I used only LTE from my mobile operator (TELE-2). We doesn't have any wifi networks in our place, so far away from the city (60km).

These days I was trying to understand how this happened. But all the known cases come down to is downloading the Electrum application from fake sites or entering a seed phrase in third-party applications. I didn’t do either one. the question is still open for me. It would be great if there were logs in the electrum, in which you could see from which application the transaction was made or any data about the device. but as I understand it is impossible.

talliar, you say that on April 1 your coins are still in the wallet - so something is happened in the next 2 days with your phone. Try to remember if you downloaded an app during that period, did you notice anything strange on your phone?

For how long you keep your coins in that wallet, do you have 1+BTC for a long time, or you just transfer that amount on April 1?

If this is the outgoing transaction he is talking about, he received the coins on April 1st into 2 different addresses. Both of them had had a lot of movement in the previous days, so if I had to take a guess, they came from a mixer/exchange/similar.

It may be a long shot, but I've read about user installing the "Houseparty" app had had many data leaks and some even lost BTC. Since we are in lockdown, it's likely he installed it, and it would be inside the "pretty famous" list of apps.

No, I never heard of this application and did not install it on the phone. I am from Russia, sometimes new trends go up to us sometimes)

these days my family and I were cleaning the area around the house (we have something like a farm in the village). these days I almost did not use the phone. mainly telegram and viber for communicating with parents. I can definitely say that I did not install new applications (the latter was installed two weeks ago, this is soundcloud), and I can definitely say that these days I did not go into the electrum and did not perform any operations. On April 1st, I checked in the evening that a friend had returned my debt. I know many cases where hackers replaced links. I know cases when they replaced the address and bitcoins went to the address of hackers. but so far I could not find cases when this happened without any actions of the owner.that is why I want to understand in detail how this happened. Because while I do not understand this, I do not think it is safe for me to reuse this application. I'm sorry for my English, this is not my native language, in part, I use a translator. Here is a screenshot of the latest wallet transactions. https://i.ibb.co/yWjtqnG/Screenshot-2020-04-06-15-26-40-976-org-electrum-electrum.png

I'm questioning the fact that this wallet was installed on an Android device and it appears that it can be relatively easily rooted and flashed with all sorts of different/custom ROMs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/development

Lots of Xiaomi phones are 'rootable' due to many developers supports their devices (because the price/performance ratio is good for most people who don't want to spend $800 for a phone).

That being said, I doubt just because he installed a custom ROM somebody can expose his seed just like that. We'd need a lot of details from now on, starting from the apps on his phone, what security patch his phone is using, did he also load his wallet on another place previously, etc.

My phone have official firmware. If this can help to understand the situation, then today I will write a complete list of all applications on the phone.

The transaction was send to address unknown to me: 13k4rgQ6b9LdBt6pvgLR5MSV6wAhujFpgq -snip-
Looks like it's being used to receive hacked bitcoins not exclusive to Electrum, the chance of being fake Electrum the culprit slim.
It was reported here: https://bitcoinwhoswho.com/address/13k4rgQ6b9LdBt6pvgLR5MSV6wAhujFpgq, expand the "scam alert" portion.

What are the other installed applications you have in your phone?
And please answer the question in post#2, where did you stored your 12-word seed phrase? <-- must be the issue.
All applications on the phone are downloaded from the play store. These are applications from banks, cards, food delivery services and instant messengers. After the money was stolen, I carefully scanned the entire list, all the applications are pretty famous.

"the seed phrase is written on a piece of paper and is hidden in my personal safe. no one can access her. besides this, I specially changed the word order on paper, the correct order is known only to me."

How did you create your wallet from Electrum mobile? If someone created it for you he might be the one who stole your Bitcoin. Or if the seed backup is created from other wallets like Bitpay?

If not, then there might be a keylogger in your device. Actually Xiaomi Phones is not secured as Samsung with Knox.

A similar case and address can be found below the same as hosseinimr93 posted above.
- [uncensored-r/Bitcoin] Bitpay wallet hacked - what went wrong?

That's why I suspected that this address is controlled by Bitpay? I'm not sure but if your seed backup is created from Bitpay and imported it to Electrum mobile... Maybe?

I create my seed by Electrum mobile.
Never used other wallets, this was not necessary

@OP, is your device rooted?


No. The phone was bought in the official store and in order not to violate the warranty, I did not do anything with the official firmware

Sorry, correct is "i downloaded this electrum from google play. I check it twice.

Well, as hosseinimr93 pointed out, that address appears to belong to a hacker/scammer.  It's unlikely your seed phrase was compromised, but it's very likely you did not install the official Electrum app from google.  I know you were trying to be careful, but at this point it's the most likely scenario.  You can check your google account to see which app you have installed, and compare it to the app to which official Electrum website directs.

Here's the official website link: https://electrum.org/#home
And, the link to the official app on google play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.electrum.electrum

If you have the real app installed the play store will inform you as such:

When i use your link, i see Открыть, it's translate like Open.  This means that the electrum is installed from official page :

When you created the wallet did you write down the seed phrase on a piece of paper, and store it somewhere to which only you have access?  If you are correct that you don't have a malicious version of Electrum, then I would suspect that someone may have found your seed phrase.  Is that possible?

The other thing you said is that you downloaded it from the official site, do you mean you downloaded the APK file, or did you click the link to google play?

Unverified transaction fron Electrum wallet

Electrum version 3.3.7. installed on Xiaomi mi9t pro. Nowhere else. Password protection has been enabled. On April 1, the wallet had 1.23595057 btc. Today I switched to a wallet to transfer part of the funds and was very surprised. Wallet balance 0. It turned out that on April 3rd at 23:05 a transaction was sent for the total balance. The transaction was send to address unknown to me: 13k4rgQ6b9LdBt6pvgLR5MSV6wAhujFpgq No one has access to the phone. Electrum has been downloaded from the official site. I know about phishing and always carefully check everything. Never updated the application. I download all applications for the phone only through the play market. Please tell me how this happened? What have I done wrong? for what reason have I lost all my savings?

Hello!
Today, all my asics have disconnected from the pool (just status dead). Also I can not enter the site (there is an error "Login Failed"). Tell me please what's wrong with my login? Login "talliar"

As I mentioned in Discord to someone else who had the same thing happen today.

I've cleared out a number of miners today - from all over the world
Hint ... read posts about Experimenter on the forum

But I did not mine anywhere except Kano. The last two days I had problems with disconnecting the asics because of the heat (ventilation can not cope). By what criteria did you block me?
