app/software. it's very risky, You may be affected by malware easily in this way. before download, any file first tries to scan those files/websites with virus total (https://www.virustotal.com/gui). before opening your wallet in any browser, try to use Private Window, it's very important. because we use the various extensions on our computer and that extension can also lookup at our private key.

can i return it ? or what ? i really been sad not for the money but for the Eth blockchain heaviness and its now a shit everyone can hack it

any help is really apprciated

Nope, there is no way to return your fund honestly. Crypto currency is different with bank, if you make a mistake to send your fund then there is a possibility for bank to return your fund, but it is different with crypto currency. One of the way to return your fund is someone who own the wallet itself. Although you contact the etherscan owner they can't be able to return your fund, believe me. Just take an experience by this incident. You have to keep your prikey or every stuff that can access to your wallet.
