I'm hacked victim,I used my etherwallet to received my assets..but why hacker know my pivate key? Hacker is sent ethereum into my wallet and used as a gas to get all my coins..how it all happened  guys.?
To be simple it was happen because you failed to kept your private key, because private key is unique no one can know that aside from you and the system of ether wallet. If you notice the private key were compose of alphanumeric together with small and large letter, so it is impossible to take it in one blink of eye. To many users, its better if you cannot save your private key into your PC or in the phone, because many intruders taking that chance to get your amount in your wallet.

I do save my private keys on my pc and also in my cellphone and so far i did not experience any problem. I do also use myetherwallet for a verry long time up until now and i also didnt experience to get hacked. Maybe the op has accidentally paste his private key on an an aidrop or on a bounty form , because anyone can always take a look in the spreedshets.  Phishing sites is also another factor that i can think of. You know , mew is verry popular when it comes to phisihing sites. this is because mew uses a private key as primary tool to login your account.
Yes, me too I save my prikey in my pc and my phone until now it's very safe. I don't often see myetherwallet, just once a week to make sure the tokens I have still there or not and see the price conditions. In OP status is indeed a lot of possibilities, there is the possibility of too often open myetherewallet will be seen by hackers or log in at MEW fake site.With the rise of cryptocurrency at the moment, most likely the focus of the hackers is the users of cryptos. What makes our wallet safe and not, depends on our own.
