Unfortunately, yes, I had some BTC stolen from me this summer. I sold some BTC at that time using a well-known, long-established site. Some of the buyers used hacked bank accounts to buy from me. By the time I realized what had happened, of course the BTC was long gone. I lost 3000.00 CAD so far. I had to work with the fraud department at my bank. I'm over the fact that I lost that money but it's probably needless to say it was painful and embarrassing at the time. I wanted a quick sale and in my greed chose to do something less secure. Unfortunately, this is still something I am reminded of every time I look at my chequing account because the bank cannot release a remaining 7000.00 CAD I received from BTC trades. They locked that money indefinitely when the fraud occurred. It seems they have arbitrarily locked the funds related to BTC sales, and I have yet to get those funds released 4 months later.

Woah, that's kinda messed up. How did you know that they were using hacked bank accounts though?
That's quite an amount lost, mate. Important thing is that you still have some left.
I almost lost everything from my wallet when a company claims that a certain airdrop of token has passed and I can claim the reward by visiting a site. To claim my token, they're gonna need my wallet file or any methods of logging my wallet in. It was an attempt phishing and I was still a newbie that time but good thing that I didn't try to cause of the mindset that it could be just another shitcoin.
