The possibility of returning the money by the police is very weak. What happened was painful to me. of course i setup anew clean OS .
I recommend you to move from Windows to Linux and buy a Hardware Wallet (preferably Trezor/Ledger as they've been tested and used for a long time already and had their security proven). Windows is less safe and has crappy privacy. If you want to feel safer, learn to use Linux and move to it. It's a hard lesson you had to learn but move on. My recoveries always overcame the losses.

Never use these online wallets, always use a wallet which u download and where u hold the privat key / seed. Make sure to create your wallet offline so risk to get hacked is way smaller.

Do you think the OP would have avoided what had happened to him if he is been using Linux by any chance? He was using 2FA via SMS, it is possible that the hacker obtained his verification information using the SIM swap technique. Regardless of OS and wallet type, some users are simply not ready to be their own bank. Regarding hardware wallets, I wrote my opinion in a previous post.

With that amount you could easily have bought a hardware wallet to secure however its to late for that. Consider that a big lesson in your life and move on, next time you already knew what to do. Listen to good advices since your not alone in that situation.

Sorry to hear this mate, I remember three wallets of mine got hacked at some point in time. One thing I have realized is that we need to be careful on some sites that we visit especially Torrents. Once I started accessing that site myI think I downloaded a malware alongside a download file. My pc contained my private keys.

The OP might have mistakenly reveal some vital information regarding his wallet unknowingly at the mercy of hackers, Hackers had been more sophisticated in recent times online wallet are always prone to hackers, the OP ought to have store such a huge amount of Bitcoin in a hardware.

As long as you use everything the wrong way, it obviously doesn't matter which OS or wallet you're using. But Linux is not as easy to learn & use as Windows is and ever since I moved from Windows to Linux, I have learned lots of important stuff about the way your behavior could put your PC at risk. Simply the fact that you have to learn terminal commands teaches you a lot. It was more of an eye opener for me and it's just a friendly advice for him to move on from the privacy-lacking Windows - could be an eye opener for him too! But I guess we're all different

That might be the case. But I have to say that blockchain wallet isn't among safest wallets, they had many breaches so far and it's not very wise to keep coins there. However, I agree that hacker's attacks are getting more and more sophisticated and security it's hard to keep.

A few times ago I read this article and I think it can be made an excuse to your case https://www.cybereason.com/blog/eventbot-a-new-mobile-banking-trojan-is-bornBe carefull when you download an application from any unknown site, especially if you save it to your phone. This things should be noticed by all crypto user because we store our money on the internet which something can be happened if we let our guard down. Regardless to your fund, you may need to give that up.

There is nothing you can do, even though it feels heavy just let it go. Because bitcoin transactions cannot be canceled or be reversed, make this learning be more careful about what bitcoin you have. You should buy a hardware wallet, it will make your bitcoin safer. And most important now clean the OS and browser that you use.

Ouch, sorry to hear that this has happened to you. Looks like the coins haven't been moved yet. All you can do is just keep on tracking where the funds go until it goes through a mixer (and high chances it will) where you no longer will be able to know where your coins are. Sadly, this is why most of the people suggests not to use online wallets. But then again, if it was your computer that was infected, so I guess its your fault since you failed to keep your computer clean! Hope you learned a valuable lesson.

~ can any one help me what i do !! this coins is all i have .
I am sorry about this incident. My blockchain wallet has been hacked, even though I have provided double security, 2FA, email verification, etc. The dam* hacker managed to get a crack and easily move my BTC. Not as much as you have, only 0.003 BTC, but that means a lot because I will use it to pay for rent. Be patient, this valuable lesson for you. The next time you save a lot of assets, choose a safer wallet, such as a hardware wallet, there are many products to choose from, for example, Ledger Nano. The cost you spend is comparable to the security guarantee you get. Follow the advice of experienced members above, hopefully, you will get a better chance soon

