Be smart with your shit. You had a keylogger and rat clearly on your shit. That is your fault. You can put all the security you want on anything but the best security is your brain.
But I don't mean to be hard on you, I went through something very very similar. Lost 3 bitcoins within the first month of me buying them many months ago due to my wallet.dat file being straight up stolen.

How was your wallet stolen? It would help us noobies if you expanded answers so others can learn from others mistakes. No?

i had 2 factor autentication. and also really strong password.
i think somehow they were able to piggyback my pc and dns relay to their phishing site. so i logged in and basically gave them my password. really fuked up how i feel right now. i was going to buy an avalon tomorrow with this money. i feel fuked in the ass right now
thief info. which is basically useless now cause of the bitcoin nature. (temp wallet id)
he stole my btc to this wallet 1npXSUox9upXg9HVFrVmikxe9qBL6a17L
and than directly after that to this wallet: 15GEXsfUU3hexHiArbYmVusYartaVkreqT

sorry for your loss. you should have researched and used a cold storage wallet. when you're using cloud storage, your fate is in the hands of someone else and not your own.

I would suggest doing a virus scan and checking if you were password was keylogged or something. BlockChain is a pretty secure wallet.

Really unfortunate =/ but what kind of two-factor authenticator were you using? If you use something on your phone which generates a random number with 6 digits every ~20 seconds, it takes a lot for a keylogger to monitor your screen all day waiting for you to type in the authenticating code.

Sorry for your loss. Reinstall your OS.
Good trick is test everything with small BTC sums to check if your system is clear.

I'm also sorry for your loss.
Can you elaborate on what OS you used? It does sound as if your own machine could be the issue.

i never use windows to log into my blockchain account.. way way too risky. windows is a dirty o/s with lots of vulnerabilities.

i was logged in already. and suddenly i was logged of. they routed blockchain to other website. so i thought i was still on blockchain. and trying to log back in. they got all the shit they fuking needed. so me there trying to login. i got mail waller withdraw........fuck. i checked with wireshark and it was indeed DNS reroute to other IP adress.
- going to reinstall All OSes in my network. - change my static provider IP
problem with blockchain is its open as hell. you can follow every transaction to every wallet and see how much they have in there. and little more knowladge you can even track the user which is logged in the wallet.

look up electrum, multibit, or armory.. then you won't have to worry about anyone jacking your assets. for an newbie user, it takes maybe an hour or 2 to figure out, but in the end it'll save you a lot of worrying.

Sorry for your loss, but this was a mistake on your end. Using a possibly compromised system.

no i had firewall. antivirus, vpn, and i surf standard on proxy. so in my mind i am anonymous.... but guess not. going to buy avalon in hand tomorrow for a good price. hope to mine back what i lost. and this time cold storage. i guess no online wallet is secure enough. any tips what cold wallet is the best? and how to combine it with deposit to other people when i want to spend??
