Most likely, they already stike stole wallet backup / secret information when you sign up at blockchain.info
And there are low chances you use fake anti-malware/anti-trojans/anti-rootkits

Or the hackers use man-in-the-middle attack http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack

How about the email account with a previous backup of your wallet? If hackers have your old wallet backup, they can extract your private keys.

This.  2FA doesn't apply to backups.   Did you have a backup emailed to yourself?  Stored on your computer?  Sent to dropbox?

TBH it is pretty irresponsible of these companies to not restrict outgoing transactions without verification via email at the very least.
Your mistake is you assume they're creating the transaction, they're not.  Bitcoin doesn't need anyone's authorisation, that's part of the appeal.

Then run the bitcoin core client?

The advantage of having an email log also is that there can be no question in situations like this--the IP address, browser, time, amount, addresses involved would all be recorded within that users email address.

[...]And im sure more accounts at Blockchain are compromissed as i see more incoming in that last one![...]

From your security measures (protecting your PC, 2FA etc) and this part of your post, it seems to me that this is not a hacked account but something to do on Blockchain.info's side that can cause private keys to be leaked.

This has happened in past with this site and who is to say this isn't one more of the site's vulnerability?

We can only verify when other users have similar issues as yours though.

Blockchain keep closing my requests without a single sign that will help me at least to get to that IP that have logged to my account!

I never tought that Blockchain would have this kind of behaviour with users.

This just make me feel like they have some kind of responsability in it or they at least would help with the IP.

So sad to hear.  They must feel responsibility and need to help you as much as possible to find out the theft.

Did you have logging options enabled on your wallet?

Really an horrible story, which no one want to happen to them.  Is there any way to recover them?

Well, that's a pity. Maybe from a wallet backup?

Hi

I was 200% sure that having Google 2FA enabled i was secure... i was not!

I was moving those 9.67BTC from another place and was not to stay there, but 5 minutes after its confirmation, hacker sent them to the adresses i have described!

I just tried to log on to my blockchain wallet from a different country and I had to manually verify via email the logon attempt. So it seems unlikely that someone outside of your vicinity logged into your account without you knowing. Did you have the logging options within blockchain activated? If not then you're not going to be able to tell who did it.

Even so, I don't know if storing 9.67 BTC on a web based wallet is such a great idea.

TBH it is pretty irresponsible of these companies to not restrict outgoing transactions without verification via email at the very least.

Hello

Last night i saw a message of a Bitcoin transaction from my wallet that i didnt ordered of 9.67 BTC that was almost the total of what i have there.
So i saw that my BTC was been sending to 12bj8u6cKZoYjWksBpuPVMUj8sSkRRc89b wallet!

And im sure my pc wasnt compromissed, and i have 2FA enabled in a Phone i have only for this that dont even have a SIM card inserted, and been looking at my email logs and no one logged from a ip diferent then mine.

I dont open any emails i dont know, never used TOR, i have all instaled that protects me from any kind of malware, i have all the cautions about this as i never been hacked.

After this i had run several anti-malware...anti-troians...anti-rootkits...software, and they found nothing as i expected and again... i have 2FA in a phone without SIM that i use only to storage my 2FA keys so no way the hacker can get that, im 100% sure that the security breach was not on my side!

Blockchain should see the logs has i log always from the same range of IPs.

 - First withdraw - https://blockchain.info/address/12bj8u6cKZoYjWksBpuPVMUj8sSkRRc89b

 - Final Withdraw from the second one - https://blockchain.info/address/12cfKkiK9C3kfyrWeLP3jt76TmX52GDeRx

And my 9 BTC parked there, is the first transaction!

 - Splited withdraw with the rest 0.67 BTC - https://blockchain.info/address/14ceUvczuqTsA1mKYBqtpdQ5cc9mQbQrjC

And im sure more accounts at Blockchain are compromissed as i see more incoming in that last one!

Blockchain keep closing my requestes and replying with burocratic answers like...we are sorry but we do not control the users wallets!

But again i had Google 2FA on a isolated phone that i connect to net trough wifi once per 15 days to update the keys.

Thank a lot for your help and suggestions.
