Can you change your payment BTC address so payments no more coming to blockchain wallet? If you can do that just use any other wallet, for example Electrum ( desktop wallet ). If you can not change address, try to change your blockchain wallet password and e-mail as soon as possible, and enable 2FA protection, this will prevent hacker to access your account. Also check you PC, it is possible that it is infected with some malware/keyloger/RAT, use free Malwarebytes and make a full scan.

I have changed password, 2fa and funds is still taken out, I can't change address

If you are receiving such a high amount daily, you might consider buying a hardware wallet.
This way an attacker would have no chance to get access to your coins or private keys.

Until then, you might install a wallet on an offline-machine (e.g. electrum on bootale USB linux distro) and receive your payments there.
And definitely do what Lucius said and run a malware scan.

Did you ever give anyone access to your account? And is the bitcoin address one that is provided by Blockchain, or is it an address that you've imported into your account? If it's a Blockchain-issued address, why not contact them directly with your issue?

https://support.blockchain.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

If you've changed your password and enabled 2FA and the issue is still happening, then they (Blockchain) should be able to help you further secure your account. Or you've imported an address to your account that someone else has access to.

Either way, keep us updated with the progress of this! Good luck.

I have contacted them, but they take time to reply , I will loss more BTC.

I feel like we're not getting the full story here... You're talking about investing in a mining firm in 2013,but over the last 24 hours this address was funded 14 times... At first glance, it looks like over the last 24 hours, this address received ~30 BTC (i didn't take the effort of counting the total value, but it's certainly more than the 6 BTC you were talking about)

I don't see how a mining firm would find 14 blocks a day and would be able to pay you ~30BTC on top of their mining costs at this point in time.

Are you sure you're not just a victim of a scam? Were you ever able to spend any of these funds in the past? It's possible a scammer just fed you a wallet with a watch-only address to keep you happy back in 2013 while in reality you were watching transaction from a big exchange, a gambling site or a mixing service?

Hahaha, I invested in 7 different mining firm , I get paid everyday

OK, 7 different companies might explain the income, but the question still remains: were you ever able to spend any of those funds in the past, are you sure you had full controll over this wallet?
Also, i really fail to understand why none of these 7 companies would allow you to change your withdrawal address... Seems like a very logical question to ask them.

At any rate, i'd consider this wallet to be compromised. I would focus on getting an uncompromised (hardware, paper or airgapped) wallet and focus my energy on convincing those 7 companies to change the withdrawal address... I don't think there's a lot of other things you can do at this point.

I would also urge you to file an official police report... Thefth of 6 BTC/day is something serious... If your local authorities are at least the slightest bit competent, they should realise that the daily thefth of ~$45.000 is something they can not ignore.

EDIT: like i said in your other topic discussing the same problem:

after some further digging, i found that this address is part of this wallet: https://www.walletexplorer.com/wallet/Huobi.com-2
It's part of Huobi.com's hot wallet. So if your story is legit, you were scammed by a scammer who gave you a watch-only wallet monitoring an address belonging to an exchange to keep you happy while they robbed you.

I think something is wrong in your story, you get pay every day but you do not have access to that coins because they are move from address you claim it is your before you can spent them? I would not consider this situation funny in any way, but it does not seem to be a problem for you...

Also I notice that you ask for donation in your signature, for such a rich man it does not make sense...

Hahaha, I just forward a message my friend sent to me here, I am not rich myself am just a freelancer, lol
But he gave me full access to his wallet including the 12 word phrase to see if I can help him , I discovered that the BTC enters the wallet, he even receives confirmation email from blockchain.info but it doesn't reflect in balance.

Here is the prove that funds enters wallet https://prnt.sc/jsgyjl

Given that he gave you his private seed, that's your answer already. The address isn't issued by Blockchain, as they don't provide a seed with their addresses. This means that the address that your friend is using was issued by whoever is in charge of the mining operations... It's undoubtedly a scam, and as @mocacino indicated, this is likely a watch-only address. Is your friend able to change his payment address? I'd hate for you to be the bearer of bad news, but you should let your friend know that he's been scammed...

Blockchain.info provides 12 words mnemonics and that's what he gave me , including the wallet identifier and password

Please, do yourself a favor and store the BTC somewhere else not online.

At best, send them to a paperwallet/brainwallet address.
https://walletgenerator.net/
https://brainwalletx.github.io/

No one should use online wallets no matter what, unless they need them for instant trading. In general: If someone else but you has access to your privkey, consider your BTC being or getting stolen.

So you are either extremely foolish with your coins or you don't tell the truth.

That's not the solution am looking for, the mining firm was given a particular address and coin will always be sent to that address, can I take the address offline?

Is it your address or owned by "a friend"? I'm starting to think you're just trolling, ignoring the important questions like "did you ever manage to withdraw from that address"?

I'm also curious to see why your seven different 2013 mining operations only started paying you a few weeks ago.

[sam2014]

@mocacino was right, its a watch-only address, I just saw that too, I have told him to contact the mining firm immediately , thank you guys for the help.
