I think I got scammed! Someone wants me to send crypto to an unknown wallet address. What should I do?

Recommended Posts

Don't believe in such things. Scammers always have ways to keep you trapped. don't send your bitcoin to him. If your account believes that it is safe, don't easily believe such threats. he just wants your bitcoin.

it always happen to me. if you ever invest in ICO or join their bounties and airdrop that required your email address, you must be received some phising and fraud email. don't ever believe his messager or if the message contain some links, don't ever click his link. because those maybe will redirect you to phising site and contain some malware.

I think what you can do is to report it to the proper authority that can help to your problem and try to outsmart the scammer that wants to scam you and no matter what do not give you account and password.

You need to be aware before doing anything. I think you were wrong with your personal information when you were working on a site. Also, someone on your PC may have hacked and got your information.

I think you can disconnect your internet connection using that device and start to use another device, so you don't have to think about that hacker. While you disconnect the internet, you can begin to search for any suspicious links or data on your computer, or you can scan your computer with the recommended antivirus. Another thing you can do now not panic because of the hacker so you can think about how to get the solution besides what I suggest. Who knows that the hacker does not have your personal information, and he only wants to bluff you so you can send the money to him.

The next thing you supposed to do, is to cut off communication with that person. You should not send crypto to any unknown person

Thanks for all your comments!

I didn't send him/her any BTC and ignored the E-mail but there is something that still worries me. This scammer may have hacked my PC to gain access to my BTC wallet to steal my coins. If we suppose he has hacked my PC, do you think he can find my password and login data for any website I have visited? I didn't save my Yobit and Blockchain password on my browsers. I'm sure about myself but not sure about the hacker. If he finds my password, can he bypass Yobit 2FA by accessing my E-mail? Someone told me that a hacker can activate any kind of malware in your PC without being noticed by you. Some malware can even format your PC and delete all your files. Is this true?

New update!

I ignored his E-mail and scanned my computer. I also switched to normal user to limit accessibility for anyone who may hack and gain access to my PC. I limited admin rights so that no one can install, uninstall or delete vital files from my computer. And what do you think happened next?

To my surprise, when I checked my spam folder some days ago I saw that scammer has sent me another E-mail with the same content and threats but this time he has increased the ransom to $1000 worth of bitcoin! He had written a new BTC address in his new E-mail. He still claims that he has all my personal information and passwords. I ignored his E-mail again but why this scammer don't leave me alone? Is there anything I can do to blacklist his E-mails? Maybe this is just a ransomware and not a real human! What do you think?

I don't think it's necessary, unless your computer has a virus that can't be erased and they lock your important files.

There is another method scammers use to steal BTC from people through spam E-mails.

Once I received an E-mail with the following title:

" Congratulation! You won 10 BTC! "

Inside the E-mail, it was written: You are the lucky winner of 10 BTC because your name was chosen by random among others. We are glad to offer you this great opportunity! A bitcoin wallet address had been mentioned in the E-mail and the writer had asked me to send just 0.001 BTC to the mentioned address to receive my reward!

This is clearly a scam E-mail because no one will give you 10 BTC just for 0.001 BTC!! They ask you for low amounts on purpose to attract your attention but if they collect 0.001 BTC from just 100 people, they will earn $1000 per day easily! So, beware about this kind of fraud.

Do you know the zero day flaw? If you encounter a new virus then anti-virus software cannot detect it. You should install a firewall on your computer to prevent unauthorized files.

What do you mean by zero day flow? I have never heard about it. Please explain more. I have a powerful antivirus installed on my PC. My firewall is active too. There are two scenarios for hackers. Either they should break firewall barrier first and attack antivirus next or vice versa. I don't know which one resists against hackers first but I think antivirus kills malwares and firewall is like a shield that tries to prevent hackers from entering PCs. So, they are complements of each other. So, it seems impossible that a hacker could break both barriers, gains access to my PC and steal my passwords and information. This is something maybe 1 out of every 100 hackers can do! It is also probable that my antivirus has not been up to date at the time of attack.