Yup, you were cleaned out good... If you did not make that transaction, your funds are gone.
Phishing, malware (on your pc or a script within your browser), a vulnerability (os, browser) or unsafe storage of your credentials are usually the problem.
The thief's transaction is confirmed, so whatever somebody tells you, this means the thefth is irreversible. You can go to the police, but usually they won't even know where to start. The only thing you can do is look at this thefth as an expensive lesson: buy a decent hardware wallet and move on... Sorry to be the barer of bad news
Indeed, I am totally agree with you. I am also victim of stolen myetherwallet approximately 55 day ago. I couldn't do any thing just watched that scammer's transactions on myehterwallet. unfortunately I had hardware wallet but didn't transfer my coins to it and I thought I am save but I was wrong. Anyway if you have more than $1000 in your blockchain or any other online wallet I suggest should buy hardware wallet and transfer them immediately. Save all you crypto...

really bad that you lost much amount of money in btc but seems you must did some mistakes to use online wallet
I used block chain wallet from 6 years and still not got any issue
as mostly keep small parts of coins in many different wallet ids and never keep all coins in one wallet
moreover never download any suspicious software or male-ware etc in that pc using for block chain wallet
may be you received some fake email from block chain and you click on link inside email which take you to fake block chain website and as soon you put your password in fake website, scammer got info and just able to transferred all your coins
online wallet can be use in safe way but always be careful and never download any files or malware or never use NON secure browser and always keep coins in parts in many different wallets

True. No comment here Some are actually so naive that they are fooled in a completely bizarre way. Let's say someone calls and introduced himself as an employee of your bank, asking that you provide your bank card+PIN because they need to check something. Some people actually fall for that, so we are still a long way from saying that people know how to protect their digital information, specifically what is related to crypto.
What wallet did you use?
He used a special wallet where you just say the magic word and all the BTC move from one address to another - someone unfortunately learned that magic word Seriously, why don't you read the OP if you are interested in this information

So you guys that read this thread I hope you all started to but hardware wallet now! Hardware wallet is a bit expensive but your money is totally safe there! All of the online wallets can be hack by hackers anytime, and it's likely to happen if you are careless. Start investing now on hardware wallet! I hope this would be a lesson to everyone.

Hello Dear Friends I was stolen and my funds go to this address 1EvVR9JcUGvP2S9bHKvs7EzkoeXR12NTyS where i make high security by my Personal Email and Two-Step Verification and Backup Phrase . what i do now ?? summary in this link https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/eeef9344f2880946b28062ebabad119896e2fc3ff326dc85bdf745ad35c653dcI don't make any withdrawal in day where I stolen 2020-04-10 10:33 and I don't know how my fund transfered automatically to this address 1EvVR9JcUGvP2S9bHKvs7EzkoeXR12NTyS iam really amazed by what happened . Please find me a solution the stolen coins take 1.5 minutes between login and stolen my coins . i setup anew windows and maked anew blockchain wallet and I hope from any one here to find a solution and send me the stolen fund ( 0.39070099 BTC ) to this new address 1AuNxTY5xBgW6WppRx5U3zSXoAEBo66dg6 Thanks for your efforts with me . pictures of my login to the account and stolen funds : https://5zznly.com/d/37VZh_1.pnghttps://5zznly.com/d/Q4wOu_2.pngcan any one help me what i do !! this coins is all i have . You can't do a thing to it already as it was already confirmed and transferred, what you can do right now is to make sure that it will not happen again. Install a firewall and be careful with the fishing emails or address so you can avoid this to happen again. It will be good also if you can drop what wallet you are using right now because if you are using a local exchange then you can email the support maybe they can do something about it. Make sure that you safely put your private keys and no one should know about it aside from you, don't also save your private keys in online so you can lessen the chance that your private keys to be exposed.

Unfortunately, your funds can't be turned back. And a tip for you - never use hot wallets for storing big amounts of crypto. Just spend $50-100 on a hardware wallet, and no one will steal your Bitcoins again.

Sorry son, the coin is forever gone except the hacker changes his mind. Many users of blockchain wallet have complained about stolen funds even with 2FA. I hope your 2FA is not SMS based but Google authenticator? You need to to clean up your system for possibel virus and void telling people what you do online, and safely surf the internet.
