This is like a case of someone following poor security procedures for their Social media account by getting their login credentials leaked and then when hackers gain access to his account, he goes on to blame the platform.

If Tab trader was hacked or indeed it's scam. Why would they go for just less than 1 BTC, yet they have thousands of traders using the app with a lot more money?
OP's API keys got probably compromised, and he still thinks it's tabtrader's fault. You can't blame someone else for your mistakes.

Suppose the password is leaked from where he got the email

On this point, I only benefited from the fact that my country does not support digital currencies, even if I go to the police who will not help me.

Thus, I found a way to evade responsibility

This is 101 Data Breach fyi.
Poloniex or Coinmana gets hacked. Some emails+passwords+some other info is then sold on darknet. Buyer gets the entire database and tries all entries on all similar websites, including other exchanges, wallets, emails, online banks, apps.

You can see how many times your email was leaked  and even set alerts on new inputs here: https://haveibeenpwned.com/ or here https://monitor.firefox.com/
Additionally you can use telegram bots and even see parts of your own password -> @mailsearchbot   

You ever wonder why you and mixicali are alone in this thread?
Because almost everyone else uses a strong password and doesn't reuse old passwords.
And just by using Google Signup you can eliminate this password altogether, because it uses a different security mechanism.

Mixicali, do you understand that you reused a leaked old password and a bad actor just logged into your account?
Just logged in. It means he had your login and password.
There is nothing wrong with an app.

You won't be blaming a thief if you leave keys to your apartment on the main market square in the city. And never change the locks after the first theft. And use the same keys in all your apartments, houses, security boxes.


Hello

So far, the app warning has been published via Facebook in two groups:
The first group is 6500 members .
The second group is 11500 members .

Still expanding and spreading .

The best course of action for you is to contact you local law enforcement.
Exchanges will be able to reveal bad actor identity because he was KYCed.
And you will be able to get your funds back.

Try to avoid the following your mistakes in future:
Do not to reuse old passwords
Do not use same passwords on multiple services
Do not use passwords with you name
Use strong unique passwords especially in financial services

Because ultimately your mistakes allowed the bad actor to simply login to your account. He was not even trying brute forcing, he just logged in. Because he knew your leaked password.

What happened to mixicali.

This user:
a) you were careless by reusing your password and also using the same passwords in multiple services.
b) this password leaked before multiple times and we showed you a service where anyone can purchase all your passwords.
c) among hundreds of thousand of users you were one the very few users who reused leaked passwords and was affected. You admitted that you reused a password from a previously leaked database.
d) our service is not hacked, no data breach happened, no funds were lost. If the app simply allowed hacking the bad actor would have stolen millions of dollars, which never happened.

Below is our post mortem explaining what happened in your case.

I was also stolen from the same app
When I spoke of support, this was their response
Hello,
We cannot really pay out any compensation legally, because there's no legal case.
As a company bond by law, we cannot possibly do it.
However we can grant you a lifetime PRO subscription. This is the least we could do for you. I'm very sorry.
Yes, they are procrastinating on us

Something very unfortunate that the owner of an app like this is an avid thief.
I was offere to him only half the compensation, but he refused, although he admitted that the breach was from him.
But we will not stop defaming.

I did not download a fake wallet but rather from the official website that referred me to the Google Store
That's not the only way you could have messed up. Phising and malwares can occur from many sides. You could have been infected with a different app, or you could have been hacked in other ways. Even your BitTrex could have been hacked somehow. However, those are only POSSIBILITIES. I'm not saying this is what happened. This is what COULD have happened with you or anyone else. And in the same way, that could have been their fault.

If the problem from me , how do I buy at a high price and sell at a cheap price?
Does this do sane?
I mean, if you somehow ended up leaking your API keys (malware, phishing, etc...), the user with possession of your keys could do any kind of trades (along with what permissions you choose for it) without any issues. They could, for example, buy or sell any coins they wanted for any price they wanted, which is what seems to have happened. When you give TabTrader your api key, they do all of this stuff in your name (selling, buying, trading, etc...). If a malicious actor also gets hold of that key - from you or TabTrader - , he can do the same, but in a way you didn't permitted and which benefits him (e.g selling low and buying high).

I'm not saying it's your fault and TabTrader is clean. And neither I said thats all their fault. Only them can give you an answer, and they said they are investigation, so you can only wait. In the end, I can only see them possibly giving you any kind of reimbursement if they admited it was their fault and that their system/app were breached, which we can't if it happened.

I hope it all goes well for you. I have used them before and never had any issues, but this doesn't make them hack-proof. Losing your coins like this is one of the most frustrating things that could happen with anyone.

There are some preliminary findings which we are trying to confirm.
Related to security issues in your app or OP simply getting his API keys compromised by something that was his entirely responsibility (e.g malware in his device, phishing, etc...). I'm not trying to spread any FUD, but if there is any possibility of your app being vulnerable in anyway, you need to disclose it.

I myself have used your app for quite some time and only stopped recently because you do not support my favorite local exchange, but I still have the app installed in my phone. I don't want to risky anything because of a possible issue on your part. =/

Now, if the issue is on your hands, OP, I can't see why TabTrader would return anything to you. Electrum or Bitcoin Core don't reimburse people if they get hacked or download a fake wallet.

Thanks for participating

I have done all the protection measures in my phone and I have been dealing for years with other sites and applications, and I have not been exposed to such before
How do you want me to lose something I have no reason for.
