this is according to what I think, I believe the time used to be when you become bounty. you never register bounty using PRIVATE KEY obviously everyone will be able to see your account. because many people are like you, your guard keeps P.P.K . 
Topic: Private key is not safe (Read 789 times)
I think you might go to the clone MEW website where the programmer is used to duplicate your private key and after that your asset is stolen. But, if you know your ethereum address, then we can understand what the problem is here. I do not understand what your worries? How others can retrieve your private key by sending ethereum to a Specific address
I hold part of my funds on MEW and always use JSON file + password verification. It would be even safer to use it in tether with MetaMask, but I'm a bit idle moving my eth there.
Private key are not safe these days. I've had this experience.
Why do you think so? Can you tell me about your experience?Because I still use a private key. If you're right, I'd like to buy a cold wallet.
The most possible that the hacker did is not steal your private key with you but I think he uses some site wherein you used your private key to open your account, some are using this thing to have a look in your account key when you use it even just one time, so next time careful with the site you use.
You are not correct mate. When you use the private key with the phising site you will be having possibilities to loose the fund with the MEW wallet access with the scam site access mate.
There are many fake sites are there in the market like that to steal your fund.
If you have private key secured there is very possibility to take the fund.
The fault will be from you because there is no way another person will know your private key if you keep it safe and you are careful with how you display your information especially when you try to access your account. Private keys should be kept private and avoid exposing it to a third party and do not use a third party web service when trying to access your information.
Recently there way myethereum wallet hack and people lost money which isn't their fault, etherdelta hack too. But mostly it is their fault, they download suspicious file with keyloger or they enter private key into phishing site without knowing it is phishing site. Private key is safe, people are doing terrible mistakes.

It's also possible that hackers able to penetrate your computer or your device private keys is your obligation to protect and avoid being hacked, but since hackers will do everything as well better to do extra effort to avoid being penetrated by this evil doers, we need to be more responsible if we wanted tocontinue and being safe inside this industry.

MEW does not hold your keys for you. We cannot access accounts, recover keys, reset passwords, nor reverse transactions. Protect your keys & always check that you are on correct URL. You are responsible for your security. So its impossible to steal your funds in your wallet without undertaking some of phising sites. 
Private key is not safe if you dont know how to place them in a safe and secured place and if youre aware to different hacking attempts.

your explanation is so unclear that I find it hard to explain, when your account was hacked how it started and how is it possible if you use double security.No one will answer to his because already he maintained double security but how can the hacker steal your money. It means maybe the person clicked the phishing link and this might be chance for the hackers to steal the coins in ERC20 wallets.

You are probably hacked by a phishing attack, always double check that the link is well written.
It is better to bookmark the MEW page.

yeah maybe
i guess this gay got a phising attack. thats why his MEW hacked
i told you dont tell anyone your private key dude
keep them safe, and always check the web of MEW www.myetherwallet.com
everyone can got phised if they're not carefully.
why it can happen if we know that myetherwallet security is very good almost using some verification first maybe you have been mistaken with what you do when transact so that your wallet is still open and it makes it easier for hackers to steal your coins.
Nobody can hack your private keys. The hackers wont get your private key unless you give them. I suggest you to get a pendrive and store your passwords and private keys in that. Also dont give your private keys to anyone and allow your trusted buddies to use your laptop or pc. Also dont try to open your wallets from internet cafes. Its not safe.
Some people claim quamtum computing will make your sentence wrong. But as far as we know today it is rather impossible indeed.
first of all quantum computing is still dream of future which is not near .
2nd thing if we able to achieve it then we will solve many such problems , and at that time tech of wallet providers also will be advanced . we may see something new like btc in 2008 .
till then we can enjoy current blockchain tech .

dont ever used that wallet again cause is now being monitored by the hacker every coins that will arrived in that address will be sent to the hackers wallet immeditely.Everything will work when we have some backup only if we have secure wallets by protecting the private keys. Once if they loose private key it is impossible to recollect private keys.
There's no problem if you guys are using MEW (Myetherwallet) for receiving your Ethereum or any ERC20 tokens.
The problem is you are being phished, YES!
You logged in to a website that looks like MEW and you put your private keys into it.
The solution to this one is don't be so ignorant with the website you are visiting especially if your private key is at stake.
Bookmark MEW and your problem is done.

Even though you bookmarked the mew site , private keys option is still unsafe for unlucking your mew account because you can always get easily hack wherever you accidentally paste it somewhere like for example on the bounty or airdrop form , some people mistaken their eth erc20 adress to be their private keys and as a result hackers can enter their wallet silently. But anyways , your suggestion is still good and would greatly lessen the risk of phising and hacking attacks.

Hi.
You really should pay attention to his private key. Something similar happened to me. Be that only USB stick and the old-fashioned way to write on a piece of paper. When it comes to money, you have to be really careful.
