Hi bitcointalk users,

I am really asking for your help and understanding. Tonight i was hacked. My wallet (0x005AFd8B9823e54A398505e88DC62042C00a528E) was attacked during the night and someone stole around $260k. I entered the wallet to check my funds and found that half is missing. How can this happen? I mean i was never sharing my private key with anyone and .json file was in safe place. I was logged on with MetaMask for a long time and last time i shared my private key was in Etherdelta account 2 months ago. On my opinion, private key or .json could not have been compromised physically or by anybody.

Really stupid that this scammer started with tiny DATAcoin in amount of 0.57 cents... then Arcblock, Dragonchain and Nebulas and again Monaco $8 amount and then others. It looks really strange. Because other half of $250k amount he didnt touch. Here is scammers wallet (0xF2b4e6123F05D6b7c44Fefa4F0AD243E7d3A81cB). The other half was sent by me after 9-10 hours after scam to new wallet. Please can you have a look and help me with this issue? Any advices upon this issue?
If you saw that the hacker is transferring small amounts of coins you should have done action and transfer your coins to other MEW log on to another device because i suspect that the hacker has a keylog on your pc or other means just to get your private keys, sad to say you can't recover those coins anymore unless you know that person and you have a solid and valid evidence you may consider filing a case against him/her.
