What can I do?? I am disgusted..

Sadly there's nothing you can do, bitcoin transactions are final.  You may want to try contacting blockchain.info support, but I doubt you'll get anything out of it.

Use two-factor-authentication (2FA) from now on. Don't trust non-trivial amounts of money to services that don't offer 2FA.

This, or even better, use offline wallets.

I sent an email to support at blockchain. It seems the BTC is still unspent. What if any are my options???

It doesn't matter if they're unspent in the attacker's wallet. You cannot reverse Bitcoin transactions. This is by design. Sorry for your loss, but it's your fault for not securing your addresses properly.

I got a PM from a member saying blockchain has been hit hard the last few days.

Either way I know deep down I am fucked and it really hurts. Secure youre passwords people!!

[greyhawk]

Secure youre passwords people!!

Doesn't help. Get 2FA to another device or you're gonna get boned.

bitcoin is almost physical in a sense; when someone robs you, the only way you can get your money back is if you find the criminal in question ( make no mistake stealing any amount of bitcoin from anyone is Criminal ) and press charges hope he hasn't pissed away all the funds.

I think their are some safer e-wallets out there, its just a matter of finding the right one... I personally don't use ewallets only small account on seals with clubs, things like...

and when I do use e-wallets its 2 factor auth. its really not hard to setup and you can have relative peace of mind even with a larger sum in your account.

but a paper wallet you generate offline  is the only way to go for larger sums.

I have been scammed myself once or twice 200$ gift card for 40$ of BTC... type thing, learnt my lessons and moved on.

[Jenger]

This has really left a sour taste in my mouth with BTC. I should of researched a bit I just cant believe I had it for all of ~ 9hrs. Was I that fucking vulnerable?

I had gotten an email from blockchain about a month ago saying someone had my identifier code, tried to access my blockchain but didn't get the password. I researched that a bit and most people said not to worry about it.

Im going to take a few days and re read all the newbie shit because I feel like I skipped over so much when it comes to securing a wallet.

[BurtW]

Tell us a bit about the password you used on blockchain.info.  Not the password itself (unless you change it first, then you can give us the actual password).

Main questions are:

How long is it?
Did you use it on any other sites?
Is it a word or based on a word or words that may have some of the letters changed (example p@ssw0rd)?

My best guess is that someone guessed your password and stole your BTC.

[Jenger]

The password was a Norwegian professional snowboarders last name (non mainstream snowboarder) with two numbers at the end. No capitals, no weird symbols.

The password was the same as my gmail password. That and my SwC password were all the same. (Ive changed my passwords now obviously)

I don't think anyone could of guessed that on a whim in a few hours.

At 5:52am my email was breached however google claimed to of blocked them out.

At 6:51am payment was sent from my blockchain to attacker.

59 minutes it took them.

[grue]

I'm guessing:

a) your computer is compromised
or
b) blockchain.info/SwC was compromised

Could you ask the owner of seals with clubs for login logs for your account?

[Jenger]

I dont think SwC was breached because I had over 2btc in that account and nothing happened. They strictly went for blockchain.

Edit: Seems they moved it to here now https://blockchain.info/address/1Kc3bn3syspZqHoMRabK3CqEsc8H1WuiAo

EXPOSE THIS FUCKER?

[Jenger]

.5 BTC if you can help

[BuyBitcoin.US]

You should run a virus scan, it seems to definitely be a personalized attack. Something is on your system.

Have you downloaded anything recently?

If you can find the .exe, it may be possible to analyze the .exe file and see where it is sending logs to.

The password was the same as my....

There in lies the problem.

It doesn't matter if it was a 24 character alpha/numeric/symbol mixed password if you use at two places.

A hard lesson to learn. I'm sorry for your loss.

[Jenger]

I really honestly doubt it was someone that knows me. Im not much of a high roller by any means, I got lucky by winning the big btc.

I told my brother about me winning the btc. He knows nothing about BTC.

I am going to clean my computer today as best as I can but this seriously has me freaked.
