Topic: My MEW wallet hacked... please help me (Read 462 times)
Forget about those coins that was stolen on your wallet, better to create a new MEW then transfer your remaining tokens before the hacker wipe all of them . And nextime be careful.
My ethereum wallet is one of the safest wallets to keep your coins in, but if you don't know how to use its private keys you may get hacked especially if you enter your keys in phishing websites. So be careful next time and for recovering your coins stolen from the hacker you can report him to the exchange he puts your coins in but if he keeps them somewhere else in cold wallet the situation will be tough to solve.
There is no way for you to get back the tokens you've ever owned, except hackers actively pay them for you.
Unfortunately.
You will have to be more careful, be responsible for your own property.
Condolences.

according to some experiences that I have experienced, with that incident you cannot do anything.
never use the MEW again, immediately to create a new MEW and always keep the Private Key that you have don't happen again.

There's no way to get back the transactions since it's irreversible. You should have more concerned earlier. Don't use any third party website where you need to share your private keys.
your private key got jacked but you say you KNOW you don't have malware...
you are part of a generation of crypto users that have no idea how to be their own bank
but for some reason you are storing your own coins, you dont even understand that crypto is not reversible...
ill never understand it : /

Sorry for your loss mate, I was a victim too late 2018; once tokens have been transferred there's nothing you can do although you can prevent it from happening again by bookmarking the right mew site and if there's any bounty you're working on write to them or you just watch ur address like a hawk and move any token that comes in before the thief does.
No he still have an option if the hacker address is monitor or reported but the OP seems to have loose hope cause I can someone who already have search and knew the exchange site where the coins are held now and the OP didnt say anything.To moniter the hacker's address what they can do?
If you have the address you may track till it moves to the exchangers hand after it will keep on moves to other when other sells that ethereum or any coins to other person.
Waste of time on tracking it.
But the verdict will still depend on the exchange if they will allow it or not. Otherwise, they will answer that they don't care about outside transaction because it's no longer their responsibility and range of their jurisdiction.

I hear this in bounty so often. What is the matter with you people? How do you kose your private key? I don't even understand how you lost your funds. Did you get hacked or do something stupid? I've never ever been hacked not even once. How on earth did you do it. I want to know. What do you people do? Do you copy paste the private key where you shouldn't. I just don't understand.
How much did you have in your wallet btw?

There is no other way to deal with the problem you are experiencing, if your MEW wallet is leaking it is your risk to keep a secret,
It's even very difficult to track down someone who has an MEW wallet.
So things like this can make the next experience

What wallet software you have used before the hack happens?
You might used a phishing website for MEW or your device's totally infected with malware. Please double check the url you're using and if possible always use an AV.
Hope this will serve as a lesson to you. Btw sorry for the loss.
Yes, this is true, this could have happened because at this time the phishing site was made very similar to the original so that it could outwit the less careful users. Keep careful for everyone, when the price of bitcoin rises, the crime rate will increase too. You might used a phishing website for MEW or your device's totally infected with malware. Please double check the url you're using and if possible always use an AV.
Hope this will serve as a lesson to you. Btw sorry for the loss.
If you loose the fund it cannot be recovered unless the user whom took can give the fund back.
MEW seems most attacked wallet because the users are really do not give more attention over security and do not check the URL.
Please read their privacy policy and see what you can do. No one here to help you on this.

I think you got phished. Getting your funds back is nearly impossible for me. I recommend you buy a separate computer for cryptocurrency related things only and if you can buy a ledger to store your funds go buy one. This is not the first time that I've heard of a MEW getting hacked. My friends also got phished because of virus in his laptop.
Sad to say but you will never recover your account because it's hacked by the hacker. So next time be careful where you going to post or store your private key. I would like to recommend you to use brave browser to avoid popping ads that will infect your PC.

Once transaction has been done. Reverting back is only possible if the receiver end can help you, unless you can take the fund back to your wallet. If the person moved the fund from the MEW. I am sure definitely they will need to ETH at there.
I want to know will you access your wallet regularly or once in a while. If you check it all the time I am sure you might find the transaction there itself.

Even if you give 50% of your assets no one can help you on your situation. The best thing that you can do is to take out all the assets on that wallet before the hacker steal them all .

