Hi Friends..


Yesterday, i got hacked on ,21st of May 2021, and is looking for anyone who can do something to get my funds back..

I actually installed a software, which started to blimp as a virus by my antivirus so i uninstalled it and after some time went to sleep.

So what happened is that, whoever got access to my computer through somekind of trojan, moved my HEX tokens worth 320usd and also my AWC tokens 723 which worth about 1100 usd. Details as under

1. HEX Tokens
my Ether wallet : 0x543ea9e8bbe1a2bbf0dceefd6783abf708789dde
Hackers wallet : 0x74de5d4fcbf63e00296fd95d33236b9794016631

Hash: 0xc756b603ab4797ac79b97c7d8e304a07aa90caab3276044b7784f8f44c481ea3

Tokens moved : 6849.7 HEX
Worth : 330 USD

2. AWC Tokens:

my wallet : 0xD96ED1c2CBD36630961606fd57c73c2d7817c68c
Hackers wallet : 0x0fa5e40d423b7b30edd99fc56520eadb552459d8

Hash : 0x5d6ece4d505331177dea8d6ffebd330fc6a9842b3c08fee1a51e9b360ecf4576

Tokens moved : 723 AWC
Worth : 723 x 1.46 = 1055 USD

There was a software by the name of Adobe acrobat reader of 13.2 GB, which somehow got installed automatically yesterday and i think it was this software which was not really acrobat as acrobat reader is not of 13.2 GB and also i never installed acrobat yesterday..

I haved checked his wallet address on etherscan and it shows that that address of the hacker is draining alot of wallets every second.

I don't know what to do, but thought that someone here may just b able to take out this hacker... Also i would like to know if there is anything i can do to secure my ether wallet as i cant change the keys on ethere and also the AWC wallet secure keys cant b changed..

(I was unable to find the right thread for this post.)

Thank you for warning. I think now there is no any way to recover your money back . I am feeling very sad for you.
Is there anyway to report this hacker? If anybody know please tell us we all will report his wallet.

As long as funds have moved out of your wallet and already confirmed in the blockchain, there is really nothing can be done to recover those funds, all you can do now is to secure your wallet or just delete that wallet and make a new wallet which will have a different private key, cus for the hacker to be able to move your funds, he must have gotten hold of your private keys and he might just be sitting there, waiting for your to send more funds to that wallet for him to steal, so just dump those wallets that's been hacked and make a new one, this time, try making a wallet on your mobile phone is you can't afford offline wallets like ledger and the rest, mobile wallets are more secure than pc wallets as pcs are more prone to virus and Trojan attacks. So sorry for your lost funds and also thank you too for warning others here.

Nothing can be done there. Happened to me too couple of years ago. Try not to be too sad about it and be more aware next time... Maybe using Linux for crypto would be better. I have double boot on my laptop since then.

Hi Friends..


Ledger Nano S costs 59 euros
https://shop.ledger.com/products/ledger-nano-s
This wallet will be enough for you for a few coins so as not to reinstall applications on the wallet, but better buy a Ledger Nano X.
I sympathize with you, but $ 1385 is not a big price to pay for a good lesson.

Software wallets are highly unreliable.

Thank you for warning us and sorry for nothing we can do. You could earn more money than you lost, take an experience for your future steps. If you have another wallet, then you shouldn't open it. Maybe you were visiting a phishing site, but you aren't safe anymore even if you move ETH from your wallet.

It would be nice to have more information from you.

For example, what system did you use, what antiviruses and similar programs were installed on it.

It would also be nice to see a log of actions performed on the device.

The only way for you to change your wallet. The hacker already owned your key and it's the worst thing to use again.
We can do nothing for your money consider the blockchain transaction was permanent as long as the tx already confirmed and it's irreversible. It seems like that the hacker was putting keylogger or malware.

If you got hacked there's no way to get the coins back, you have read about exchange hacking and it took them a lot of time to recover the funds and sometimes they cannot get all of them back and they spend thousands of dollars to trace the hackers, in your case I don't think you can do it, you'll have to spend thousands of dollars to get it back, in the first place where you got that software for awareness.

There’s nothing you can do to recover your funds, don’t use that compromised wallet anymore and create a new one. This will serve you a lesson that not to trust anything you download online and be responsible in using the internet. Conduct a regular security routine on your device to avoid these kind of unfortunate events in the future.

