I Lost Funds When Transferring To Coinbase Because Of Wrong Network
by
Anderson0077
on 09/10/2024, 02:50:10 UTC
I transferred $500 worth of BTC from Coinbase to an online casino. No problems.
After several weeks of gambling, with a $48 profit, I withdrew the funds into my Coinbase BTC account.
I received a Warning notice from Coinbase saying that I need to use the correct network or I could lose my funds.
However, there were no options available when I made the transfer.
It's been several days, and all the money has been withdrawn from my online casino account, but I didn't receive it in my Coinbase account.

I've never experienced this before. Is this new?

I'm new to cryptocurrency.
I received an email from Blockchain.com saying I can earn 8% annually by holding BTC.
This seems too good to be true.
Is anyone doing this?

Why not stake as long as it's at that rate and bail when it decreases?

I don't even know the worth amount of atoms coins that was stolen from you. That you went ahead and looking for recovery services. In fact, who even told you that there are recovering services? If someone advised you to go for recovering services claiming that your stolen coins will get back to you, I will simply say the person is misleading you. And if you follow its advice, you will definitely be scammed because I never heard that stolen coins have been recovered before.

I want you to get it clear that all these service sites or people claiming that they can recover stolen coins are scammers. Nothing like services that are doing recovering services, don't be deceived.


I completely understand this now. If there were services that were able to hack into the scammer's account and get the money - then they would hack into everyone's account.

This is the final email they sent me:

Bitcoin Wallet address below.
bc1q7vxle6ekvqntla323v0w09t4yaakegpsn53plk
Make payment and send proof

The crypto recovery scammer is really brave since he send his coins to Binance.

Tracing the coin is the work of chain analytic companies.
Even if I did pay a chain analytic company to trace the coin and then hire a lawyer to sue, I still might not win the case. The scammer could claim that I gave him/her the seed phrase.
And even if I did win the case, I still would have to collect the money. Just because a person wins a lawsuit doesn't mean the other person will readily hand over the money.
In the above scene, there are a lot of "IF's."
And I'm sure doing this would cost a small fortune.
I haven't heard someone win over compromised coins, but yeah your conspiracy might be true since Bitcoin is still new for Average Joe and the government is moving to tightening the laws. Bitcoin might be treated as property/commodity, you might able to claim your coins, but the drawback is you must report all of your crypto holdings.

The crypto recovery scammer is really brave since he send his coins to Binance.
So this is a Binance BTC wallet?
Can you tell if a lot of people have deposited money into his/her account?

It has 230 pages, of what appears to me, people are depositing funds into that blockchain.

Get a lawyer and report to the police or crime investigation team in your country. If you follow such a process, there is still a chance that you may not get the lost funds back.

So an attorney would have the knowledge and skill to trace that transaction and be able to get the name and address of the scammer?
Tracing the coin is the work of chain analytic companies. You can try and trace it yourself to a centralized exchange with a tool. But if the person do not send it to a centralized exchange, consider the money gone, especially if it is a low amount of money that you will spend more much than if investigating the scammer.

"The scammer's security is very right. IP is highly protected but during the recovery process we can hack their data and disclose to you who they are. Recovery with us takes 4-6 hours. All you have to pay is the registration fee on Blockchain to enable us to cooperate with Blockchain for a successful recovery. Because without the help of Blockchain recovery cannot be possible."

This is bullshit; never allow yourself to fall for this kind of cheap scam. Like Charles-Tim has said, many times, those scammers have created some posts on the forum that got deleted by the admin. 

If those guys were legit, then you would have seen their long thread on the forum, and maybe someone would even point you to it here, but they are not legit and therefore don't have a reputation on this forum. 

If you lose your crypto asset through a hack or scam incident, the only possible way to get it back is if you follow legal proceedings. Get a lawyer and report to the police or crime investigation team in your country. If you follow such a process, there is still a chance that you may not get the lost funds back.

Yes you're right I thought they were talking about an unknown Blockchain.com service. Because hackers would use this platform to hold "their" funds. But it's just some garbage talk in order to get more money IMO.

Recovery services like these are a SCAM. There Is no magic "hack" to get your coins back. Think about it - if they could hack anyone, why dont they just steal everyone's crypto instead of offering "recovery" service?
That's a really good point!

A scammer gained access to my Cosmostation wallet seed phrase after I visited untrustworthy websites that infected my computer. At least that is what I believe.
This scammer took all of my ATOMs.

Given their highly recommended status and positive reviews, I decided to reach out to Omega Crypto Recovery services in the hope of recovering my lost funds.
They informed me they are able to recover my lost funds and this is the email they sent me:

Re: Would You Recommend Investing Binance Pays 9.70% Interest on USDC
by

on 16/04/2024, 21:19:13 UTC
I would like to transfer my funds to Binance and earn 9.70% on USDC. Do you believe this would be a smart move?
No this is not a smart move at all.
You are sending your coins to centralized exchange so you don't have control over keys, coins are probably going to be locked, and CZ is currently held hostage in US so anything can happen with Binance.
I don't understand why anyone would hold stablecoins, except for temporary trading instead of using fiat currency, but it's your coins so you can do whatever you want.


