Topic: Waveswallet hacked 126544 WCT stolen. Please help me! (Read 271 times)

Hacked victims are actually a human error, because hackers are always finding a victims, hackers are those people good on accessing any possible unsafe accounts or gadgets that can  easily entered any malware systems. If you noticed your gadgets sometimes there is a auto downloaded application, beware of that, because it is a form of hackers instruments to accessed your files.

Waves doesn't have 2fa so it is not the safest wallets to keep all your coins in. For better safety keep half on an exchange and half in your wallet. If one gets hacked you've only lost half of your coins. Pick a good exchange though like binance or bittrex or even cryptopia, one that has 2fa authentication.

it is impossible to take back hacked coins , if hackers did it smartly then you cant trace him .
you should be careful from starting , bcoz its only our own fault which lead to hack .

Today march 11 and i must save not stolen token to make exchange on dex and sent to my new Waves dsctop wallet

You maybe a victim of a phishing website or airdrop and you accidentally pasted your seed. Be careful next time. Use separate wallet for Airdrops and Bounties.

I know...maybe it has something to do with the waves fee due for any transfer? but that does not make sense because he/she did this 'donation' as the last transfer...

It's quite strange. Because if someone had access to your computer he or she would have stolen all your funds, not sending you back anything...

It is hard situtaion. There are many contest on Waves account. They create a different seed combination and they promise the treasure in that adress.

It is dangerous I think.

I don't keep the balance on my Waves account never. I don't know why but it is not safe for me. Maybe so difficult but not impossible to solve seed key. Many bot can scan adress and if found anything can withdraw one adress. (Yes I know very very difficult but WHO can say it is not possible?)

Thanks for chiming in i do respect your words ,)

But i rater take that chanse than using a private wallet.

Sorry to say that but almost all exchanges has been hacked in the past, so Binance will not be an exception. Of course not all exchanges closes their doors when it get hacked, it depends of the amount hacked. Sometimes, you don't even know directly that an exchange has been hacked, and problems occurs only once insolvability is discovered  

Do you really prefer give your trust in somebody else than you for holding your money ? Seems like you're not here since a long time.

Google auth doesn't protect Binance' wallet   So your coins aren't protected by your double authentification.

To protect you from fire, you just need to store a backup in another place from where you live, and for burglary, just hide the fact you own cryptocurrencies (Btw if someone points a gun to rob you, if you have these coins on an exchange or in a private wallet doesn't change anything), and encrypt your wallet.


@giovanni83 : sorry for your loss, but we can't do anything for that  

You think binance will do that ? the answer is NO. I see so many have problems with hardware wallets. Hack,sync problems and the list goes on. If you not trust your exchange why even think about trading there ? by the way i use Google Authentication

I received a transaction with this attachement promising free waves:

DO NOT ENTER YOUR SEED ON THIS ADDRESS, I REPEAT DO NOT ENTER YOUR SEED ON THIS ADDRESS, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!

Do you think that keeping your coins in an exchange wallet is a good idea? IMO, it is the worst decision you can take with your crypto-investments. If you keep your coins in the exchanges, then the risks multiply by twofold. In addition to the risk that someone can hack in to your account, there is the additional risk that the exchange can vanish with all of your coins.

Is this really a hack?  I see this word getting thrown around a lot.  The wallet was not hacked or else every waves wallet would be hacked.

It seems to me someone got your private keys.

The best advice (and this sucks) is to get back on the horse and ride it again.  I know easier said then done but it's the only option.  Either that or quit.  You can remake it up.  You got there before and you can do it again.  Once you have gotten back to where you were you will be much stronger.  Make a positive out of this as hard as it may be.  Good luck!

sorry for your loss dear friend. but no one here will help you recover your wct. there's no way for it to recover. all transaction on crypto is irreversible. better secure your wallet next time. and run an anti-virus for malware.

Someone got your private key . You should be more careful storing your passwords next time . I think it's impossible to return your funds , but it is possible to keep your passwords in more secure place in a future. I can suggest you to store all private keys and login to your wallets only from dedicated device . Of course , you shouldn't use this device for anytning else , excluding this . This will significantly improve safety of your funds

I am afraid you cant recover your coins,because it was already sent to another wallet you it is now unrecoverable,sorry for your lost bu i dont think it is possible to hack your wallet,surely the hacker got your private keys using phishing sites or some malwares you could prevent this attack if you have some good anti virus in your computer or you have installed metamask extension to prevent phishing sites.

That is, this wallet can be easily hacked and it is better not to use it? I just use only MEW and wanted to register the waves wallet but now I don't know whether to do it or not.

How could that have happened... Did any of your security detail my chance get into the hand of another party?
Care and appropriate precautions really need to be taken when dealing out anything. Also, i feel if this was not a mistake made on the side of the wallet owner, Wave platform need to improve on their wallet. Predictions i think i so easy to make on waves platform.

He seems to be a noob in cryptocurrency world so i guess someone stole his funds through a website that look the same as waveswallet website
