Well, i learned my lesson. Having access on phone is nice so i can transfer when I'm not in front of my machine at home, but agree that's only good for limited amounts. Fortunately, I've lurked here long enough to learn about cold storage and how to set that up disconnected from network so I'm safe. I PM'd the other guy that got hacked in the same transaction but haven't hear back yet. Right now it would appear blockchain.info is the common factor, but if he was running same program on phone I'd probably consider that another possible weak link.

New wallet, one location.

Probably unrelated, but in my case: I had only one or two apps installed. Android OS. The only app I remember was a GPS satellite monitoring program...I'd replaced the phone recently because the GPS had given out. Phones generally are not my thing and I mainly use it for it's navigation functions.

I was out of cell range, but hooked up to a friend's satellite via wi-fi (way way out a rural area where there is just about zero chance that the wi-fi was hacked unless through the friend's hard-wired compute or ipad or router.) I received a chat and it was in some foreign script. I then noticed that my keyboard had changed to Arabic.

Later that evening, I noticed several unusual drafts in my outbox so I am pretty sure that the attacker had accessed my e-mail. I left the house not long after my the chat, so it is possible that the attacker got cut off and did not get a chance to fully do what he wished and/or clean up successfully.
