this case is very often happen so thats why sometime there is warning to use bitcoin carefully since no way to return the money if get stolen.
Omg really? Its too much expensive u just waste your money but sorry for that by the way
I really hate the scammers because the bitcoin is very expensive and it is very tough to make the bitcoin use as the bitcoin value and the bitcoin price will increase more and more, it is very hard to earn the bitcoin so it good to do the hard work and to earn the bitcoin instead of the scamming and stealing the bitcoin from the other people I hope the bitcoin will be the best currency it needs to make safe now.
What a waste! Thats too bad man. Losing that means no other ways to get it other than the one who got it changed their mind which they will not. Thats a large amount of money. You should be cautious around all sites and even on your own computer. Computers are easily hackable and malwares are still popping out day by day. Sorry for you but I think you should just try better next time so that it will not happen again. No policemen can help as it is untraceable or rather so secured. Also, most of them don't even know what is BTC. Good luck man.
Hi, I have been stolen the 10 bitcoins in my electrum wallet!!
Because I have used a fake application or malware that coming from electrumdesktop.org, and I think there is another fake scam website: electrumbitcoin.org
Please be careful, or we can find out those scam website publisher.
Also, I found an interesting thing here:
I've followed the thief's transaction flow. And finally found my balance has flowed into this three address:
https://blockchain.info/address/1N52wHoVR79PMDishab2XmRHsbekCdGquK
https://blockchain.info/address/12cgpFdJViXbwHbhrA3TuW1EGnL25Zqc3P
https://blockchain.info/address/17A16QmavnUfCW11DAApiJxp7ARnxN5pGX
They are all such a huge amount bitcoins address. Is that possible that they are exchange service account?
Is there any way to ask each exchange service to verify if those addresses belong to them? with the policeman's help
Thank you very much!
Why you did able to believe on such thing? Its really obvious that site was just a scam and try to phish users by inputting their important informations to access electrum and its normal for hackers to divide those funds to complete their anonymity and tracing up would really be hard because those coins are being scattered already.Sorry for your loss mate and this thing would really serve as a learning for you.

There is no chance of retrieving it back if it came from a Phishing site. Also seeing the addresses' total received quantity of Bitcoin is huge which is pretty unusual for being undetected us it would be flagged by now, having an address with 3 million + Bitcoins received is an insane amount to see. And may I ask how did you chance upon the fake website "electrumbitcoin.org" to let other members here serve it as a warning in the future.
I know how you feel, that's really very annoying. but this is the world of crypto, no transactions can be canceled. You should be more careful next time, because more and more hackers and scammers are lurking us.
I am sorry to hear that, my friend. But honestly this is really hard to return the money as it's crypto currency. Thank you for sharing the info so people can be more careful. Good luck to you!
Thank you for sharing. Sorry for you loss, good that people read such posts and would become more careful. Keep your precious BTC secure!
Really, wow that will be huge amount and you can buy a house with that. So So Sorry to hear that.
Please, on internet people are smart, use 2FA for safety !

I think the hacker uses an exchange service account to sell your Bitcoin, although I doubt this problem can be solved with the policeman's help, but there is no harm in trying because your losses are too much.

A lot of fraud websites now. I also met one today. Recently, a lot of such suspicious links, we should pay attention to, liar is really too much, a lot of immoral people.
I already said that it most likely will not work. Of course it can be considered as criminal, bitcoin has value and is, therefore, an asset irrespective of any "official institution" definition. Theft of an asset is a crime in any country. The problem is only that the police will lack any means to investigate and the perpetrator will be almost impossible to track down and probably out of jurisdiction. The OP did not say where they are but if it is the US then as Polinex is registered there the chances of getting Polinex to do something are slightly improved if the police could be persuaded to approach them.
agree with the above statement...its really bad what happen to you

Do not worry take this as an experience and play your investment nicely like invest on some genuine website and gain some profit and remove your capital invested.
I heavily disagree with this. It's definitely not a good idea to invest your bitcoin on those so called "investment sites" or "cloud mining sites". They're always either a Ponzi scheme, or a straight up scam. You want to invest? Simply hold your bitcoin on a well-secured wallet.
If you use blocktrail.com rather than blockchain.info they have a mentions tab for each address where it shows you if the address shows up in an internet search.
Of the 3 addresses you listed, the first was mentioned in this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.21694998 in another scam. The other two seem to be linked to Polinex.
You could try and contact Polinex support but I wouldn't hold out much hope of a response. You could also contact your local police but the chances of them even understanding your problem let alone being able to help are again very small.
In the end we are all responsible for taking care of the security of our own Bitcoins.

Indeed, everyone should be aware of any fraudulent activity. How could you fall into a trap of "fake wallet" in the first place?
Glad to know about the fake site, and hopefully you can trace your bitcoin before it is sold even though you have small chance to get it back.
I've tried to check this fake site, but couldn't be accessed anymore.
Thanks for the share of your experience and care on people in our bitcoin forum.
Do ensure that u set up some software to block such antivirus, Malwares etc.
Do not worry take this as an experience and play your investment nicely like invest on some genuine website and gain some profit and remove your capital invested.
Experience makes you strong so, win it with success with a good management plan.

Sorry for your loss mate but there is really nothing you could do about it. Once your coins are lost, they are gone.
You can be sending mails to every exchange service asking for information about a particular address.
They won't be responding to you at all and if they do there won't be anything you could do about it since it will involve legal documents of authority which will be difficult to job.
