Can just someone tell me how the hacker checks for incoming transaction and sends it as soon as it gets 1 confirmation??

Also, its happening only on some addresses in the wallet.

It can not be moved with only 1 confirmation. Either the transaction was invalid, and from an orphaned block, due to it being fake... and returned back to the sender, or deleted if a double-spend... or you are not seeing that it actually had 6 actual confirms.

I can hack a block and it would show in your wallet... for at-least one-confirm... but as soon as the system sees it is fake, it removes it. Thus, it never made it past 6 confirms.

Where is this money coming from? The money you are seeing entering your wallet? If you are placing it there, then you should be worried. If this is from some automated payment system, you need to contact them to let them know the payments are not going through.

How does anyone see when you have money in there... simple... they just look at the block-info that you see. It is on everyones computer, and on that site, for the world to see.

Again... BTC can NOT be withdrawn by ANYONE if it was not validated (6+ confirms), unless a whole branch of fake transactions occurred on a block that was recently thrown-out, due to being invalid. (Thus, it was never your BTC to begin with. Thus, not a loss.)

If this was payment for something, you should wait for over 30 confirms... (120 to be realistic), before "accepting it as valid". People use double-spends and hacked blocks to fool automated systems. Those transactions do not survive 120+ confirms, unless a 51% attack is successful. No-one has 51% of the mining market.

Before you move.. format your PC. Take your docs, jpgs, etc, run them through a virus scan, etc.

Nobody can tell you exactly what's happened because we don't know. All we can tell you is that it sounds as if your wallet has been compromised, and some or all of your private keys have been stolen. So if you don't want to lose any more coins, move them now.

You need to make a NEW wallet on Blockchain.info right now on a different PC and transfer in the funds. You cannot use the BTC addresses in your old wallet ever again as the hacker can use them, no matter what, even you if change your passwords.

The hacker has a copy of your wallet, he has an application on his computer that will auto-send any fund you receive to that wallet to another address that he controls.

He probably has an old copy of the wallet which is missing some of your newer addresses.

Yes, but your wallet is compromised. Make a new one.

Yes it is probably hacked! Cry

But one more point is that, not ALL the bitcoins are transferred. I still have 1. remaining...


I have now enabled double password in My Wallet.

Double password is useless if they already have an unencrypted copy of your wallet file (which they probably do). Transfer the BTC to a new wallet immediately!

The most secure online wallet is BC.info as its the only where you retain control of your private keys.

I suggest you use a different PC in case it is infected and create a new BC.info wallet and transfer your BTC there.

I am already on Blockchain.info (which I think you were referring by saying BC.info)

Yeah, create a new blockchain.info wallet securely. Also, if your wallet has been hacked and someone has access to your private keys then move whatever BTC you have in that wallet immediately

Please tell me if the Private Key of this address is known?

We're not psychic, how would we know if someone stole your private key?

What I can tell you is the TX was probably created with a wallet other than Blockchain.info which most likely means they have a copy of your wallet file.

they must have your private key and use blockchain.info api from somewhere, is it possibile?
do you have pin or google authentication enabled?

Is it possible to check if the account was accessed from API??
