Heads up, I saw on Twitter yesterday that Coinomi successfully contacted NameCheap and got them to take down a scam website. Since mybtgwallet.com is also registered at NameCheap, I contacted them and they had me open a ticket with their legal department. I asked for the site to be reviewed/taken down and pointed them to this thread for details.
We'll see what happens. No chance we'll get our funds back but at least we might put a stop to it.
Topic: [BTG] Someone stole my BTC (Read 1058 times)
Same was happen to me i have temporary blockchain wallet with temporary amount of 0.00016 BTC, yesterday i put backup recovery phrase in http://mybtgwallet.com/ (recommended by BTG official website) now my wallet is empty.. amount goes to same address - 1DVhaBdbp5mx5Y8zR1qR9NBiQtrgL9ZNQs.. Now they remove that website from their official website.. 
Of course, the new wallets are insecure, because the development and encryption of these new wallets are inherently low and are likely to be stolen from bitcoin, so in the end it is advisable to use a well-known and longer-lived wallet.
sorry for saying that but this one on you you should never trust anyone with your private keys or anyway to access your wallet ....
I tried to access my BTG through my BTC wallet. I guess I told them my seed and fucked up. $280 gone. I trusted the site but well... 
I've used a "wallet"-link from their official page but the page seems to updated their wallets and the one is not listed anymore Ah yes, it was http://mybtgwallet.com/

my funds were sent to following address:

When they announce about creating a clone of Bitcoin entire blockchain, mate you'd get scammed just by trusting these outrageous claims, if you turn off
Your computer and think deeply about this situation, you'd ask yourself:>> why would anyone spend their money to donate to every Bitcoin holder? no one
Official capacity or otherwise has ever endorsed such chain splits. is that not an alarm for you?

I think you should be keen in selecting reputable wallet address and one thing is never reveal your private keys everytime you go in internet cafe. Thats only an example because mostly that is cases of hacking account forgetting to sign out.

This is one of the reason, I’ve never trust a developers of a fork coin. Anyway I don’t support that copycat shitcoin since before I’ve become aware of they’re tendency to make fool of everyone’s hardwork bitcoin be in this situation. That’s a lesson learned to you and anyone else that trusting those hype promises of doing a better version of bitcoin is nothing but a shameful reality of scammers. So take a look back at this moment when in the future you find yourselves be excited to participate again in the forking.
People are lined up and ready to milk the crypto community for all it is worth. Be careful.
lol never send your seed or private key to another person , just find tutorial to receive bitcoin gold on youtube , there bunch of it and follow this by yourself
always keep your investment to the safe and trusted wallet like electrum coinbase to avoid risk of your money, need to take care of your money because have many people want to get easy money, have alot of scammer around there i suggest investigate first the cridebility and reputation of people involve in the company before put your money to become safe.

Well that can't be help if you are just a newbie here in the cryptocurrency world
You can't do anything about it, it was already on to someone's wallet and I bet he will never give it back because that was easy money. All you have to do is to move on and never do the same mistake again, I guess.
The scammers are waiting to steal your money around you. You should know that they are very intelligent but dishonest. You must be more and more conscious about them. Never loses your again by such a foolish work.
I deserve that I guess. I'm well aware of the mistake I made (I'm sure the OP is too). I'll definitely be more careful going forward - kicking myself still at the moment.

The devs are acknowledging it at least, sort of:

Good idea, I'll see what I can do with them. And thanks for the sympathy... Sucks but then again it's not a ton of cash. Luckily I only had a small portion of my funds in that wallet.
Also good tip above about sending to a new wallet before a fork, I'll keep that in mind.
I'm sorry for your loss mate.i think you should move your bitcoins first before claiming your ang forked coins i did this on bitcoin cash hard fork just to be sure that your bitcoin is safe for now all you can do is contact the btg wallet support if they are gonna respond and address this problem and hope that they return the bitcoins.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Next time before claiming your forked coins, transfer your BTC to a new wallet.
Then in case of a corrupt wallet, your BTC won't be gone.
