Please be extremely careful with whom you do your transactions with and most importantly secure your wallet.

It is not a good idea of using e-wallet for Bitcoin. Now so often Bitcoin accounts are getting hacked. So it would be best for anyone to use hardware wallet rather than e-wallet.

Unfortunately you can not do much except changing your email/btc-e passwords. Use 2FA for both your e-mail and btc-e account from now on.
2FA is a must in bitcoin world
No, it's a must everywhere.

IMO this is why you should designate a computer purely for BTC trading/wallet storage & whatnot - if this website you used won't take security seriously it doesn't mean you shouldn't.

BTCe may not have full disclosure but the security on the site seems to be very adequate for most users including 2FA.  If the end user doesn't utilize that tool then they are assuming the risk.

can anyone help me monitor the coins that where they are now?
The address where my 1101.3NMC where sent to is: NKoRGdKkDHNQSTXwednEdyMsgnJA2oyxk2
The address where my 141.54PPC where sent to is:  PXsMukRtNKo7rYrNoarMRnfqoNkff9k5E6

Please help me find the location. Asking other exchanges about the final address is a good idea. does anyone help?
thanks

Sorry to hear the loss. Those NMC and PPC worth about 2.6 BTC at current price, but I think you need to take it as an expensive lesson as the chance of getting your coins back is almost zero. Sad

I'm not sure how large an amount of BTC your account was hacked for but I'd suggest not keeping large amounts of Bitcoin on the exchange from now on.  Best to have a wallet you control solely and play it safe.  Sorry for the loss of funds but now you know what not to do for next time and can prevent being a victim again.

Its almost impossible to find the location of the hacker, might as well find other ways to get it back..

Very sorry to hear this, unfortunately there is not a lot you can do after you have been hacked aside from learn from any mistake you may have made that resulted in the hack and try and pull yourself back. Hopefully you can do this as it can not be a nice feeling knowing that everything you managed to make has been taken.

Passwords i think is really hard to hack especially if you have lots of symbols, upper and lowercase letters. IF they got into you account then often times this is due to keyloggers, browser apps and downloading untrusted files. Else its the fault of BTC-e.

What to you mean by "hack"... You are just talking about trying to guess the password using heuristics and brute force. If you get hold of the password, it doesn't matter if it is '123456' or a 25-character random string. It's cracked. Bam. 2FA is an awesome protection against that, because you need to get access to 2 passwords (1 2FA key), and the 2FA keys are one time tokens, so stealing them won't do you any good.

Ouch, that hurts the soul Sad Sorry about your loss. I had around 3 BTC and my laptop fell in water(long story).

How did that happen??? Please elaborate! A water damage doesn't necessarily destroy the hard drive or the data on it. When was that Do you still have the drive and did you try rescuing the data on it???

i think btc-e account has a superior security that can not be hacked by the hacker, i hope IT security in btc-e account can make security more secure to prevent lossing user data, hoperfully ...


nothing is impossible dude.
use 2FA.

But do you think maybe it's the fault of BTC-e, since some people say they're very shady. It seems no one even knows where they're located. Form my experiences, people often do illegal things when they don't want to be found. They stay hidden for a reason, you know!!!
