Got Hacked... Need help if anyone can...

[Silberman]

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.

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.

That makes sense, my recommendation is that you completely wipe out your hard drive, I hope that you already have your seed words and your private keys in other devices, you should never have your wallets in the computer that you use for your everyday activities because something like this can happen to you, if you do not really have any option but to use that kind of software and download stuff online then get a hardware wallet and forget about those kind of problems.

Most of time hackers attack from cracking files. If you install any cracked file, I think that's your big mistake. Cause, cracked file can be a trap of hacker. And now you haven’t any way to get back your money. Ethereum is decentralized and nobody can help you.

Personally, Thank you for warn us. We can be more careful from this lisone. I can understand your present situation.

I feel sorry for my friend, but I don't think it can be undone. because it is already recorded and it is legal even though it was not sent by you but it already has a transaction hash and it is already considered valid. maybe all you have to do now is report the address and be more careful in doing something because these kinds of things (scammers & thieves) will continue to find loopholes in performing their actions, lest we be careless and neglect the safety of our wallets.
may this be a lesson for you and a knowledge for all of us so that such incidents do not happen again

I am very sorry to hear that, but thank you for sharing important information like this, so that we can be careful and things like that don't happen to us. I think there is no way to recover a hacked wallet, you have to make this an important experience, so that it doesn't happen again

When you install pirated apps or click links from unkknown sources then these things can happen that is why being secure on the internet is a real task for everyone. You lost our funds and many people are losing as well for such traps.

You should reinstall your OS and don't install any applications from pirated sites, and better to have an anti virus which may saves our from trojeans, trackers, etc.

Sorry to say but you cant really turn those funds back and no one can really help you since crypto transactions are irreversible which means getting those coins are impossible
unless if the hacker itself would return it to you which is impossible to happen.

This is why we should really be keen on downloading things online because we dont know if we do download a malware which would cause for our important informations
stored on our pc would get compromised.

One thing you can do is to reformat and make out new wallet then start  all over again and be sure to learn up things this time.

First of all if got hacked and your fund are stolen, you can not do anything. No one can reverse the transaction. The thing you may do is report the wallet as a scam or hacked fund on etherscan ( but this can also be resolve by hacker with swaping your token on uniswap ). So basicly if your PC got compromished install antivirus and scan all. You can not judge that the acrobat reader doing it. Scan with keyloger scanner too.

For other : dont ever open the strange link, and never fill in the form if it asked your phase prase wallet.

We know that an antivirus is in many circumstances useless, it is only going to detect a menace once it has been around for some time stealing the funds of other users, so we need to exercise extreme caution when it comes to the security of our coins, whatever we install needs to always be verified and downloaded only from the official sources and even that is not enough so it is better to switch to an OS that is more secure like one of the many versions of Linux.

things like this keep happening very often, but unfortunately because there is no way to restore your hacked wallet, or return your coins that have switched wallets, that is also impossible. the only thing you can take is experience, so always be careful and things like this don't happen again

I myself have experienced by losing an unibright token and also a nugget token,at that time only those two tokens had a price,and I myself couldn't do anything, because I didn't know how to do it because my private key wallet was automatically already in other people's hands too..
My advice is to move some of the remaining assets in your new wallet because that's the only method and lost tokens won't come back..
