There is a (new?) trojan wallet stealer out in the wild ATM.

Plenty of script kiddies and scammers are going to be trying to get you to download and install it, what's more they'll be putting posts to do so (using lies obviously).

Don't install anything linked to on this forum, unless it's been found by someone with a good reputation to be legit. Assume everything is an attempt to steal your wallet.

You should also encrypt your wallet when not in use.

Here is a portable apps version http://www.freeotfe.org/downloads/FreeOTFEExplorer_3_51.paf.exe

You have been warned.

Funny!  So, if I were to click on those links, would it take me to this wallet stealing trojan?  Tricky situation there and also kinda funny.  I guess that I have been warned here.

Encrypting your wallet when not in use is no protection as you have to decrypt to use it. Trojans lie in wait until an unencrypted wallet.dat is found, and some also have keyloggers to steal your password. I have been preaching bitcoin hardware wallets for a year now to encourage using Trezor or Ledger to move private keys off your laptop or phone. Once you have your bitcoin stolen you will become a believer.

Harware wallets are also not the ultimate solution, they can protect you against virtual theft but not against physical theft.

If a robber robs you with a gun and sees your hardware wallet he will force you to reveal your pasword. This case will probably be more frequent in the future than virtual trojans sneaking on your PC.

Once criminals learn abotu bitcoin, it will be more frequent than mobile phone thefts.


So hardware wallets may not be the best solution.

It would be best if you use trusted & reputable online wallets like xapo, green address or coinbase and stop worrying about your bits getting stolen! This is because those sites are highly secured and can't be hacked so easily! (thinking of hacking them is like planning to hack Google's database Tongue ) Moreover they store your bitcoins in cold wallets where hackers will never be able to reach! And did I forget mentioning that they are free and doesn't take any extra transaction or yearly account fees ?

Still, if you aren't able to fully trust them, then head on to http://bitaddress.org and create more than one paper wallets according to your needs (if you are paranoid, then download their website package from GitHub and create offline)

I think that should be enough not to worry about your wallet.dat getting compromised again.

And if you want to run bitcoin nodes and secure the blockchain by installing Bitcoin core wallet, then consider installing the best Antivirus programs like Norton 360 for extra safety.

Got some blockchain.info phishing mails de last couple of weeks... But Huh ... Wait Undecided ... That email adress is never used on blockchain.info  Roll Eyes

Its easy to shield your PC against trojans, have a decent antivirus, good firewall, and scan links before clicking it.

Like the OP with -8 negative trust expects us to click those links, maybe he is the one spreading the virus? One of the site is even down, which is strange...?
It may look strange but there is nothing to be afraid of in the OP... It's a 4 year old post...

I also got a phishing mail, I too have never used the mail on blockchain.
I traced the e-mail, below is where it came from
The first in the list is the ip origin, then it came through the others to me.
I reported and attached the mail to [email protected]

Trojan horse viruses are very dangerous.
If it can affect our wallet then there will be no safety to our bit coins also. Thanks for the tip.

So any how this was from ages ago when my wallet got got hacked

This is a follow-up to your previous request #39682 "HACKED WALLET"

Hello

Why can I not send this amount out from my wallet

0.0001235 btc
yet the the last transaction out is of a similar amount ,it was made by the hacker, not me? this is one of his many wallets 1EkF4Ja2ZJXwh1seskMTCgngQiUhuUCfu7
This hacker takes without paying fees

Block chain could not help me regarding this, the hacker could take funds but I could not

This is where blockchain lets you down, they dont even give rewards for reporting these type of scammers /trojans/thieves.

Hello,

This is definitely a scam email - DO NOT click on any of the links. Blockchain.info will never ask for your passwords or private account information via email. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We can initiate a takedown of phishing sites like this with the URL, but again, be sure to *never* click on it.

Thank you.

But I do take the risk to get the real IP of the sender.

I ddos the fucker  Cheesy

Thank you.
