My I phone was hacked at 5:51 Am this morning.  I was just waking up and all 180 bitcoins were gone for a total of about 20K how do you track them down and get them back.  the adress that took them was

 1KSvqznN7YijagkZMDTP4yHwfarKjm9HrY    this address stole 178.9 bit coins

1diceDPtUMBpWgv8i4pG8HMjXv9QDJWN      this address took .901 bit coins

Question is how do you track down these criminals and how did they get into my phone and how did they get my password

I'm sorry to hear this. Most of the time your computer is compromised by spyware/keyloggers. They are administrated via browser vulnerabilities or hacked software and can search for wallet files, passwords and other info. Or, your account info was phished from a fake website. This is why Windows is not a good choice for an OS. Linux is free and way more secure.
