Topic: Finally I am Victim Now! Myetherwallet got Hacked - page 11. (Read 2526 times)
Thats just sad man, I can't imagine myself working so hard just to have someone hacked me and enjoy what I have earned. I am also a myetherwallet user for quite sometime now but I haven't have any issues at all. My savings are still intact so I don't know maybe a user error for you perhaps or maybe someone you know might have done it.
I also experienced the experience you have encountered now.there are many questions in my mind why I am hack that I did not give my PK to others but someone told me my MEW is hack because of phising links like email and airdrop links.so now I learned from my experience I was more careful now and I ignore the email that I am not familiar and if I joined in a airdrop I select the most trusted one.
I was also hacked by hacker , they hack your system so you should need to buy nano ledger for safe your tokens and coins , the only way to safe token and coin is nano ledger(hardware wallet)
Hacker will be able to hack your MEW wallet if you store your private key as a draft mail on your email 
. Beside I think you should have a official virus scanner then check to see if your computer is really clear or not . Beside, hacker hack MEW through hacking DNS of MEW so don't be supprised if you still got hacked if everything is fine.

To create MEW account is not need email address, the possibility is the hacker hacked your private key and gmail account because your device is not clean from malware. So very important to use antivirus for your all device that use for login to the account of wallet or email. And also make sure you activated the 2 step verification for your email account.
Sorry to hear. But MyEtherWallet (MEW) has nothing to do with Gmail or any other email. Unless you stored your Private Key in email box or remote drive, which is very unsafe.
Also a good practice is to spread your assets among few ETH wallets.

Sorry for the misfortune, programmers are on sneak nowadays, they focused on for the most part MEW wallets utilizing phishing locales and also sending spontaneous messages while requesting for some data from individuals in this way accessing your wallet, I had been sent numerous messages by programmers asking me to give some data about my wallet as a byproduct of a few tokens obviously such messages are erased promptly.
Awfull, i've created a bunch of Ethereum addresses for this reason.
It's a warning for other people, i've nearly entered my keys on a phishing site, the site looks nearly the same, keep checking the the Hypertext Transfer Protocol.
When you receive a mail for an airdrop, which is the latest or coins from a fork, that leads you to MEW to enter your keys or create a signature verification stay away from it.

What a pity for your lost. Please use Metamask or hardware wallet to enhance your security to avoid scammers. Dont click in the strange link in Facebook, Email or from someone who you dont know them; the malware can go to your PC by this way.
Wow! Sorry to hear that bro, you have gained very expensive experience, that lesson cost to you $5,000. But I am going to encourage you by saying that after this happened you will be 5000 times more careful with your passwords and security.
I have the same situation but it was 2000$ , My keys was on flash drive also I didnt enter to my wallet very long time, so they hacked MEW or Metamask?
I'm very sorry about what happened with you, last year I also fell victim to deceivers. Tell us please what kind of wallet did you use?
I don't know how I Explain my feelings. I Just lost all of my savings money. I was holding since January, I have been Holding to make again a good amount of Money. But at the end, my holding's output is, I lost everything because of my ETH wallet got hack! Almost 5K USD Stolen. All of my hard working money. I Don't know how can hacker hacked my wallet. Because I Kept very secure my private key, My friends are telling that hacker hacked my wallet by my email address. But how can someone hack only by an email address?
I Got a security alert from Google that someone has your password after then I changed my password immediately. Then after some time, I was checking my wallet to check new Coin. And then I Shocked! I Just want to give up, can't think what should I do
that's why you should not put all your money in just one wallet, or maybe you should put it on hardware wallet like trezor or nano ledger than using myetherwallet, I know that you have heard a lot of issues in mew but you still use to store your funds, at least you have learned your lesson.I Got a security alert from Google that someone has your password after then I changed my password immediately.

Yes, brother, I learned enough. Actually, I was using metamask with myetherwallet, and I felt safe for that. I had a plan to buy a hardware wallet by taking next payment. Hardware wallet is not available in my country, I have to buy from aliexpress. But, my all plans are gone by this hack. I Still can't believe that I lost my all of money. I was too alert and every day I was checking my wallet. However, I need to recover myself. Please pray for me.
Too bad you had to experience such inhumanity from hackers.You they had access to your private keys.You should be very careful next time not to use your private keys on scam sites.
Take a break from crypto for a while if you need it, but don't totally forget it.
Come back when you are clear minded again, many millionaires became broke before they became millionaires.

Honestly, I still do not understand how the message is related to the MEW wallet. Please explain this to me. it's unfortunate that you lost money, but most likely you are to blame for this, or rather, you were inattentive somewhere.
I Don't know why you did not understand bro. My ETH Address hacked by an Indonesian Hacker, He hacked my email by somehow and then he hacked my every wallet and stolen all of my money. I was very attentive with my wallet, you can check my previous message, I always suggest people secure their wallet because I thought my account is safe enough. But accidentally my myetherwallet hacked. I really don't know why you did not understand

You don't use email to log in your myetherwallet. So unless you had the private key stored there, I see no way how you got hacked it through your email. Unless they mean he hacked your computer through your email and then got into the wallet, that would make sense.
no matter how you safely kept your private key, if you use an infected computer, if there is a virus or a trojan in your computer that you connected to myetherwallet, you are in a very high risk.
I'm really sorry for you bro. It really is just sad to know that active and honest users are treated this badly. My only advise to you is to never use your private keys to unlock your MEW account or any wallet that allows this option because this is the riskiest way to do it.