Your crypto is gone and it is nearly impossible to get it back. The only thing that possibly works is if you let exchanges know and they block the user that deposits from those addresses. It has to be a large amount for them to help and any hacker with common sense will be able to hide the source.
Once the transfer is confirmed theres no other way to reverse it. You already knew that your account was hacked , and you still have time to post here you only giving the hacker enough time to steal all your coins.

Transactions are irreversible thats why recovery is impossible and tracing the hacker wont be that easy.This is some lesson learn for you
that you should be serious on keeping your private keys safe or simply storing your coins in a hardware wallet or also writing PK's on a
piece of paper which isnt really prone to public either offline or online.
So sorry about that,its one of those things. i don't think there is a way to recover an hacked wallet. since you are still young in the forum, i sense you may not have much on your wallet and i will advise you to open another without delay and take heart.be more carefull with your private keys next time.
Sorry to hear that. I think it is very hard to get it back once it has been transferred from eth wallet. You should be more cautious in using ether wallets and coins. In my opinion, it is best to use metamsk and do not click on malicious web links.
oh man, it will be very hard to get them back (impossible, I say)
Next time you should use hardware wallet or use a secondary device (i.e. secondary phone) that is always disconnected from the internet and you only use it to transfer your coins

This is all, your balance is lost forever. The only thing I can advise you is to try to buy a hardware wallet, for example Tresor or Ledger, they are very good in service and safe. If you do not have such a possibility then you should create a new MEW and be careful now not to download questionable applications,not to transfer your private key, add-ons, software and the like. Do not visit questionable sites and do not click on the first link. Good Luck To You!

The transaction is irreversible and you cannot get your coins back.
If you can track them to an exchange, like erikalui said, maybe you have a small chance. His funds would be frozen, but it's not likely they will give them to you back...
treat this as nothing at all, learned from this mistake.
If i were you i will make immediate action before its too late, seriously you cant do anything to get back what has been stolen on your account.

there is no way to recover your balance as many other said above you put your private key into a phishing website
so the one thing maybe you can do now is just forget it and move on from that address
so the next maybe you can install metamask so by using that you can know if the MEW website you visited is a phishing or not
Majority of crypto transactions including ethereum aren't reversible, so there's no way for anyone here to retrieve your ethereum from the hackers wallet address although you're offering quite good amount for the share of it.
The wallet of OP is still active in transferring tokens as of the moment.
You might used a phishing website for MEW
Just like my guess, OP please bookmark the official MEW website: myetherwallet.comThe wallet of OP is still active in transferring tokens as of the moment.
This is not a Meta problem so please move this to "Investigations" board as the issue seems more appropriate there. Regarding your coins, I don't think you will be able to recover it since it is already gone and you can't get them unless the hacker sends back (which is hard to happen anyway). I would suggest to check for virus or malwares inside your system so that it doesn't happens next time.
The same thing happened to me in 2017 and it was a phishing strategy that did me in. Now, as to the tokens or coins already transferred to another wallet, it would really be impossible to get them back. The best thing to do is to move on and learn from the incident so that it can never happen again to the victim. Sadly, this is the reality we are in. Once it is gone, it is gone. We have to remember what happened to Binance which became helpless as the stolen cryptocurrency are transferred to new addresses. Cryptocurrency can be dangerous if we are not careful.
You know what the problem is. This cheater is no longer available. One mistake here is too expensive. If you are a hunter you should turn to all the project with a request to replace your wallet. Inachi scammer does not stop. Since you were hacked, you need to completely check your computer and the links that you follow. Then create a new wallet.
There is a chance that you have placed your private key somewhere around the box. Someone saw and used it.

Still I would suggest to check for an irregular processes/malwares working in background process. Though it is upto you to leave it or take it
.If you shared the access by putting into a phising site like bl4nkcode said then it seems like you need to be more aware of scam tactics going on nowadays. 
In the case of crypto, nothing can be recovered after the wallet has been hacked and since I've also suffered a similar hack, I know how it feels. Sorry for your loss. I can see that you still have some coins left so kindly move them out asap but since you don't have Ether left, it would be tough as your private key is already stolen.
You can post a comment here so people know the address belongs to a hacker: https://etherscan.io/address/0x8fb6db554aafb1452e5982a6f4a0dcf5c4dfcc8e#comments
Contact Mercatox asap as the hacker has transferred METM tokens to their address: [email protected]
If you provide Mercatox some proof that your wallet has been hacked, they can freeze that account and probably return your tokens. Just try your luck and hopefully you'll succeed.
