How to save your hacked MyetherWallet and the Tokens within

in cryptocurrency •  6 years ago  (edited)


I'm writing this article or tips whatever you name it because I know the sad feeling when a crypto enthusiast's wallet hacked by despicable hacker.

You can find myetherwallet security video but they are not helped and there is No Solution - As soon as possible transfer all the rest of your tokens to other wallet address. You may be victim of HYDRO Airdrop like me. Beware Airdrop - Try know of the project first then apply. What that hacker doing is - if your wallet got even 0 eth then He send eth to your wallet first and then transfer one by one your valued tokens. Temporary Solution: Make your wallet always Zero Balance. If your balance is Zero then hacker will send any amount eth first - So you have to be alert about his sending eth to yr wallet. When you get alert notification of incoming eth - then you have to instantly send the hacker eth to other wallet and make it Zero - So you can hack hacker eth. I managed to seized 3 times hacker's eth in the middle of transaction while sending out my tokens. So how you manage the alert to know when hacker send eth to your Zero balance wallet?

Step 1 : Install Metmask wallet in your desktop and Android Mobile
Always log in to myetherwallet by using metamask.

Step 2: Sign up in etherscan.io for incoming and out going notification

Step 3: Include your hacked wallet address in etherscan notification setting

Until you sent rest of your tokens to other wallet - you have be a watchman using etherscan and metamask.
Always logged in your myetherwallet using metamask into your android phone for 24x7 by gmail notification on and desktop whenever you use.

  1. Install notifier for gmail extension for your desktop browser and alarming sound should be on - mobile phone not required.

This is only temporarily solution that I yet know - Private key stolen or hacked mean your wallet is hand over including all your valued tokens that you dream for.
I intend to made a video on this - But me too depressed because my 2 wallet have been hacked.

Note: Crypto enthusiast should not receive tokens in one wallet - create one wallet per 10 airdrop tokens and keep your wallet always zero balanced. If it helps you I'll be very glad.
