Controlling the Yahoo account is not enough...
The hackers must have had access to his computer and used the pre-saved password to receive the email from Kraken and pass the security.
That mean he has a trojan. He has to clean up his computer asap.

They hide these trojan in pirated stuff, and when you install the crack, you open a backdoor, from there they can go on your computer, and scan silently for a wallet.dat
If they find them, they download them. If you haven't encrypted your wallet, you lost your coins.

Then they will try to get your coins from the exchanges by using your saved password in your browser.

Never use an exchange that is using emails as 2FA, use only the ones who are using Google Authenticator. The hackers cannot have simultaneously access to your phone and your computer.


somebody hacked my yahoo account and kraken credentials
an unauthorized withdrawal was acceptad
i don't know how to recover my money but that's all!!!

That sucks. Sorry for your loss. Undecided

You should stop using Yahoo immediately. Billions of Yahoo accounts have been compromised in multiple hacks. I recommend a more secure email provider like Gmail.

Like others have said, the money is gone. At this point, you need to worry about securing your computer and accounts. I would follow TheWolf666's instructions regarding cleaning or formatting your PC. I would back up anything important and then format myself. Change your passwords, switch to a more secure email provider, and start using 2FA on your exchange accounts.
