Topic: Metamask hacked ? (Read 596 times)
I am using Metamask more than two years still i haven't faced any risk yet. Probably you send eth to that address or your device is shared with someone who knows about crypto or there is maleware in your device. If you really face this situation, you can transfer you remaining eth to another new wallet or can create another Metamask wallet. Don't forget to use antivirous software.
Maybe you forget about old transaction that have been made by you not hacker, besides that your money too small. Take security step into your computer/ laptop, clear all history & cookies, delete all not important data, scan with anti viruses but never forget to save your important data out side the pc. Never combine all activity in one place, financial activity should stand alone.
Maybe you've been following an airdrop or gift that should grant access from a metamask yourself, even if it's illegal or phishing will definitely be considered the same metamask yourself. Or you confirm fake link to get access to your wallet. I think it just seems to me because many of my friends were such an incident that I described it.
I just saw this transaction that I didn't make myself. Does my metamask is hacked? I have 8 address in that account. and nothing is touched after that txn https://etherscan.io/tx/0x359dd6b8154e7711d9e21ad5520ceba687f58619d87a7a77dd66c5b103124d3a
I don't really know what happen to your account but there is so many bugs now are happening on the eth wallet or erc20 wallet that all eth balances are vanished without any transactions but when you try to refresh the page it will appear again.

I think it was you who created the transaction and you forgot it. Metamask is very secure and cannot be hacked.
or maybe he downloaded and install the wrong meta mask ? if im not mistaken there was a fake metamask on the chrome/firefox store . @op have you done transactions on the past using that metamask ? what was your experience ?
if its hacked then you better unlink all the wallets connected on that meta mask and add 2fa's on every accounts plus scan your device using antivirus . try to download a new metamask that came from the official supplier and observe things . make sure that you dont download , visit or transact on untrusted stuffs .

I think you should remember, have you ever opened it on that date and made a transaction. then have you ever opened a wallet using another device, for example on another PC or maybe even a smartphone. it can also be an indication, because opening 1 site with the same account on another device is also vulnerable to security.
did u already check about ur transaction ?
i mean , according to ur tx hash give , the recipient address has moved away the ETH to the hot wallet of HITBTC.
and i just have a think, did u already check ur HITBTC account ?
because for me, its not make sense metamask has been hacked.

I have never noticed any problems behind the metamask; basically, such problems appear due to the human factor. The reason may be the fact that you yourself installed the malware, well, or you yourself completed the transaction.
There are many possibilities that can happen. Not the hacked metamask, but your carelessness. Metamask has a fake plugin made by hackers, and there have been a lot of theft due to fake plugins. Then someone can access your computer or steal your browser data that is integrated with metamask. Many malware can lurk your device, use your best antivirus to overcome this.
you have to buy ledger nano s my friend, do it while its the black friday..
dont own your coins on a hot wallet on a computer that you use everyday
really sorry for your loss
I really believe that hardware wallets should be more popular than they are, I understand that no one wants to spend money in something when they can store their coins for free on their computers but when you see the huge amount of scams and hacks in the market you should think if you really want to risk your coins just to save yourself a few dollars.dont own your coins on a hot wallet on a computer that you use everyday

Obviously hardware wallets are not impossible to hack and you can still lose your funds if you make mistakes but it is many times more difficult and that is what it is important.

It is a very small amount for a leaked of metamask, you should double check with yourself whether you did that transaction or not. If not, maybe you can ask yourself whether someone of your family or friends that knows that wallet. There is no leak yet in metamask as far as I concern so there is a big possibility that it was your doing or your private key was being fish. It will be best if you create a new wallet and transfer all your assets now to that wallet. Though you have no big amount there as your remaining balance is only 0.124eth but just to make it more clever, then next time make sure that you can safely put your private key in a safe place.
I think you have forgotten and you have made some transactions,or you have downloaded the Metamask from a suspicious website. Meta mask is safe if you use it from your own pc and has downloaded from Meta mask original site.

Since you're saying you did not carry out those transactions, it's most likely your Pc has been compromised or a malware was installed in your browser. I personally have experienced such a situation and had to withdraw all my ethereum from the wallet. I've since stopped using metamask and settled for Imtoken.
Are you sure that transaction not doing by you?. That's already 22 days ago. When the last time you use metamask? Because I don't have a trouble with metamask until today. Just try to remember it?
Will possible memask hacek? I think only your self have connection with your Metamask account because you save your key on your computer and log in to Metamask using password have you set before creating Metamask account, maybe your friend or some one access to your phone and computer to log in Metamask account for sending all your assets.

It is really unfortunate but you seem to have been hacked, while I understand your desperation those coins are gone and you will never be able to get them back.What you need to do now is to move all your wallets to a computer that you know is completely clean, generate a new set of wallets and send your coins there, we have seen many cases in the past in which hackers stole only a portion of your holdings and then after a few weeks they realized their mistake and stole everything they left behind.
It could be that your address was comprised maybe by malware installed on your computer because I doubt the possibility of Metamask being hacked.
i tought that i was hacked once, and at the end it appeared that i made the transaction and forgot about it.
check every exchange you have if you are missing something
hope you wasnt hacked

During this time I use Metamask safe, there is a possibility that you have malware on your computer or other device, if you have a lot of assets in your wallet, it's better to move your assets immediately to a safe wallet and use another device that is clean from malware.
hmm btw what kind of Malware which is can do an automatic transaction on blockchain especially at ETH chain bro? never heard about that
. or maybe hacker put some Payload file to control his victim's PC?
