A fake Electrum server  Roll Eyes

Is that possible? and is elctrum responsible for that at all?

If it is indeed an Electrum bug, then they will compensate you for sure. But I'm not sure what kind of harm a fake server can do, since the signing of the transaction happens locally and no one should have the knowledge of your seed

If your VM machine was not running when the theft happens, then the weakness should be in the seed or private key

Well either way I'm fucked. Accepting donations to my sig.. Fuck my dignity. hah Sad

That on the same computer?  The hacker is probably reading this and licking his chops.  Cheesy

Servers technically aren't supposed to be able to steal your bitcoin with electrum as it depends upon SSL for security . But the attacker could have used compromised SSL certs ...

Yes, This is a very likely possibility. Do not use auto-connect with SPV clients and select an older trusted server.

Fuck I've been screwed so many times. BFL, Avalon, mtGox, 50BTC, blackarrow. Fuck them all. Only got back in to BTC recently after about 4-5 months. I give up.

You got hit by all the above?! Outch.

Yeah.  It's just one of those things, you know?  Fate, karma, cause and effect or whatever...  It's probably the whole universe trying to tell you that Bitcoin isn't for you.

No one I know knows about bitcoin

It isn't about bitcoin, they could have grabbed your btc incidentally when they saw you were involved. No one you know or are in contact with is technical?

No this a fairly new build (PC). ANd I've been isolated completely living on this boat.

Living on a boat ? How u r getting the connectivity ? Is that internet connection reliable ? Are u in a river or in a sea ? Care to share a snap ?

Perhaps we should follow the hackers breadcrumbs...

3lectruM fail. More2come SWX

What version of electrum are you running? Where did you download it from?  Since you are using a SPV client what server did you connect to?

v2.1.1 downloaded from their website and i check the checksums. Server is autconnect.

No one is willing to give that info in public right now.  It could be an Electrum vulnerability.

U could try www.bitundo.com... but it has already got a confirmation.

Wow! Interesting share! Have you ever tried this site?
I don't think its legit! I will try it right now and edit this post Smiley

No. I have never tried. I'd be interested in your feedback as well...

It doesn't work  Undecided
The last "Next" button doesn't work no matter how much you click it or how hard you click it Tongue
