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 Oh.. That's very disappointing situation.. You know sometimes i think if keeping your money too long is really a good idea... Because today lots of hackers and scammers are just waiting for us... It is not so much advisable that we will keep our money or we will hold our token for too long... Our wallet is not really secure today so as much as possible if you can sell your token immediately is much better than holding it...

It's very sad to hear this. But how did it happen? Maybe you were transferred to a fake site? I very often said that it's best to use the local version of MEW, which you can tell from their GitHub, do it and you will avoid unnecessary checking.

I Just want to give up, can't think what should I do After this lesson you should buy Ledger Nano S to secure your property better. I always advise people to use this wallet because this is one of the best wallets and no one can attack and it can connect directly to MEW. In your case, I have met so many and I advise you to listen to the advice of others

I don't know how it's possible to hack MyEtherWallet by using your e-mail. In any case, it's better to make your e-mail security settings more strong via SMS or calls, not simply passwords.

I Just want to give up, can't think what should I do I thinks,those who sending you email are not real from google website,those are the phishing website thats acts from the google are the fake one's,thats why in my own idea i distribute my different crypto coins to different MEW wallet,so that when there's someone,who interest hacked my wallet only one kinds of altcoins they can get,because as of now i cannot afford to buy a ledger nano or trezor edge,and mostly i must aware now,those phising site's,who want to hacked our asset.

SOmetimes we are too careless that we almost dont notice so later you have to make sure and double check first before you open or key in your private key in some site because there are so many hackers today and usualy use a phishing site’s.

Only that way to help you not make the same mistake twice.

The most safiest way to hold your crypto is use hardware wallets such as ledger nano, trezor, etc.
Right! Hardware wallet is the best solution at the moment, it strongly protects from intruders!

I never experience this. But my friend told me to secure my account in MEW because he experieced hacking his account. He lost the tokens he earned from bounties. And it is very hard for him to move on.

It's very sad that I heard it, I hope you keep trying to be the best. You must create your strong Email password and do not save private keys in online software.
You can save it in an offline place, such as hard drive and flashdisk.
It's a terrible shame for you, you always hear of hacks but it's only a reality when it happens to you! PLEASE get a hardware wallet if you decide to invest again, otherwise you're playing a game of risk. Take note hodlers! Please keep your funds safe.

I have experienced this thrice. And finally learned my lesson. I tried switching to metamask, and so far, my tokens are still there. Hopefully its secured than MEW

It is really sad to know about your loss... I am sorry to say that you will not get that money back now but you can earn it back. Also please use hardware wallet to keep your coins. I think they may have your json file on your Gmail and when you change your password they hacked your password as well.may be by doing this they hacked your wallet.

It`s sorry to read such stories, but it`s a life... Try to make lessons and work harder to get higher earnings. About e-mail, I think you entered your private key on phishing site. There are so much stories! now we have one new - someone send emails like bountymanager and ask to send "verification transaction" through phishing website.

I Just want to give up, can't think what should I do most likely you have phishing, when you access via your e-mail, you have entered the hacking phishing mode, the other option is you use google dns, which has been hacked. so I don't think you can do anything but surrender. and try to safeguard your security from viruses and phishing

I have just yesterday at the friend stole all the tokens and Ethereum wallet. Perhaps when somewhere has exposed your private key, but in the last days very often there are reports of hacking MEW. I have a Ledger and I'm not very worried, but the situation is alarming.

But i think without you reveal your privatekey unless and until they cannot hack your wallet. You might incorrectly used any pissing website. this is many reason for hacking.

I was also a victim of this but then I feel that hardware wallet is the only solution to secure your hard-earned coins as no infiltration is possible in any hardware wallet. Always secure your mail first and then all your keys and passwords as sometimes hackers have access of your email and they got your many details from your mail. Use the google authenticator as that is also a very secure tool for safe logins.

It's very sad, I feel for you. Unfortunately, the reality is that all your savings, even in cryptocurrencies, should be stored under ten locks.

It's awful! I'm sorry about what happened to you. This wallet is very popular and we all have to be very careful and cautious! Maybe one day you went to a phishing site. Because as I recall, there's no direct connection between the mail and the wallet.
