I'm curious about what actually happened and how the hacker could infiltrate your wallet!
That is what's been bothering me.
The Electrum wallet wasn't even open. It was closed and I only opened it again when I got informed by Coinomize team that the funds were traansferred. My jaw dropped and I almost fainted when I saw that a new transaction was in the history tab and the balance is zero.

From what I know, they needed my password to initiate a transaction, correct? They must have somehow logged that password when I opened the wallet to sign an address for the Yomix team to deposit the BTC funds 'cause prior to that $1,000 was just sitting on it from Coinomize for almost a week amd nothing happened to it.

The 12 word phrase was also stored offline, on my personal notebook. Ot was never written on any document on my pc or online.

Needless to say, I will wipe the shit of this OS tomorrow and install a new one with just minimal apps and zero hotwallets.
