I just logged into MEW and when check my balance everything except 45 tokens everything else has gone! My wallet was hacked, but where have all my tokens gone?
I am devastated. Has anyone else been hacked how is this possible?
I am not sure what to do! please advice folks.
You should keep your private key as safe as possible. Do not entrust it to anyone! Not even your mother! It is not bad to doubt everyone especially when it comes to your money or investments.
Never click on suspicious sites or links sent to your email. This is the most common way of phishing. I just can't see why many still fall for this! If a link was sent to you and it is to direct you to your wallet address, don't fall for that. It's an obvious phishing attempt. Go directly to the main site. This is the safest access.
I agree. Phishing would seem a ridiculous attempt to steal money, but unfortunately it is still very effective. Often people are not attentive where they go and where they enter their key and because of the usual neglect they find themselves in such situations.
