Hope the wallet you're referring to is not online wallet? Stay away from wallets without private keys and passphrase ,if you want to hold your coins offline your best bet is paper wallets ,they works best ,totally out of preying eyes or hacking and stay away from spam emails ,its phishing ,it's for luring victims to drop details of there wallets .

One of my friends told me that if telegram chat is left open ; hackers can attack using telegram.  Is it true?
In fact, it's impossible, but I advice to check which ports are closed and which ones are open. Find information about it in the search.

I think that you need to track the history of visits at least a week. I can advise you to download a mini antivirus, for example, Dr.Web CureIt or Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool (it helped me get rid of a virus that did not see the base antivirus). In addition, install a known basic antivirus, in which there is protection against phishing. And more, use the Chrome WEb Defender plugin (warns you about going to the phishing website). Be careful and never go to mywallet through a search. Make a bookmark https://www.myetherwallet.com/.

your words are valuable for me friend.  Thanks.  Actually I was satisfied with the protection and secrecy I was maintaining.  But not studying deeply about security was my fault.

Can you give us more information? What account was hacked? What did you do? I'm pretty sure Etherscan(if you're referring to https://etherscan.io/) was never a wallet service, only a blockchain explorer to trace wallets and transactions.

Actually I have never done trade.  As usual I worked for bounties.  But in the night system was not allowing me to shut down the computer; that was only the difference yesterday.  In the morning when I opened my computer and then only checked coins received from several ICOs were transferred.
the same experience as I experienced, but somehow the lost can not come back again, because for MEW we have to keep or keep our private key, and not carelessly enter our private key, I think this case has a lot of corruption

The first thing I want to say to you is never to let theft happen again for the future. I think small mistakes must be really and avoid, to anticipate hackers' accounts that roam. Try to be more careful, alert and do not rush into the site. Be patient and don't give up with this incident. MAKE THIS EXPERIENCE LAST AND AS YOUR BEST TEACHER !!

I am very sad about what you experience, but there will be no way to return your stolen coins, most likely you have visited phishing sites and hackers have stolen your private key.

Its a pity and this is a sad situation. Maybe, someone accessed your wallet through a phishing link.

Things you need to do to keep your account safe

Do not click on phishing links
Bookmark myetherwallet on your computer
Always use 2fa for all your accounts including gmail

Be more careful and apply caution

So sorry to hear about that. Perhaps you were phished or probably careless with your private keys or your password was unsecured. Always look out for phishing sites and try as much as possible to use 2FA whenever you can.

I think ETH wallet will not be easily stolen unless you expose personal information or your computer has been compromised. You have to remember that this is a battlefield and there will be hundreds of people wanting to break into your wallet.

My advice is that you have to make a new wallet and save your private key so that no one can steal it. After that, be careful with phishing sites because it is very dangerous and use anti-virus on your computer. And another one, you can use Hardware wallets like trezor and eWallet.

You will not be able to return your money that has been taken by the hacker, all you can do is to create a new wallet, and keep your private key confidential.
being alert to efforts to prevent wallet hacking is the safest way to keep your funds from being lost
because crypto's assets are decentralized, where everything that has been sent is impossible to return
make this your experience, and of course in every experience there are lessons that you can get

my etherscan (MyEtherwallet) was hacked coins stolen; little confused and sad;
Nowadays, a lot of people have been hacked and hacked into their wallets. I think you should buy a hard wallet to protect your tokens. The Ledger Nano S is just $ 150 and you have the best safe in the world and no hacker can penetrate.

Thanks; I think you must have been using it and must be satisfied about it's working. Sure I am planning to buy one shortly.

I'm very sorry for you, even if there was a small amount, it's still not pleasant that you have something stolen. I advise you to forget about it, you can not do anything, unfortunately. Just next time be careful when clicking on links
