Friends!!! Hacker stole all tokens those who recently received 0.05 ETH urgently check your wallets, withdraw all the tokens but firstly ETH !!!
Still need to describe in more detail the essence of what was happening. I read the topic and all the comments and did not understand about what circumstances and why the hacker sent out 0.05 ETH and how then the wallet that ETH came to became vulnerable. Still, somehow informed about the secret key? Or was the hacker somehow entering the account of the person who received the ethereum? Just curious what tricks are invented by scammers.

If you notice any suspicious ETH amounts have arrived in your wallet unexplained you might've been phished so just move your tokens to a new wallet immediately (if they are still there)
Use metamask or a hardware wallet to protect your private keys

I don't think i really get what you're point to, i tried to but just couldn't. Where did you guys receive the 0.05eth? Was it free or you really worked for it in a sort of bounty or airdrop. Another thing is that I don't think anyone can hack your eth wallet unless they've a sort of your PK. Maybe you have been lured into what you have carelessly gave your PK

This is true. A few of my friends have received 0.05 ETH a few days ago and yesterday their account has been hacked and moved tokens as well as ETH to another address. But how can a hacker do that? There are holes in the security of MEW?

I still don't really think it's possible for any hacker to take our fund from our wallet, if they don't have our private key. If that really are happened, the best possibilities would be the that phished.

I don’t understand how this can happen if you just received coins sent from someone. I think this can only happen if your private key is known by the sender. However, only receiving coins doesn’t make your private key exposed to the sender.

Only transaction to another address will not help to steal the assets, I guess you understand it. This is only amount to pay gas but all those addresses - their private keys were stolen before of course. And I don't understand why did you suggest to transfer all eth and only then transfer your tokens, without eth

I think you got panic for whatever happened with your ethereum in your wallet. Your given information will result to many people getting panic like you. Kindly give us a complete and clear information,so that everyone can be informed for whatever that can be risk to their stored ethereum on their wallets.

Lol, how could you transfer your token if you do not have Eth because you first transfer Eth instead of token, how about the GAS? It is impossible for you to hack if you only give an address of Eth, not your private key, oh common just a simple common sense mate. I never heard before that you only are given an address wallet and make a lead you of being hacked.

I think you need to be serious about where you send your data from your wallet, and do not register on suspicious sites

Most likely you did something wrong, because I doubt that you can climb into any wallet without a private key!

There are holes in the security of MEW? As a 'member' of this forum i'm more inclined to believe you that this has happened. I can't fathom as to how this actually happened, all i can guess is that he managed to exploit a security hole in the ethereum platform via some sort of hacked smart contract, or it was checking to see if a specific token was there that acted like a trojan virus

I can't believe it, I doubt, how did the hacker steal your coin? I think your mobile device or computer has been monitored by hackers, otherwise hackers will steal your coins. Check the address when you raise the coin!

Although I do not really understand your message because I know that as long as your private information are not disclosed to a third party and your private key is safe, there is no way your funds can be tampered with because it is the private key that you will use to access your account. But anyway, thanks for taking time to alert everyone about this.

0.05 ETH were sent to us in order to have a gas at the withdraw of our tokens! In order to prevent the withdrawal it is necessary to deduce all ETH, because the bot deals with transactions and you can not manually be faster than it!

is this a security problem of mem or of eth itself? either way, it sounds like for me as if no address is safe anymore.