If you send your wallet address to a wrong account you will be scammed and your earnings will also be scammed. I think that you should not send your wallet address to that account

What you are talking about? You will get tracked only. That is the only thing will happen if you sent a wallet address to someone.

Some days ago, I received an E-mail in which someone had threatened me to publish my personal media files in social media groups. The title of the E-mail was my desktop password. This scammer told me that he now knows my password and has access to my computer and all my personal pictures and videos. Fortunately, I don't store my personal info on my PC and use an external hard drive for this kind of information. The E-mail contains a bitcoin wallet address and the scammer has asked me to send $500 worth of bitcoin to his wallet to forget about revealing my personal info on the web. I changed my password immediately after reading this E-mail and switched to normal user from admin to block everyone's access to the vital program files in my PC. I have never received such an E-mail before and I don't know how this scammer has managed to find my password. Maybe I visited a website that contained malware. My antivirus and anti-malware are always on. Anyway, what do you recommend me to do at this moment?

Well bro that virus is called ransomware wherein the hacker will lock or have an access to your pc and will lock all your files in your pc and to retrieve it or unlock all your files you need to give money, from the name also "ransom" ware which they want you to pay for them to let go of your data and if you manage to get out of that situation then maybe the hacker or virus isn't strong enough but little of advice, the virus is still in your pc the best solution is to format the pc, or you could search best solutions from internet.

I also often get emails filtered in a spam folder whose contents are a script, the contents of the message say that I get a paypal balance prize and have to confirm the link via email, and not infrequently also I get a link to claim a number of cryptocurrency, but I don't  ignoring too many unknown messages, especially if the message is in the spam folder ...

I recommend that you immediately go into the antivirus program and check the computer for the presence of a virus, after that you should contact a specialist, because the virus may not be visible to the antivirus. In general, I do not advise you to save your passwords on sites from your personal accounts.

It might be a way of intimidating you to send that amount.

Because if he truly had your password, ( just maybe)

He would logged you out of it. Or even change your password, in a way to tell you that he has control of your PC.