There are nothing to do, because the token moved to other address. We should be learn from this, never click on the unknown website or install unknown software. Should be our device always uses premium anti virus, and only login to personal wallet by use clean device. And only login in to it if we want to send tokens/coins to other address, because if we want to see the balance or want to send crypto to that wallet , not necesary to log in.

It would also be nice to see a log of actions performed on the device.

Its my personal laptop with windows 10 on it and using the windows antivirus. no other antivirus or special antivirus installed.


There is one thing more and that is, i was using Atomic wallet and it was password protected, and i didn't open the wallet for a few days but still he the software automatically sent the funds to him.
I am also receiving virus notification as : Trojan:Win32/Tnega!ml

So we cannot trust pre-installed antivirus from Windows, you are keeping your coins on your desktop why have you not think of installing at least one reputable and effective anti-virus and anti-malware it will not even cost you hundreds of dollars.
The malware has a key logger it is able to transmit what you are typing on the keyboard, it's a serious mistake and everyone should take heed of this one.

Sorry for your lost. Hackers are able to exploit any weakness in your system to steal coins and just to make hacking challenges a bit  harder Etherscan has implemented Taint Inference Analysis Engine to  detect tokens  that originated from hacking events. You may address your issue to Etherscan team via this form. This might help " to take out this hacker."

Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do. I think a lot of people have encountered hackers, I'm one of them, and it has taught me to take information security more seriously on my computer
. I'm sorry you lost money because I was in your place and I know how it is ..... This situation will be a lesson for you.

it's too late to do anything now, because it's already recorded on the blockchain and transactions made will also be considered legal so it's very difficult to return your lost funds.
I am sorry for your incident, I hope you get even more and hopefully this will be a lesson for you and for me to be more careful in doing something because things like this are stalking us a lot because fraudsters and thieves like this will continue to do things the same until they get caught.

Hi Friends..


Yesterday, i got hacked on ,21st of May 2021, and is looking for anyone who can do something to get my funds back..

I actually installed a software, which started to blimp as a virus by my antivirus so i uninstalled it and after some time went to sleep.

So what happened is that, whoever got access to my computer through somekind of trojan, moved my HEX tokens worth 320usd and also my AWC tokens 723 which worth about 1100 usd.

There was a software by the name of Adobe acrobat reader of 13.2 GB, which somehow got installed automatically yesterday and i think it was this software which was not really acrobat as acrobat reader is not of 13.2 GB and also i never installed acrobat yesterday..

I haved checked his wallet address on etherscan and it shows that that address of the hacker is draining alot of wallets every second.

I don't know what to do, but thought that someone here may just b able to take out this hacker... Also i would like to know if there is anything i can do to secure my ether wallet as i cant change the keys on ethere and also the AWC wallet secure keys cant b changed..

(I was unable to find the right thread for this post.)
You are probably not going to like the answer the community is going to give you but it is one you most likely already know, there is no way to get your coins back, once those coins leave your wallet the coins no longer belong to you, it is obvious those are your coins from the moral point of view but now the hacker got possession of those coins and he can do whatever he wants with them, it seems you are using windows, there is no way to secure it no matter what you do so you either buy a hardware wallet or use Linux.

Sorry for your loss, but without linking to the file or to the site, are you comfortable to reveal what you were downloading and was it an official site or any known site that we should be aware of? Also did you find that from google or got link from somewhere else?

Because i don't think that you are the first or the last one downloading that.

Probably a malfunction on software lead to the breach of personal data, next time be careful before downloading the files from third-party websites. Especially for crypto users, using extra security software is essential because hackers can choose the target group with data analysis. Btw, forget about the hacked coins which impossible to recover unless you know the hackers.

There’s nothing you can do to recover your funds, don’t use that compromised wallet anymore and create a new one. This will serve you a lesson that not to trust anything you download online and be responsible in using the internet. Conduct a regular security routine on your device to avoid these kind of unfortunate events in the future.
Exactly what I was going to suggest before reading your post. Just avoid downloading any kind of unknown software and you are good to go. Hackers know and look for the weak spots which can be anything. No need to overthink it, everything is simple as explained.

Because i don't think that you are the first or the last one downloading that.

I was actually searching for a software named "Visual CertExam Designer". In that i found a link and downloaded a zip file that was password protected. And once i unzipped it using the given password, then i installed it and as i installed it, i got the virus notification. I then uninstalled the software and thought that everything is fine. But next day i realized that there was 13.2 gb software by the name of Acrobat reader was installed at the same time when this event took place. and i think that was the software that got it done.
