Local Bitcoin account was hacked

[Ticalinda21]

I was new using the platform! Somebody hacked my account (or my cellphone) because I only logged in with it, and transferred my BTC. I contacted the Customer service but they told me transfer BTC are not refundable.
This are the address they use:

Sorry for your loss OP, but there is little anyone on this forum is going to be able to do. The best you can do is to open a police report, but for the sum of a few hundred dollars they are unlikely to be any help. As support have said, the transactions are confirmed and therefore irreversible.

More importantly right now is to figure out how your account was accessed and to secure any other accounts you have. Reset your passwords, particularly on the email address associated with your LocalBitcoins account. Enable 2FA on everything. Perform full virus and malware scans on your devices.

Were those the only assets you kept on that device? If no, then you should take necessary precaution to prevent further loss. Preferably move all your funds to a more secure device while you investigate the source of the breach and take measures (given above) to prevent such repeating.
Sent bitcoins cannot be reversed and they would have included a clause in their ToS indemnifying them from any hack from your end.

Very little can be gotten from an address besides the details of all transactions. You can check this out on a block explorer like https://blockchair.com/

Oh that is really a problem OP, first and foremost you are new to that platform and for sure you were not able to set up any two way authenticator for as an added security feature in every exchanges or wallet. This somehow can help the hacker getting hard on hacking or transferring your btc in your wallet. Second bitcoin transfer are irreversible. There is no way the transaction to be undone but you can still trace the btc wallet address being use by the hacker and if possible you can identify the one owning that btc address. Try to search the btc address for the possibility that the owner of that btc address is somewhere here to be found in this forum. Third, you will just have nothing to do but accept the loss. This is somehow difficult to get back your money so one should be careful in holding btc. Others are doing it offline like having a hardware wallet but the problem is that other hardware wallet are not for sale which you should buy before using or download it.

Some people don't set up 2FA for their accounts or set up 2FA with SMS code that is terrible because of unstable operation of SMS code verification service or sim swap attacks. [BEWARE] Sim Port Attack.
2FA, in my opinion, by default is for applications. I have never chosen SMS code as the way to secure my account.

Attackers can also send phishing links to email and people can get trapped by log in their accounts on phishing sites, hence all account information will be stolen and funds gone consequently.

OP, asides doing everything mentioned by the users above, kindly also read this topic started by coolcryptovator, so you don't be a victim of second scam, losing more therefore, also avoid any user offering the service to you to get your funds back, if you receive any pm of such, make sure you report it; sorry for your loss btw.

[Peanutswar]

It's too hard to recover your funds right now because the responsibility is all yours but still it's already happening. Feel sad about you OP this is a new lesson to your right now it's better to have a lot of verification to your account so you can avoid getting access easily it is better to secure your devices next time.

We cannot help you to recover but still you can use

Code:

blockchain.info

For the transaction made by your account.

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general aren't something like banks whereas when you get scammed, you just call customer support to reverse your transaction. In Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, you will be totally responsible for your own funds security. All you can do now is research and study about securing your funds, if you still want to continue holding bitcoin/crypto.

[Shimmiry]

No one here that can bring your bitcoins back. Feel sad to your loss, you should be more careful next time.
Do not store your keys online. Use paperwallets if you can.
Also, use all the security features of your wallet/exchange. 

If you wish to continue bringing back your loss funds, as what have been said above, report it to the authorities, they might be a good help to you upon tracing your loss funds.

[bob123]

If your mobile is indeed compromised, chances are high that it still is.

Unfortunately there is no way for your to get your BTC back.
However, you should definitely find out how that happened. Was your smartphone compromised, your email account, easy password, ...
Your BTC are gone, but there might be other sensitive data which should be checked (e.g. other accounts, CC, .. ), depending on what data you have stored on your mobile.

[Assface16678]

Sorry for your lose OP and according to the statement you gave us you cannot now back your funds because it's already transferred into the other account or wallet address still one of the best things is to ware about this kind of situations first is make a report on this so you can immediately take an action.

If your account is connected to your mobile device at the same time it consists of emails, password, username and more confidential information this can be used to you and get your information to make easier access to all of your wallets it's better to keep safe to have a 2FA and other security to avoid intruders stop giving some trouble and problem to us.

[dondonk]

Sorry friends can't help, maybe this is a lesson for us to pay more attention to the security of the wallets we use. adding 2 factor authentication (2fa) is a good step in securing the wallet.

[Findingnemo]

If someone don't want to lose their money as Op did, better turn on Login Guard and 2FA authentication on the security page of your profile on Localbitcoin.com

And also you can keep watching for the login attempts made on the log page to find someone is try to get into your account, if you see many failed login the change your passwords to new one and also turn on every security feature in it.

This is based on your own investigation and let's say you already have screwed up by not getting relevant information on site or platform before you invest in. I bet this will serve as a lesson for you to study (research) before you give out your information online or probably using your money to gamble if it will be taken or not taken.

Next time, read the OP before replying with your generic and useless statements.
Localbitcoins is a website to trade BTC P2P. This topic has nothing to do with investing into scam projects or gambling.

The problem here was the (missing) security of the device (smart phone) and not the missing investigations before investing into scams.

[AniviaBtc]

This scenarios are the reason why bitcoin is having a bad reputation to some other countries and community. They found out that most of the news about hacking and scamming are related to cryptocurrency especially bitcoin. We just need to become more extra careful and as soon as possible increase our security when we are accessing our bitcoin.

This is really bad that it happened to you, I also felt sorry for your lost and I hope that you've learned so much on that problem that you've encountered with bitcoin.

[Latviand]

It is really less likely to retrieve all of the losses on your account.

There's no undo in bitcoin transaction and you need to accept your mistake and try to find out where you are lacking of.

Probably, security and safety is not your priority that time and now that you've noticed that bitcoin is prone to scam, you should improve it. Local bitcoin are not easy to earn especially that its price is volatile, it is not that easy to make it as an asset.

So, as soon as possible, be mindful of those hacks and scams that are circulating in your environment, in the device, and in the platform that you are accessing.

More importantly right now is to figure out how your account was accessed and to secure any other accounts you have. Reset your passwords, particularly on the email address associated with your LocalBitcoins account. Enable 2FA on everything. Perform full virus and malware scans on your devices.

This is very important, to not make same mistake twice.
Hope you didnt lost much. Keep it safe and learn about computers/security.
There are great youtube vids about it.

2FA should be activated before Bitcoin is sent to a website, not after. Activating it after can already be too late.

Second bitcoin transfer are irreversible. There is no way the transaction to be undone but you can still trace the btc wallet address being use by the hacker and if possible you can identify the one owning that btc address. Try to search the btc address for the possibility that the owner of that btc address is somewhere here to be found in this forum.

That wont do much. Lets say he identifies the address to belong to a member here. What is he going to do about it? Best case scenario is the member gets tagged. The likelihood that he will get his money back doesn't improve. The user wont get banned because admins on BT don't get involved in scams.

Well, that's the sad reality. How I wished scammers could easily be caught by the authorities but the whole process and tracing just make things complicated, not to mention not viable especially if the perpetrator is from another country.
