Op it's better you just forget about that wallet and creat a new one, because anything that will cause you to mistakenly make deposit into that wallet it would be a case of charity. so just dump the wallet after all, you don't have much asset there so you could even decide to use a new brand of wallet for proper security. And I also advise that when you get your new wallet, do well to secure your seed phrase well. I can't imagine that someone guessed your seed phrase and got it right, but I believe it was due to your misplacement of your seed phrase that lead to some one having access to it. So you could buy a water proof and fire proof safe to luck your seed phrase do that you'll be the only to know the passkey to the safe.

Why you give some one else has access with your wallet? I think is very bad ideas when some one know your seed phrase wallet and better forget your wallet and create new wallet without any one else know seed phrase. If some one know with your seed phrase wallet its not your coins any more because not your key is not your coins and I worried some one else have put bot set up and receiving fund automatically sent our your assets.

Actually seed phrase wallet is most sensitive, you can't share to any one else because we can't believe with their reputation are there our wallet and assets keep secure when have some one get information with seed phrase. For your coins saving fund use new wallet and protect it without any one know seed phrase and connect and make approving with trust site only.

I am not clear about how you lost your wallet or recovered the wallet. If you have given your seed phrase to someone else or become a victim of hacking, take immediate action to secure your assets and change your seed phrase to protect your funds. It is best if you don't make any new plans with the wallet. Stop using such wallets to avoid future losses. To ensure the security of your wallet, use a wallet to store the wallet seed phrase and never share it with anyone.

The moment you discovered your wallet has been compromised or someone have your phrase code of your wallet is very risky to leave your assets in that wallet, it's good to move all the funds to a new wallet that no one has asses to it.

Op may have made a mistake she shared her wallet seed phrase with someone else which means that someone else now has access to her wallet.His control of that wallet is now completely with someone else so if he keeps his assets in that wallet he will make another mistake. And create a new wallet as soon as possible and replace its assets there. Not your key Not your Coin

To keep our wallet safe and secure, the wallet seed phrase needs to be kept highly secure.

Not much. Just forget about the wallet and use a new one.
I too in past have lost my wallet with 4 digit sums to a hacker. Not sure how they got hold of it but there could be two reasons I could think of where I was not cautious.
Once I opened my wallet in a pirated version of Windows. Pirated software are known to have clipboard watcher and keyloggers. And the likelihood of getting a spyware are also greater in Pirated software.
Another mistake of mine was to store my private key in google drive. Many app we use do ask to read and modify our drive data. They might theoretically get hold of our wallet.

How did you recover your wallet phase? Even if you are in recovery I would tell you to stop using your wallet and never plan to move forward with this wallet. Because whenever your wallet phase is passed to someone else then I think your wallet will never be safe so if you stop using this wallet now then you won't be harmed later. Finally I would like to tell you keep your wallet seed phrase very safe so that no one can steal it.

Sorry about that but do you still have access to the wallet? If yes, make a withdrawal of the fund in there and swap my creating another wallet but yet if you don't have access to the wallet, then I still console with you if you find $14 unaffordable to loose.
Please do create yourself with another wallet and be careful this time for seed phrases are accessible keys to your wallets.
Also, don't forget to let your campaign manager know you have a change of wallet. That's if you are in any campaign

Asking about what bad things will happen, of course you already know the answer. You don't have to wait for answers from other people. If someone has your wallet phrase and it only contains $14 then throw it away and forget it, create a new wallet and secure the phrase. But why someone else owns your wallet phrase is a serious question. you need to evaluate what you are doing so that other people have it. The wallet phrase must be stored properly and don't let anyone have it other than you.

My first question is how does someone have your wallet phrase? This is something that is meant to be a secret between you and your wallet. Did you store it carelessly? Because even if someone tried to get it from the app you’re using, they need to provide some form of Authentication. This is coming a bit later than when you made the topic but if you can, you should send out the money to a new wallet and be more conscious of your security because next time you could have a lot more money in there. I just hope you took the best steps.

