Topic: my 38 Eth been stolen, any way to get it back...? (Read 1068 times)
The problem here is that the hackers may not immediately spend these coins. They will wait for a few months, or even years before cashing them out. And it may not be possible to take any legal action before they move their coins to the exchanges. There are both black hat and white hat service providers available, who will track your stolen coins in return for a reward. But it is up to you to decide whether you want to use their services. Because even if you involve them, there is no guarantee that you will get back your coins.

really good amount to be lost mate.. why don't you bookmark myetherwallet.com, maybe you click the address from any forum, slack, or another else, you need to be careful in visiting the site, check the web address for twice until you sure that's the true address. the sent transaction can't be canceled, you must be aware of malware ad or site..!
Unfortunately all your eth is gone for good.. I'm sorry for your losses mate. At least this can be a lesson to everyone here in the forums, to alwas bookmark important sites and double check everything before submitting any private keys or passwords.
Sorry to hear that, must be an awful feeling. I nearly sent some tokens to wrong address before and luckily managed to cancel it but the gut wrenching feeling was horrendous.
As others have already pointed out no way to get the coins back. A hard lesson but just learn from it if your continuing your crypto journey.

You can't back it anymore. Once you sent it to other address, there is no way anymore to get it back unless the owner of that wallet will give it back to you. But for me , no more chance that will get back your ethereums.
I'm so sorry for your loss that's a lot of money considering the price of eth today (38.491337 x 479 = $18,437.35) and unfortunately, you can't recover it once it confirmed but how come did fall in a trap set up by a hacker? As you see, it's pretty obvious that is phishing site and also, there is a mobile wallet that you store your eth so, you will not to type myetherwallet on your computer for example coinomi and also, if you googled it myetherwallet on your computer, don't click the first 1 because it is a google ad and obviously a bait i hope you this experience may prevent you making the same mistake in future.
I've learned so many things here about security and other precautionary measures to avoid this kind of hack. Unfortunately yes too bad and felt sorry for your loss.. For that kind of amount I will have it not just in one account. maybe 20 eth is the maximum per wallet/eth add
Sorry to hear. Indeed, not much to do. Good luck in re-earning your investments.
Users need to be very cautious in this regard, because lots and lots of such phising websites with each and everything in the same pattern is found commonly. This has been an easy hacking way than other forms of hack, which is highly complicated. Recently saw similar such incident taking place with the name of coinbase as well.
As others have stated, you can't get it back.
I do feel sorry for you, that is an incredibly large sum of money.
However, the number one rule of crypto security is to never give out you seed.
Don't have it saved on you computer, don't tell anyone, if they are written down make sure they are locked up.
If you ever have to input a seed to access a wallet, first make sure it is the correct wallet or website.
If is also good to constantly make sure your computer is free of viruses or spyware.
There are quite a number of large scale phishing sites that seem to be alive and kicking even after a lot of people had their stuff stolen and report it.
the myethermallet one that you fell victim to is one, the omg airdrop website is another one.
IT is good to post this information so that more awareness can be had because I would say that in 95% of the case where stuff gets stolen, it could have been avoidable.
It is very rare that someone literally hacks past everything to take your stuff. In fact, with just normal wallets, it is pretty much impossible to hack your seed. So they resort to phishing scams and stuff like that.

I wonder... You had 38 ETH and didn't use hardware wallet which costs 0.16ETH? Did you think that it useless? I should disappoint you, but there is no way to get your money back...
rough - there are countless threads of this nature and a TON of phishing around MEW unfortunately.. Chalk it up to being a $20k learning experience i guess, sorry for your loss here.
Very sorry to hear about your loss.
In the future, please use bookmarks to store trusted websites to avoid going to a scam website.

Sorry for your loss! I like to advice crypto enthusiast especially newbies about danger of purchasing and buying cryptocurrency first before education of how cryptocurrency works. You must know exactly what you are doing or else you may lose roof over your head in crypto!
sorry for your lose. the amount of ethereum stolen from your wallet is quite a lot.
hopefully you will gain more than this money in the future. unfortunately you have no chance of getting it back

If the ETH transaction wasn't confirmed yet, how can it be cancelled?
sorry to say ,you cant get it back .
This is one of the disadvantages of crypto currencies, that whenever you have mistakenly sent someone your coins, it will never go back, you can't have a refund. All you can do is to pray that the one you have mistakenly sent coins would be gladly to send back what he had received. But no one will do that, I guess, since you will not be known. It's hard to know that, unless you'll track him thoroughly.
