Well, it doesn't work always because there are numerous ways hackers can get rid of the funds either by selling them in escrow group, or meet buyer in person. It's now the fate of the person that bought from them.

Staying in the shade, this is the safer way for those hackers to hide their identities while they are stealing other's people funds.

It's even easier if they use Mixer service or swap them in Wallets like Exodus to another coin completely.

Walking under the sunlight in the middle of the day, if the hacker do this (I don't think so), they are not this dumb, I mean even if they swap them in wallets, it is still possible to track that address through blockchain.

This is so Painful I can imagine, but the truth right now is that there is really nothing anyone can do. The hacker can't be stopped because he has your private key, the best you can do now is to move on ,create a new one and act like the old wallet never existed. This time be careful of phishing sites, also keep your private key safe.

what can I do to stop it
I have no evidence

the hacker's address is 0xEEBbC9888fD8Ec5dFC267a915664780c8fa66426

My address is 0xd125a58b966dc8bdf10489fd910ca929934a0dbc

It happened in Jun 6th

I guess I download a virus altcoin wallet and the hacker found my private key in my desktop

There have been many people I have met complaining about the loss of crypto assets because someone hacked it and this is happening to you. There is no way to return your assets, it's just that it's very important to anticipate unwanted things happening again. My advice is do not save the private key on a computer that is always connected to the internet, save it on a harddisk, flashdisk or a device that has never been connected to the internet. if you want to more easily and securely store your assets, store them in a hardware wallet, just simply prepare around $ 70 to buy them. as long as I use the hardware wallet does not have any problems.

Tracing your funds is not really difficult since all transaction are recorded in the blockchain though it will take some of your time and effort, also there are group of people or organizations who are very good at it. There are some cases where criminals was caught when they convert their crypto to fiat through an exchange platform since most of the exchange is KYC compliant.

It's just unfortunate situation. Best way to save your coins is to use hardware wallet like last ledger.

it's possible that your wallet was hacked by someone and that person got your private key wallet.
or it could be that your device is under the control of a hacker.

If a private key has been stolen by hacker i think he was hit by a scam like filling in the bounty form or airdrop sent to an email because i often get emails like that. And another possibility for the device to be infected with a virus and retrieve some important data

Or maybe trapped to phising site that clone some wallet like MEW in past, they are collected a lot of people's private key and they are almost similar with original website. About that we must be careful when to visit wallet site and make sure the address is really the original. Because some phising sites just use a combination of letters that are almost have same shape. Like I and l (which sometime if people not really aware will think both are same letter)

I think it will be very difficult to recover assets that have been hacked by others because if A hacker who gets access to your private key / password wallet of course the hacker can move funds from your wallet to anywhere in the world, and will be difficult to trace because its anonymous nature, I think if the wallet we have has been hacked by someone else it is better for us to immediately replace the new wallet address rather than to strengthen the security of the wallet address that was once hacked again because of the opportunity of being hacked again and if it is possible to immediately move the remaining assets owned from a wallet that has been hacked.

What do you say, how can you make a hacker to return the crypto even if you found him? You just have to be careful.And accept the loss your crypto. Because the hacker isn't a fool, he is smart if he could pick up the key but still he is a moral freak and a criminal. Although this isn't easier for you.
I sympathize with you. I had several times whan the hacker took the ETH after my trading on EtherDelta and FD

I was a victim of my wallet being hacked. It can be due to login your private key in a phishing system that require you to sign in using your private key. Secondly it can be you were careless with your private key. There is nothing to be done . Just get a new wallet address and keep your private key safe and most importantly always use trust wallet or imtoken and metamask (when login on site).

Often this happens when downloading files someone can find a method to hack our wallet. I'm the most avoiding and a little afraid when I have to download a wallet because most people experience what you experience, especially the wallet downloaded is not well known. The way to secure your wallet from hackers is to keep your private key in another place, don't keep it in the same place.

Some bounty campaigns require to download and install untrustworthy wallets to receive bounty payments, so people are pushed to do this for few bucks and maybe you will be surprised, but most of them really do that and there is the problem.
Be careful everything could be pwned.

Something fishy about this idea. Most of the bounty use ETH contract so there is no way you need to download a wallet if you have already ETH wallet. This things will work only if the project have thier own blockchain and you really need to download that wallet or else you will not get paid.

This is sad dear. You just have to live with it and move on. Unless you know who and where the hacker stays, it might be a waste of time trying to track him.

these things have happened to most of them, so its better to be careful while you are having large amount. there are things you should learn how to keep your wallet more secure and what are the best secure ways to keep your coins safe. im sorry about your Lost, but try to send your remaining coins to another safe wallet if you can access to your wallet. these things are common so dont get upset, learn from it. have a nice day!

First off, get a new wallet, because that hackers ca control your wallet already. its quite unfortunate the asset cant be recovered again. you have to let go and hopefully learn a lesson of how careful you should be when online. My wallet too got hacked last year, the scammer made away with all the asset, i was depressed at first, took some time off crypto.

after some while, i came back and determined i will be extra careful and wont allow such occurrence repeat it self again.

you did the right thing. Do not leave the market which can give you a huge amount of opportunities due to any losses. It’s just a lesson that you needed to learn

You cannot back your token so better to create new acc because your private key was already on other person so don't use it again.

There are a lot of fake links and dummy site that can get your money or we can say a phishing method where you can input your accounts like a normal site.

Cannot return lost tokens or coins.. Cryptocurrecy is keeping before stolen, not taking back the stolen. My advice, do not ever store data on your desktop, because the windows system is vulnerable to viruses. If your computer has a problem with Windows, the system will also be reset, and the data will also be lost. The safest data is stored using notepad and rar. If you save data using Microsoft Office it is also vulnerable to viruses, and data cannot be opened.

so many people store their data in google tables. I ve read that this is not the safest place to store data - therefore, it is best to store your password on a USB flash drive

Google Drive is indeed not a safe place to store private data. In Google Drive where you store public data.
We can lock data, but it can be published accidentally.
USB drive is a problem if it is damaged, or lost. But this rarely happens.

To avoid the problems you listed, it will be enough to duplicate backups to several USB drives. In this case, even if you lose one, you will still have two more.
People make a very big mistake when they are lazy or neglect the ability to make several backups. I consider it a necessity.
