is not for the blockchain.info is from third party. they told me now from blockchain.info so i was scammed Sad

Is 100% my fault because i think was an official app but it was not. It says that is from blockchain ltd but is not.

That is why do not want trust anything from google store. They have long history of scam applications happily posted there. This is not the first bitcoin app which is rigged.
I saw reports from people who claimed that other 'wallets' of bitcoin "block 'explorers were infected with malicious code. If you want bitcoin wallet - only download it from Bitcoin.org!
You will save yourself problems in the future...

So let me get this right, you have had 0.001 bitcoin compromised?
0.001 bitcoin is about 0.2 USD. How will you carry on in life, how will you continue?

Come on man pull yourself together, you should be thankful that you didn't have a large stash in there. This is like losing 20 cents down the back of the sofa. Pull yourself together & be more careful in the future.

There was lots of issues before that attackers exploit android bugs to steal bitcoin from wallets. There was an android-Bitcoin Malware on playstore/Google store. But the google have removed it already. Not sure if there are still apps like this. You might have downloaded a malicious software. That's why scrutinizing each app is necessary if you are using android wallet.

as i say i dont use android wallet and the only apps that i have download from amazon play store is blockchain.info app

Almost been 1.5+ years of using blockchain.info

Never had a problem!
PS: 2FA not set for 1.5 years now Grin

But i switched to Multibit yesterday Wink

I used them too without 2FA and didn't have any problems either, but I moved to Trezor town yesterday and am very happy I did so. I don't have many BTC but it's still one less thing to worry about.

I used the blockchain wallet since I started with bitcoins more than a year ago. They email you for authorisation when a unknown computer wants to access your wallet. I have about 0.5 btc on there for a long time and it's still in my wallet. I think they are safe if you access your wallet securely.

it's not blockchain's fault, i believe it's yours and your wallet was probably hacked. Maybe your device/computer had some viruses and malwares or maybe you put your details on a phishing site

It is also possible the blockchain.info app you downloaded isn't actually the "real" app.
Make sure you downloaded the wallet app from their actual site, as opposed to some other site.

and why is hacked only at 5 august and all the transfer in that wallet has done the same day and the same hour from several wallet. And if i have a virus why the target only the 0.001 wallet and not the other with many more bitcoins? This is has not sense at all..

No, there are definitely huge security flaws with blockchain. The site should not be used as a wallet, and there are even many superior block explorer alternatives as well. Blockchain should not be the place to store your Bitcoins!!!

You most likely have a virus or malware on your mobile device.
You should scan your mobile device to be sure.

but i have and another bitcoin wallet in my mobile that didnt effect at all. And i dont have open the blockchain wallet from the firts day i create it.

Its possible that the virus/malware is programmed to work with the blockchain.info mobile wallet, and not the others.
I'm not saying it wasn't blockchain.info itself, but unlikely.
You should nevertheless scan your mobile device, just to be sure.

and this is strange because the last app that i have install was the blockchain app and general i never install other apps in this phone. I have only 5 apps installed four months now. I dont think is a virus especially in a blackberry phone. And what virus is this that target the wallet with the 0.001btc and not the other wallet with 0.2 btc Tongue

in the same phone
