I am still not sure how thief got access but suspect a key logger from Usenet. I was running virus checker but it was either AVG or K labs and did not trigger anything. Any and all help tracking these down would be appreciated

[farlack]

Looks like he gets payments from mining, contact the pools he uses maybe they have some info.

Or hes just getting small wallets, and fucked up by sending to his real.

You mean "tazja" right? I am assuming from the link to that thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=109937

Wish I could help. That is truly unfortunate. If you offer a bounty, you may get some helping doxxing this guy.

Yup, he's right. Offering a bounty in the Service section would be your best bet.

[lostcoins69]

Don't know the service section part, but I will send two BTC for the safe return of the stolen coins to the 1HUJt.... address

[AdamWhite]

Why would you send the coins back to that address when you already know it's compromised

[QuestionAuthority]

Why don't you just contact your credit card company, report the fraud and have them reverse the transaction?

[newIndia]

Create a thread in this section offering your 2 BTC bounty => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0

Be clear about giving the thief's profile URL and the related thread link. You'll see the secret detectives of the forum are jumping in to help u out...

[Ron~Popeil]

That sucks man. I hope you get your coins back. Paper wallet time?

Sorry for your loss OP.

May I ask what do these detectives do exactly, can they reverse the payment or do they just track who was responsible for this sort of stuff and provide their whereabouts? And when they do, what happens after that?

[Aditya]

Did you encrypt your wallet with password?

Next time don't use Windows. Use Mac OS X or GNU/Linux. If you store large amount of bitcoin, you may use cold storage / paper wallet.

[jeffersonairplane]

How did you get your Bitcoins stolen? I would try to get a DOX of this guy.

[stokecrypto]

harsh man, to many hackers about you got be carefull.

how do these key loggers ect get past the router do they use upnp? or just go down a known open port like 80?

[Dannie]

Sorry to hear your loss.
I can see that you have already made a post in "service" to provide a bounty. Good luck.

[lostcoins69]

Was you using windows without an outbound firewall? (Windows firewall does not block Outbound connections and any undetected key-logger would send everything to the hacker without you even knowing)

the wallet had passphrase encryption.  Not sure about the firewall.  Kasperski and AVG were on and nether triggered.   ran Malwarebytes.org scan and it did flag a bunch of stuff that the AV programs missed.  Certainly learned a lesson about importance of paper wallets.   

this character has posted to this community in the past.  I am hopeful moderators can DOXX him and hopefully together we can shame/coerce the guy to return the coins.

Yeah, that's not gonna happen. When Bitcoins are gone they're gone. That's the greatest feature of Bitcoin - irreversible transactions and no fraud controls. Those stupid bankers would return your funds by crediting your debit card and prosecute the criminal.

[Acidyo]

Why don't you just contact your credit card company, report the fraud and have them reverse the transaction?

hehe, funny guy.

[Ghris]

It's a bit of a stretch but here is what I came up with:

Tazja is known as tazbox on a hackers forum (http://jomgegar.com/)
16th post in this topic shows tazbox probably is up to no good/linked to bitcoin (http://jomgegar.com/topic/2801-question-about-bitcoin/?hl=tazbox)

Then if we look a bit further we find this topic about tazja being a hacker: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=543660.0
If you look at post 18, you see a post of bitdonkey. He stated he also got hacked by tazja.
If we look up bitdonkey's post we see this post about him purchasing a VPS host: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=342443.msg5598973#msg5598973

Domain is tazbox. As stated previously, that is the username of Tazja. So either bitdonkey is tazja, or he wanted to make a website dedicated to his own hacker?

The extension of the domainname is not stated, but let's assume it's .fr, as he is french. Then we come up with:
contact:     Dubas Julien
address:     18, place de la mairie
address:     07200 Aubenas
country:     FR
phone:       +33 7 53 76 03 40
e-mail:      taznact@gmail.com
Possible second email: taznact@yahoo.com

And what if we search for taznact? Then this comes up as first result:
Antivirus scan for ... - VirusTotal
https://www.virustotal.com/latest-report.html?resource...
SHA256: 6debde863fce2217b8e7e8a58dd948f00c441eb15d5cba30a5a7103d469e07b8. File name: Taznact.exe. Detection ratio: 24 / 47. Analysis date ...


So the domainname tazbox.fr is now linked to not only sha256, but also to a file with the name taznact.exe (same as his email) which most likely contains a virus.

And the virus made you lose your bitcoin.
By the way, he seems to spread his virus through NZB (download website).
Look at his uploaded files: http://www.nzbking.com/poster/Taznact@yahoo.com%20(Taznact)/

Hope this helps!

If you manage to get your btc back, this is my address for a donation:

Sorry to hear about the lost coins.

Why are you running kaspersky and avg at the same time though? You shouldn't be running 2 antivirus's like that at the same time.

Often times they can negate each other. Then neither one is effective at catching anything. Just run kaspersky, make sure it is up to date and run a full scan.

You can also try running adwcleaner http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ and combofix http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/combofix/.

You should not be using the same wallet anymore until you figure out what happened on your machine(or at all really). At this point consider the machine that had the BTC stollen from compromised.

It may not be a bad idea to change passwords on any accounts you have as you may have a keylogger. Clean your computer first before changing the passwords as if you have a keylogger it will capture the new passwords too.

Hopefully you can get all of this figured out.