Did someone withdraw your funds already OP? If there is suspicious activity, it is good not to touch or make a deposit in that account as it was compromised already, abandon it is the best thing to do.

I'm not sure what really happened to your wallet or if it was hacked already but in that case, it is possible to no longer see your funds anymore.
Creating a new one is necessary but you should keep your keys/phrases safe and out of sight from others or else, that still be going to happen again and again. Don't get easily fooled by hackers and scammers, they will target greedy and innocent people. Think first and do research before making a decision.

Just send your coins to the new wallet.

Also, just leave that old wallet that has been compromised. If there are still some balances left, that's what he must do, send it asap to another wallet of his.

I made a mistake and bought Retik Tokens in presell which result that I probably won't see nothing from it, on the other hand I know someone who can do something and get my eth back(eth which I bought these tokens with),for that matter he need the control (with my wallet secret phrase).

I know it sound extrmely scammy but ,worse case is he will get the crappy retik tokens(currently hadn't been claimed yet...and plus 14$)...

On the other hand , if it not a scam like I can get my eth back...he asked me to move all my assets from my wallet before getting control of it. He was honest on that thing

Your seed phrase is the key to your wallet. I don't know why you will share it with someone else. This should be confidential. If your seed phrase is being exposed, it's advisable not to use such wallet anymore because your coin/token isn't save anymore.

Never make that mistake again, even if you were trying to get some of your money back by giving your seed words to someone else, you could have tried to solve this by asking that person to give you the instructions while you were following along, allowing you to make an attempt to get your ETH back without giving away your seed words, and while the mistake will not be costly, as at most you will lose 14 dollars, if you do not change your ways you could make this mistake again and lose way more money than that.

What exactly are you looking for by creating this topic? If you were trying to spread awareness, then you should have shared how this happens so that others can be careful when doing something similar. Creating a new wallet won't cost any money so i guess you have already created a new account, and you should move your leftovers to the new wallet as well. That hacker will transfer everything that is on that compromised wallet so if its possible just move your funds.

Even though you only have 14$ in the wallet don't keep them there again and don't use the wallet again because the. Person will used the seed phrase to collect all your funds whether big or small. And I wanted you to do some security measures on the wallet but there is no need just leave that wallet and use another wallet. Because according to a popular saying, "prevention is better than cure" many people have done that mistake of keeping their seed phrase in an open place and their friends saw air and use it to scam them back again so in your new wallet you are using please keep it in a secret places so that it will not leak our again.

Keep your seed phrase in a safe place.

Just forget that wallet and how did you ever gave that seed phrase of yours to that person? Don't do the same mistake in the nearest future as we're about to get into the bull run.

This is the hard part when the market is like this, the scammers are also aggressive and taking advantage of someone's greediness.

Don't be greedy, maybe telling us the whole story on how you ended up giving it to that guy. I'm guessing that this is related to airdrop or recovery or anything that you have encountered with a problem.

It's not about greed.
I made a mistake and bought Retik Tokens in presell which result that I probably won't see nothing from it, on the other hand I know someone who can do something and get my eth back(eth which I bought these tokens with),for that matter he need the control (with my wallet secret phrase).

Okay.

If that's an honest deal that you've got having to talk with that guy. As long as you move your assets first out of that wallet and it has nothing left there.

Then, you won't have anything to get hacked and scammed for. But I'm not confident with that process because I am not so familiar with it, if anyone has got experience with that, much better to explain more about it.

The worst case scenario is that a hacker has access to your Google account or device. So you have to trace how they got your phrase key. Use an anti-virus to scan your device so that any malware or trojans can be removed immediately. Use a new wallet for your next transaction and make sure you store it well so you don't lose other assets.

If you're aware that someone have the access with your private keys, then better to abandoned that wallet and of course don't forget to reset your computer because that could be the reason why your wallet get compromised. Don't try to deposit any funds there as you are just giving free money to the hacker. This happened to many wallets already, so make sure to use every security available and don't ever share it to anyone.
