It won't be hacked if you didn't logged to the real MEW link.
Bookmark Myetherwallet so you won't be random typing it on the web and let google search for those related sites that has it as their keyword search. Be vigilant in the cryptoworld and though you can't recover the funds, there's a way to avoid this incident in the future and that is by starting to be more careful.
Yes you are right. We must bookmark correct / actual MEW link instead of typing all the times and google will be searching all the links available also there is a fear that we may click on some cheat link.

Even the real MEW has been given a warning for how long on their website about of not getting phished. Most of the victims didn't bookmarked or saved MEW on their browser so they have been searching it on google and google results comes out with the fake ones.
Deal with your loss and find out how your account got compromised, most likely you have visited a phishing site.
My mine have a same thougt with you, to acces MyEtherWallet account is difficult for everyone (especially hacker) cause they need a private key or anything else to get in. A few month back, I had found many user MEW who got hacked and their token was stolen. Those are caused by phising site, a hacker made a counterfeit site like MEW precisely and lead on many user to use that site. In the end, if they are successfully logged in, all your important documents such as a private key will be known by a hacker who makes the site phising. yep forget about it, there is nothing to do with a hacked wallet anyways
next time keep your private key safe or better get a trezor/ledger nano

Exactly, maybe they are sharing their private key with others and this makes people lose their coins. We have to secure our wallet otherwise there are many fake airdrops giving free coin trap without knowing we will give permissions to those stupids.
My only advice to you op is better be careful next time before you act or deal something that you arent sure or unfamilliar with .
better ask the experts or better do your own research first online , dont be lazy because you are the only one thay will suffer at the end .
Goodluck ! I also suggest to you is move on because you cannot possibly recover your coins anymore if it is been hacked or phished .

I have also been hacked by my wallet by someone who is irresponsible and part of my eth is stolen like you because I've been on a phishing site called airdrop, have you ever entered a dangerous site.

It is a mistake to keep and secure it, Mew is not easy to attack but your computer is very easy. Always keep your computer clean when you are a crypto-related person. But I am very sorry to hear this and hope you will make a lot of money in the future
I'm very sorry for you, even if there was a small amount, it's still not pleasant that you have something stolen. I advise you to forget about it, you can not do anything, unfortunately. Just next time be careful when clicking on links

my etherscan (MyEtherwallet) was hacked coins stolen; little confused and sad;
Nowadays, a lot of people have been hacked and hacked into their wallets. I think you should buy a hard wallet to protect your tokens. The Ledger Nano S is just $ 150 and you have the best safe in the world and no hacker can penetrate.my etherscan (MyEtherwallet) was hacked coins stolen; little confused and sad;

So sorry to hear this cos I know how hard it is to work for something and someone else reaping the reward.. Be careful on your online activities next time though
You will not be able to return your money that has been taken by the hacker, all you can do is to create a new wallet, and keep your private key confidential.
being alert to efforts to prevent wallet hacking is the safest way to keep your funds from being lost
because crypto's assets are decentralized, where everything that has been sent is impossible to return
make this your experience, and of course in every experience there are lessons that you can get

MAKE THIS EXPERIENCE LAST AND AS YOUR BEST TEACHER !!
Yes of course; if still I do not learn a lesson ; myself again will be responsible for self destruction. though very costly lesson
My advice is that you have to make a new wallet and save your private key so that no one can steal it. After that, be careful with phishing sites because it is very dangerous and use anti-virus on your computer. And another one, you can use Hardware wallets like trezor and eWallet.
I think ETH wallet will not be easily stolen unless you expose personal information or your computer has been compromised. You have to remember that this is a battlefield and there will be hundreds of people wanting to break into your wallet.
So sorry to hear about that. Perhaps you were phished or probably careless with your private keys or your password was unsecured. Always look out for phishing sites and try as much as possible to use 2FA whenever you can.
Its a pity and this is a sad situation. Maybe, someone accessed your wallet through a phishing link.
