92 NEO Stolen

[jmarke]

Yesterday I realized that 92 NEO and 4,5 gas (8500$) have been stolen from my NEON wallet at 10/04/2018. I’ve been in shock since that moment, this is a money that is part of my family savings and right now everything is a nightmare. Guys, this kind of things are ruining crypto. I was a crypto-enthusiastic, and now, maybe, I’m off.

My PC (windows) was perfectly protected, or I think it was. I’ve contracted a 2-year NordVPN Service and a 1-year Bitdefender antivirus. I’ve followed all the steps and this things are real, this things are happening. My private keys were kept in an external USB and I always write the private keys, not Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V.

I apparently made one mistake, one wrong click that allow a Trojan or some kind of virus into my PC. And then, only the evil mind of a person do the rest.

I’m desperate, I’m not know what to do.

If someone can guide me through this, I will be forever grateful.

My old NEO address is:

AWYT5yPFtyPWV5MEyvaxFSBTh5SDcsAUkg

And the thief-adress is:

APLqh6aDwAJkm4pxdi4fiiZRr52GrLm7ED


These are the transactions:

I still don’t understand why people can do such things. For god sake, we are in an incredible bull market, just invest something and everything will be all right. Stop wasting your time and destroying others’ lives…

I feel sorry for you. Yes, there are a lot of such moments in the market. 8500$ is a lot of money horror, we must be careful in these moments.

If you have that much money loaded  in your PC(or external storage) you have to be careful yourself.
I never keep anti virus, because I dont use windows.
Either have linux or mac.Windows sucks asses in protection.
You should have bought a physical nano wallet, or just kept them safe in a paper wallet.

Anyways, I would suggest you to open a bounty thread to track the hacker.A bounty worth 1k for your 8.5k cryptos will be perfect and benefitial for you too.

Good luck mate, and be strong.

Head over to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=85.0, make a post asking people how to create a bounty for your stolen coins.Experienced user's will reply to your thread with all details you are going to need to run that bounty.Ask all of your doubts in that new thread of yours.

They are lost, unfortunately. See this as a lesson, albeit a very expensive lesson. Buy yourself some proper hardware wallets or even a trading laptop. Don't let this happen again.

[tamango]

I am very sorry about that.. I have lost 4 NEO 6 months ago and today I didn't know how they have done (I'm using MAC updated and have never clicked on fake sites or had trojans....)

Since this day, I only use a Ledger for coins that I have unless airdrops and small amount....

[silverleafy]

This why I bought ledger nano, because I am afraid of this things, hackers are thieves just like scammers.
I feel sorry for you.

[SavageBrother]

Mannnn, this is an expensive lesson. You will not get your tokens back, I can guarantee you that. See it as a very expensive lesson and invest in some proper hardware storage. Take care.

[shvetseu]

I'm very sorry, I hope you survive this case and in the future will earn much more money. This once again reminds us that you need to be as cautious as possible.

[cometoft]

Woah, that's a huge sum of money. I don't think that is still recoverable as that is the idea of blockchain. I'm sorry for the loss.

[Coltpython]

This is the downside of cryptocurrency. Poor security of assets. Until something serious is done about it, I'd advise anyone to make use of a trezor or ledger wallets to be on the safe side.

[Ciucas]

I am very sorry to hear what happened to you, but unfortunately there is nothing you can do to recover your NEO. I have read another case yesterday with someone who lost 8000$ worth of ETH from his MEW, so it looks like both NEO and ETH are vulnerable.
Probably the best way to store them are with a Ledger device( it supports both NEO and ETH), i don't think anyone has managed to hack this yet.

[GFE]

If you have deal with criptocurrency you must be 100% sure that your coins is safe. So I advise you to buy separate computer (Macbook is the best) and deal with criptocurrency only. Also do not participate in airdrops - sometime it is phishing links there
