Sad news. And we are very sad for it. But the fact is that there is rampant incidents of hacking and scamming. But it seems no authorities are concerned about it. I have heard BiteBTC exchange is openly scamming traders out of thousands of dollars. But no action is taken against it so far. As for you, I think there is no way out unless authorities take some steps.
That is the reason why, we need to have a hardware wallet compared to storing in online wallets and or storing in exchanges which is not recommended, hacking is everywhere all over the web, and with that, we must be aware of it, that scammers, hackers and all others are working 24/7 to steal money from us, and we must keep it in our mind, we mindful of everything we download online.

You can only transfer all coins and tokens from this wallet to another one to protect you against the hacker, that is all. If your wallet is already clear, then you can only go to police and report the ETH address of the hacker, thats all, maybe in the future we will be able to recognize the hacker identity.

Too bad. You fell victim to one of the most common scams around here. Before installing any altcoin wallet, you need to scan the exe file with a reputed anti-virus software such as Kaspersky. If that is not possible, then you should at least read the reviews about the wallet. There are chances that users might have flagged it already for suspicious activity. Anyway, please be careful from now on.
yes, some people use everything to get money. they even use their skills to take profits from other people. honestly, before looking for the coins we want, we need to know everything about the coins, such as the concept, the team involved, and find out the truth. if it's real, you won't find any strangeness in it. other than that, I agree not to install anything on your PC that you have, and prioritize always scans it with updated antivirus. however, you need to do a check for your pc hard drive. always careful is the best way to avoid this risk. Some scammers use social engineering tricks for fooling the average people and take their earned altcoins. Before installing the third-party software to the pc checking the file with various antivirus scanning services will be a good step for protecting the crypto holdings. These type of malware software is used for the running electrum or other crypto wallets with an automated script bot that can transfer the BTC to the address of the attacker. Before joining the airdrop, the requirements should be carefully analyzed and the bounty hunter should avoid the airdrops-bounty campaigns that have the pre-instalment software requirement for receiving the reward.

there is currently no way to deal with hacking altcoin, and many cases that have happened before including myself have been hacked, one way to prevent it you have to make a new wallet, make this as a future lesson should be more careful
That's the way you have to take to make a new wallet and make security quite difficult to break. But there is no way in my opinion to re-take what you have from the hacker. you just have to let it go what has gone from you. yup! you are right. there is no way to take back what has been stolen from us. indeed we have to give up and good advice for us to make a new wallet. but even though we have made a new wallet, i think we still need to be vigilant and be careful when using it so that the same thing does not happen again.

There are some hacking incidents that i read before that they have recovered the funds that been stole by the hackers, those victims did seek some profesional help because the founds is large enough . smaller funds can be easily forgetable because they can be easily collected . but you shoudlnt give up easily , you must still do something tho .

Please name the wallet that you were using so that the rest of us can be protected from this awful scammer. Sorry to hear about your loss man, but this crypto world is really vast, and scammers or hackers can exploit this and then go uncaught.

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
What you can do now is nothing, but in the future you can prevent it to happen again, my style is that i store my coins in our local country exchanger, which is hard for international users to accessed it, which is low probability of being hacked, storing in international wallet is prone for hacking as all crypto users can hacked if they can find a method, or you were able to provide them such delicate details, next time be more aware of the files you downloaded. Yes, unfortunately, you can't find a hacker and also you can't go to the police because in many countries the transactions by cryptocurrencies are n't into law protection. You can only in the future divided your money into several wallets and be attentionally when you put your private information. Because hacker must know your private key and this helps him to hack money...be careful!

Sorry for your losses. Scammers give you a trick in many way that you can't even know. So don't be a greedy for some coin and before you download such kinda wallet please scan it.

At present it is still very difficult to make a report to the police regarding crypto assets. Indeed, to track we can, but to do a report we must have the right hacker identity

So sad this happened, there is really nothing that can be done, once your private key is with someone else, then your wallet is gone, all you can do now is create a new wallet and be mindful of phishy sites. Also try to keep your private keys safe.

I am also afraid that my Ledger wallet seed will be compromised because I uploaded it on cloud to avoid losing paper with backup words. Everything what is uploaded to the internet could be compromised.

Sorry about your loss.. One has to be really careful with wallet keys and details in this industry. You must guide them jealously like they hold a key to real life assets. Never enter your private keys in every site you see. Also, do not safe your private keys or details on online safes. The best storage is to write them down on a paper and keep it Safe.

if we want to save our private key its better to save in different device that we used to work in cryptocurrency market.now many hackers and programmer that create virus that have capability to steal our online data.and its accident must be experience for us.

the incident certainly will not be repeated again, Learning from mistakes is the key to the problem, if we already know the mistakes he made then they shouldn't be repeated, and for lost assets it is better to forget, because if it has been sent to another pallet it cannot be withdrawn anymore.

no one can stop if our wallet has been hacked ... and this is obviously because of an error that you made so that your wallet can be hacked. then there is nothing we can do but throw away the wallet then make a new wallet ... so you have to be more careful in looking after your wallet ... privatekey must be guarded carefully and carefully with the phsing link ...

Sorry about this mate, but there is nothing you can do because your private key is meant to be private only to you. Anyone accessing it means you directly or indirectly gave the person access and owing to the way ETH blockchain is built there is no way to get it back you only have to let go. I will implore you take adequate steps to ensure you secure your wallet keys and phrases at all cost, if possible write it down and hid so you won't be victim of virus attack again. Also, be mindful of the websites you visit.
