It can be hacked only when you do something wrong. Many MEW wallets were hacked using phishing pages. You wont have to worry as the keys are kept safe. Make sure you don't use public computers to access MEW wallet.

As long as your private key is not being disclosed to any external body except you then your wallet is safe and secure. It can only be hacked if those information is being disclosed.

You almost answered the question yourself, which was asked about the etherwallet. The fact is that the wallet was hacked by many users because of their misuse. In short, it is the fault of the owners themselves.

Hack can anything, but it all depends on the level of protection. MEW is very secure and I think your funds are protected. The main thing is not to fall for phishing sites. I once went inadvertently on this site. It's good that I didn't enter my data there.

My MEW never felt hacked by someone some time ago. Somehow but some of my coins disappeared and sent to an address. When I searched the address, I saw quite a lot of delivery history from MEW others.

Not met people who have just lost the money, people usually do not abide by safety rules and lose the keys.

A broken computer does not mean that the MEW has also broken down. The important stuff is that you have a private key in a safe place. You can enter MEW on any other computer. However, do not use the private key in the future. It is better to download the JSON-file and enter MEW with help of it.

myetherwallet platform can be cracked by anyone, my recommendation for you is do not open myetherwallet with private key. it's better to use utc, because a lot of hacking happen because someone open myetherwallet only with private key.
Yes this is the safest way. Don't get trusted anyone knows your private key. Because this is the only key that your MEW can be hack anytime. Used UTC keystone instead if you get to open your MEW because it has your password to keep prevented it. This is already happened with my best friend that he accidentally lifted his MEW open with his private key in the internet cafe shop's, he completely losses his portfolio for a few hours passed and that was being hacked by whom he does not know.

If you have private keys safe and your paper with private keys are safe then I believe that your funds will be okay and won't be hacked. You have to know that the main key is private keys, do not lose it.

Unfortunately, any wallets could be hacked if your computer is compromised by some spyware. Take care of your computer if you do not want to face with that issue.

Hi! Unfortunately, yes. But you can make it more secure if you will use MetaMask or LadgerWallet with MEW. These addons will make MEW almost totally secure.

for me yes because if they know the private key our any data that can use to access your wallet they can access it. then can use keylogger, phishing and other. ^_^

I think the MyEtherWallet wallet is one of the most reliable purses, which is protected by a secret key that can not be picked up or hacked in any other way. In the situation described by you, it's better to use the function etherscan.io to check the contents of the wallet, and then everything will be okay with your wallet. By the way, this function at the same time and shows the rate of your tokens in your wallet in relation to the dollar, which is quite convenient.

You won't lose your funds if your private keys are safe with you, do not let your private keys gone or stolen. Peoples could get into your account without a private keys.

You did well by getting your keys on a usb and on a piece of paper. Storing them in your computer is risky. Secondly myetherwallet is not %100 safe so you need to be very careful no matter what. Your coins would still be there but it's better to keep your coins in a hardware wallet if you ask me.
