I don't know how I Explain my feelings. I Just lost all of my savings money. I was holding since January, I have been Holding to make again a good amount of Money. But at the end, my holding's output is, I lost everything because of my ETH wallet got hack! Almost 5K USD Stolen. All of my hard working money. I Don't know how can hacker hacked my wallet. Because I Kept very secure my private key, My friends are telling that hacker hacked my wallet by my email address. But how can someone hack only by an email address? I Got a security alert from Google that someone has your password after then I changed my password immediately. Then after some time, I was checking my wallet to check new Coin. And then I Shocked! I Just want to give up, can't think what should I do ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif) I am very sorry to hear that buddy. I once been hacked too. myetherwallet has been phished by the hacker. They were using public DNS hijacking. maybe you have been hacked because of this ? I want to ask you, when did you check your wallet token has gone ? i think there is nothing wrong if the hacker only know your email. The problem is, is there any private key or other information stored in your email ?

That does not make any sense, myetherwallet does not require email for you to access it because you do not use email to sign up so how can someone hack your wallet using your email? The only way that I would think that this was right is if you were referring to another wallet, which could be possible. That is why it is good to activate two factor authentication on your wallets. I am sorry that you lost your coins.

Many who Blowjob that hacked My Ether Wallet, but I believe that these people are to blame. You can't keep a secret key on your computer and everything will be fine

So sorry that your wallet got hacked. This is why we should always make sure that we have the maximum security on our wallets. That way we can be sure that our wallets are safe. If you are using myetherwallet you might want to migrate your wallet to metamask, I think they have an extension on their site to do so. That is the best way to protect your ether wallet.

It's the reason why number of person whom buy hardware wallet like Trezor or ledger nano is increasing really quickly ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . You should buy it to keep your crypto safe ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . Beside don't use VPN cause it's the most popular way for hacker to hack your wallet ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . You also should avoid using decentralized exchange which require you to enter your wallet Private key like ETD, Forkdelta or IDEX, if you wanna use, you should create a new wallet and send token to. wallet hardware is one of the safest wallets to store our crypto assets, but in terms of price is very expensive, therefore many of the crypto holders rarely use this type of wallet, but when they think their assets are much more meaningful than expensive wallet prices , they will definitely buy for the security of their assets.

You should not worry and continue to work and not make more mistakes, most likely the fact that you entered data on the scammer's website

So sorry, but here are a few additional tips to keep your hot wallet more secure in the feature: 1. Never store your private key or json file on google drive or any other cloud storage
2. Never use your gmail account password as your wallet account.
3. Bookmark your wallet address on your prefered browser on your device. Never click on hot links to your wallet address from untrested sources such as emails and other webpages
4. Avoid bounty campaigns and airdrops that asks you to verify your wallet address via direct link. You might be phished.
5. It is safer to check your token balance via etherscan.io and not by logging into your wallet often. You might compromise your security in the process
6. Never root your android device if you use one. Doing so would render most google security features ineffective.
Nevertheless, no measure is as safe as using a hard wallet such as Trezor.

I'm sorry, because at the same time I was stolen by about 13 ETH and I understand what feelings you are experiencing. The main thing is not to despair and to continue to work, for us this is a new experience and I think each of us has learned some lesson, try to protect your wallets and be more attentive, and you will definitely get bonuses.

You don't need to do that, just visit mycrypto.com and then tries to dowload the offline client and you can create an offline transaction through use it. It's not safe anymore to use the online wallet such as MEW and i have no any problem by used mycrypto offline client to open or send my money to others. Trezor is safe but it will cost you more and nano ledger is the worst hardware wallet ever.

sorry for your lost but i am just wondering how your myetherwallet may be hacked. you said you got a mail through google. myetherwallet do not use email. however if you have your private key store in your mail or any of the file from the myetherwallet saved inside your mail it may be through that. I will also suggest you download and install malwarebyte antivirus because i have experience so many walmare targeted at crypto hubbyist like us. this malware can steal files from you system and can also use pc to mine crypto with your consent. coinminer virus is one of them

Hackers can do in various ways it may be true that in your friends say hackers use mail to hack into your wallet because hackers can only send fake wallets in your email and accidentally open them, so we need to be more thorough in opening some sites, especially the MEW wallet is very vulnerable and if necessary start now start to secure your account starting from the device you use.

That is quite painful if it is true. I woukd have asked if you usually participate in airdrop, because most times, these hackers lure airdrop participants more into clicking on phishing sites sent to them. Although, your data cannot retrieved, but finding your phone back is better.

The thing comes to my mind is that you do able to store up your Privatekeys on emails drafts or any mails which contains such keys and been find out by the hacker and logged in presuming that there would be a balance and viola he stole of your balance. Sad to hear on your loss.

I know how it feels because i am also a victim of hacking. That is why i am now very careful when using Myetherwallet. If i were you i would use metamask as this is very safe from hackers.

that's a bad news. what can be done now is remain optimistic and more careful in the future. we know that the world of cryptocurrency is full of risks, if we neglect then it will be fatal. this experience can be used as learning for the future to be more careful.