Do you mind sharing more information on this?

Atomic Wallet is experiencing issues with its staking and rewards, so I would like to transfer my ATOMs to another crypto wallet.
I followed the instructions given by Atomic Wallet Support to switch to Cosmostation Wallet, which required me to enter my seed phrase.
My ATOMs transferred to Cosmostation Wallet but were immediately transferred out. I never made that transaction.
I contacted Cosmostation Wallet Support and asked them what happened.
They informed me that I must have been talking to a scammer posing as support from Atomic Wallet.
I contacted Atomic Wallet and they said I wasn't talking to a scammer and those links are legit. I lost my funds because my PC must be infected.

Right now I have $10,000 in USDC which pays 5.1% interest on Conibase.
I would like to transfer my funds to Binance and earn 9.70% on USDC. Do you believe this would be a smart move?

I've recently been scammed out of my money investing in Atomic Wallet so I'm skeptical about investing.

I finally received a response from Cosmostation Support.
After reviewing the photos I sent regarding inserting my seed phrase, they informed me that I was talking to a scammer posing as Atomic Wallet Support.

However, when I told Atomic Wallet Support this, they claim I wasn't talking to a scammer and everything was legit. They claim the reason I lost my money was because my PC was infected.

I don't know who to believe.
Either way I'm out of my money.

I am confused because people are telling me different things.
1. You don't need to insert a seed phrase into any link to transfer funds. All you need is a wallet address. If you did insert your seed phrase into any link that malware probably picked it up.
2. You must use the seed phrase to transfer the funds into another wallet. This is what Atomic Wallet Support told me. Atomic Wallet Support claims I must have had malware on my PC.

I just wrote to Cosmostation Support so I can get their take on the situation.
All I can think of is that you have been deceived that's why after using the seed phrase then you saw a transaction of transferring the funds to another wallet address or you got scammed. However, both are lose for you since it's your funds and that's what you should do is to contact them and ask cosmo about the situation. I also think that you may have got the email from a scammer pretending to be atomic wallet because if a legit wallet provider is helping someone then they don't ask you to provide the seed phrase but to tell you a way to manage your funds like importing your wallet to another wallet provider and won't give you any link to provide the seed phrase like you have been asked to do in the link.

I also think that you may have got the email from a scammer pretending to be atomic wallet
When I contacted Atomic Wallet Support about this, they confirmed that the links sent to me by the support team were safe and a standard procedure. So it wasn't a scammer pretending to be Atomic Support.
I'm still waiting for a response from Cosmostation Support.

What you wrote is what I always thought.

They clearly want to deceive you to get the funds from you by asking you to provide the seed phrase.
So you are saying Atomic Wallet Support deceived me by requesting me to insert my seed phrase into different links?
When I wrote Atomic Wallet about this, they claimed it was a safe procedure.
Another poster wrote that this is necessary to transfer the funds.
Well, it is necessary to access the wallet using the seed phrase so you can send the funds to another wallet of your choice but if they aren't deceiving you then they wouldn't told you to import the wallet on that link and would just told you that you'll need to use the seed phrase to import the wallet to another wallet provider so that you can manage your funds like sending funds to another wallet. Anyway, have you checked the wallet and is there funds on it?. If yes then you don't have to worry about it and just create new wallet and transfer the funds in there.

Anyway, have you checked the wallet and is there funds on it?
As soon as the funds were transferred to the Cosmostation wallet, a transaction was made to transfer all the funds to another wallet. I never made that transaction.

1. You don't need to insert a seed phrase into any link to transfer funds. All you need is a wallet address

I don't see how they can transfer his funds if they didn't get the seed phrase themselves.
This is where a lot of people disagree. They say:
1. Unbound the ATOMs from staking.
2. Then, transfer the funds by giving a wallet address.
If this is true, why did they have me insert my seed phrase into the links?
They clearly want to deceive you to get the funds from you by asking you to provide the seed phrase. If they didn't then they wouldn't asked you to provide the seed phrase and would only provide you an instruction on how to import your wallet to a different wallet provider by using the seed phrase to manage your atom in another wallet. To receive crypto is you need to provide an address if you are the receiver and you also need the wallet address if you are the sender which is you will use to fill in when you send a crypto.

All you did was follow the instructions of the scammers at the cost of your funds. The used Atomic wallet to deceive you, I have seen similar scams attempts using trust wallet but I never fell for them because I knew from miles away that they were scams.
Whether he was scammed in the name of Atomic Wallet support or somewhere else, we can't be sure, because based on what he has said so far, he contacted the official support and also downloaded the official version of the app, and the support team never asked for his seed phrase but asked him to import his wallet in the Cosmostation. I don't see how they can transfer his funds if they didn't get the seed phrase themselves.

So, I believe he most probably got phished or something before this issue or while he was in contact with the support team of Atomic Wallet because there can only be two things, either someone had access to his wallet through the seed phrase or the Cosmo wallet team accessed his wallet and transferred the funds.

I don't see how they can transfer his funds if they didn't get the seed phrase themselves.
