Coins Stolen from my QT Wallet

[Rawted]

BTW, my Malwarebytes   sometimes block outgoing connections originated from Qt Client 0.8.6, for example:
IP-BLOCK   93.115.84.122 (Type: outgoing, Port: 56233, Process: bitcoin-qt.exe)

If anyone knows about this, please share your knowledge.
Thanks!

Do you have a Mac? There's a bitcoin stealing trojan out there: http://www.securemac.com/CoinThief-BitCoin-Trojan-Horse-MacOSX.php. I'm sorry to hear about your loss, man.

PC Windows 8

Possible Malware in Maxcoin Clients that I had downloaded.

But still don't understand that if Malware / Keyloggers were the reason. Theses were downloaded after the last time I had used (sent some bitcoins) my QT wallet password.

Is there still a risk even if your wallet is encrypted , I need to think of some better security.

Router is a BT HomeHub 5.

Will be rebuilding PC later today or tomorrow.

At lease KNC are keeping my other coins safe for me ;-) hope they haven't spent them on anything foolish.

Paper Wallets are the safest way to go, and they are actually much easier than any video or instructions out there show.


On your loss: Follow your money on the blockchain, and Google every wallet number until it links with a verified account, then present the info to the proper authority, which varies upon geographical location.

she can help you by using a new btc tracking algorithm she is developing.

Good luck.

If I followed it correctly, your coins seem to have gone to 1QB8Ds5KbGYBLQa5RyDQ2sVUeSKWf7qgkZ, which I believe is bitmain's. Looks like your stolen coins are being used to buy antminers.

Contact bitmain??

What make you think it is Bitmain? There is no evidence which shows Bitmain used this address, except if you know something which is far from Google search reach.

I found an indication the address is controlled by Bitmain:

Where do you get 3500 orders? I only see 1618 transactions in their main wallet and a bunch of them are from before the price dropped.
https://blockchain.info/da/address/1QB8Ds5KbGYBLQa5RyDQ2sVUeSKWf7qgkZ

Considering they had(have?) 400TH online and is supposed to ship out 500TH(rough estimate, I know) I think the odds of them running dry is kinda low - I don't think they would have their entire stock online. Even though around 100 new transactions have popped up during the last 24h...

Installed any random altcoin clients lately? Another member reporting that may be the culprit.

Is there a list of alt coin clients that could be the culprit ?

Thanks,

Let us know all of your alt coin clients you have installed becuase it seems one of them are a trojan.

The only Altcoin Clinets software that I have installed of Late.

Were CPUminer, Mined and QT wallet for Maxcoin. All of theses were downloaed from either github or via Twitter links on the Maxcoin release day.

No other software had been installed on my PC since I last used My Bitcoin QT wallet passs phrase to send a Transaction.

PC now rebuilt.

No answer to PM sent to Bitmain.

Big Lesson Learned. ;-)
