@UnHappyday:

Did the devs for the coin provide a SHA256 (or whatever) checksum for the updated wallet installer?
It does look like you got Trojaned in some way, where did you download the installer ?

What does this coins devs/community have to say about the issue?


hello guys,
i have a case where my coins are gone and lost i think , but i like to know from others
my problem began when i sent a couple of hundred  coins from an exchange to 2 wallets
all the coins were received at the wallets but before i was able to back up or encrypt my wallets i had a power failure for couple of hours
when the power was up again i noticed to my horror that the hard disc crashed, and to make things worst file recovery shows no wallets at all besides other files not able to recover.
the coin explorer shows the coins were send from  the exchange to the wallets.
so for me it's no wallets no coins anymore, and is there a fix for this, or was i hacked without knowing.
regards
 
Looks like you fried your HD,a specialised recovery service may be able to get the wallets back for you. Maybe......
Check the block explorer again, if your coins move from the wallets: you've been hacked.
If your coins are still on the wallets, try for recovery, if it's worth the costs.
