Also concerned about you, the most important rule when you are online in the virtual world is don't arbitrarily download files because hackers have prepared their tricks to steal from someone through the internet, especially cryptocurrency wallet originating from an unclear source and pornographic films because hackers usually inject their viruses into files in the film. I hope this will be a lesson for you and we all to be more careful.

what can I do to stop it I have no evidence
the hacker's address is 0xEEBbC9888fD8Ec5dFC267a915664780c8fa66426
My address is 0xd125a58b966dc8bdf10489fd910ca929934a0dbc
It happened in Jun 6th
I guess I download a virus altcoin wallet and the hacker found my private key in my desktop
If he has taking or transferred out your valuable coins already, then there's really nothing we can do. Please take this as a lesson and store your private keys offline and not online especially without 2fA else you run a risk of hack

I hope this incident will not be the reason for you to stay away from cryptocurrencies and be totally discouraged by it rather, let that experience teach you to observed best security practices to further safeguard your digital assets. Do learn from it. Indeed! He would not asked if he’s aware of the reason, he’s probably new to coin security, I also experienced losing some coins before learning how to keep my assets secured. Experience is a great teacher, indeed.

this is a bad experience. everyone does not want to experience this and always strives for their assets to be safe. This thread should give tips so that this incident does not happen to other members. not just bullshit. The OP must go and lament the misfortune

I thought apple store is safe or not? I am considering change a iphone s
I don't see you tell us wallet you has been downloaded, you only said hacker was hacked your eth but don't give us full information for helping you. so right now we can only watching your address : https://etherscan.io/address/0xEEBbC9888fD8Ec5dFC267a915664780c8fa66426 on blockchain without do anything.

you better make a new wallet and give away your old wallet. if there is still a chance, move the token or coin in the old wallet to the new wallet. you should use a hardware wallet such as nano ledger for example.

This is so sad, but there isn't anything you can do to stop it, the best option is to get a new wallet and store the private key safely.
Pls what wallet did you download so we don't fall victim.

If your error is due to downloading an application that you think is a virus, I think the antivirus on your computer should work (if any) But according to it seems you have been wrong in giving your private key to a website or to someone

Nothing you can do to save your coin/token from that ethereum wallet. But to prevent that hacker to hacking your wallet for the next , you can start to scanning your computer / pc using antivirus. Some hacker using malware and another virus to collecting their target data.

since its stolen there's nothing we can do about it because its already stolen . Next time try to use metamask for more security and always erase cache before shutting down the pc to avoid phishing schemes

yes, this is the main issue I think companies have to work how to make the wallet system much stronger and secure so that people feel safe to store their funds.

This is really traumatic, after earning or buying some coins, only for it to be hacked, I feel your pains, but the truth is nothing can be done, just move on but try to be safer so as not to fall victim again.

what can I do to stop it
There's nothing you can do once it has happened. But obviously there are steps you can take to prevent it happening again: - Don't use that wallet again
- Run anti-virus checks on your computer to clear out any malicious software
- Run anti-virus checks on everything you download
- Store your private key somewhere else, not on the same computer

Once the hacker has control over your private keys sadly there's nothing can be done after that. If the amount you lost is substantial than all you can do is involve the authorities but I doubt they can be of any help as well because of the nature of cryptocurrency.

Let's really be careful when clicking on links, some links are specifically to hack into us. There is nothing to be done again now that the hacker has your private key, all you should do now is to start over but be very careful now.

Sad to hear, never store private keys in an insecure place. Also provided hacker's address can be any exchange address unless you are 100% sure about it.

My friend has lost a lot of ETH because his wallet was hacked, I think there is no other way to stop it because hackers in crypto are very difficult to track, create new wallets and provide double security is the choice that should be made.

Six months ago, I got a stiller. so he downloaded my keystore's from myetherwallet, pulled all the tokens and then even manipulated them, and I can not change anything - just watching )