    • Аналитик Coinbase считает, что одобрение ETF на базе Ethereum в США только вопрос времени. Однако возможность одобрения ETF с функцией стейкинга вызывает сомнения. SEC изучает обоснования для отказа по заявкам на спотовые Ethereum-ETF. Некоторые заявки были отложены на более поздние сроки. Grayscale Investments отозвала заявление на создание фьючерсного ETF на базе Ethereum.
    • Уточняем, что данная статья несёт ознакомительный характер и мнение мониторинга Exchangesumo необязательно должно совпадать с вашим.   Рестейкинг — это интересное явление в мире криптовалют, представляющее собой новую стратегию инвестирования, где участники вкладывают свои цифровые активы в блокчейн сети с принципом Proof-of-Stake для получения вознаграждения. Этот подход не только способствует обеспечению безопасности сети, но и позволяет пользователям зарабатывать пассивный доход.   В сетях с принципом Proof-of-Stake роль валидаторов важна, так как их задача заключается в подтверждении транзакций и обеспечении работоспособности блокчейна. За это они получают вознаграждение в форме новых монет. Чем больше цифровых активов они блокируют в стейкинге, тем больше шансов на получение высоких вознаграждений.   О проекте EigenLayer   EigenLayer - технология, применяемая для защиты новых блокчейн-приложений и протоколов рестейкинга, которая представляет новую эффективную стратегию не только для защиты блокчейнов, но и для получения дополнительных доходов, открывая новые возможности для развития криптовалютного рынка.   Проект EigenLayer является одним из ведущих стартапов в области рестейкинга в экосистеме Ethereum, предлагающий инновационные решения по повышению безопасности и эффективности использования криптовалюты ETH. Использование монет ETH через рестейкинг на платформе EigenLayer позволяет повторно использовать уже вложенные средства для активной валидации блокчейнов.   Сервисы активной валидации (AVS), представленные EigenLayer, играют важную роль в поддержке решений для масштабирования Ethereum, благодаря которым участники могут эффективно использовать свои цифровые активы и получать дополнительные проценты от участия в рестейкинге.   Ликвидный рестейкинг   Рестейкинг через EigenLayer и другие подобные платформы обычно предполагает вложение криптовалюты, настройку децентрализованных операторов и выбор сервиса активной валидации.   Использование сервисов ликвидного рестейкинга, таких как Puffer, Ether.Fi и Renzo, представляет собой более простой и удобный способ получения дополнительного дохода. Эти сервисы действуют как посредники, позволяя пользователям вложить свои активы в EigenLayer и подобные платформы, получить токены ликвидного рестейкинга (LRT) взамен, на которые начисляются проценты.   Токены LRT предоставляют пользователям возможность получать доход от участия в рестейкинге и торговать ими на децентрализованных финансовых сервисах для дополнительной доходности. Сервисы ликвидного рестейкинга облегчают процесс участия в рестейкинге, предоставляя пользователям удобные инструменты для управления своими активами и получения дополнительного дохода.   Риски в рестейкинге   Риски, связанные с рестейкингом и использованием токенов ликвидного рестейкинга, являются важными аспектами. Возможность "заражения" (contagion) и кризис перезакладывания (rehypothecation) могут стать серьезными угрозами для экосистемы стейкинга и самих пользователей.   Программа страхования attributable security, планируемая разработчиками EigenLayer, направлена на решение проблем, связанных с возможным "заражением" и повышением безопасности системы рестейкинга. Однако детали этой программы еще требуют уточнения, что подчеркивает важность разработки прозрачных и надежных механизмов обеспечения безопасности в данной области.   Увеличение количества токенов ликвидного рестейкинга, возможно, создает дополнительные риски, связанные с потенциальной спекуляцией и уязвимостями протоколов. Необходимость предотвращения злоупотреблений и обеспечения честной и надежной работы таких систем остается важным вопросом для участников криптовалютного сообщества.   Система "очков" (points), которая используется в EigenLayer и протоколах ликвидного рестейкинга как стимул для участия, может стать инструментом для управления участниками и проведения будущих эирдропов токенов. Однако важно соблюдать принципы прозрачности и честности при использовании подобных механизмов, чтобы избежать возможной спекуляции и нестабильности на рынке криптовалют.   Таким образом, рестейкинг – это некий тренд инновационных подходов, отражающих динамичное развитие криптовалютного рынка и его возможностей для инвесторов.

    • Forex and Cryptocurrency Forecast for 20 – 24 May 2024 EUR/USD: Weak Inflation = Weak USD     The American currency suffered two significant blows last week. Although these were not knockdowns, let alone knockouts, these minor shocks pushed the DXY Dollar Index down from 105.26 to 104.20 points, and EUR/USD up from 1.0766 to 1.0895.   The first blow came on Tuesday, 14 May, from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Surprisingly, after his comments, the dollar should have strengthened, but instead, it faltered. Powell stated that the regulator's monetary policy is currently tight enough to eventually reduce inflation. However, he also mentioned that the Fed is not confident that inflation is rapidly decreasing and that it may take more time to reach the target level of 2.0%. One could conclude from this that the regulator is not planning to either raise or lower the interest rate.   The dollar's weakening at this moment is even more peculiar because Powell's comments were made against the backdrop of strong data on the US Producer Price Index (PPI), indicating industrial inflation growth. In April, this indicator increased by +0.5% on a monthly basis after falling by -0.1% in March (forecast +0.3%). The core index, excluding food and energy, showed growth from 2.1% to 2.4% (y/y).   We can only explain the dollar's decline in this situation with one reason. Market participants were possibly expecting that the Fed Chairman would at least hint that if inflation rises, they need to consider another rate hike. But since he did not say this, disappointment ensued.   What happened the next day seemed 100% logical. The report from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on Wednesday, 15 May, showed that the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) fell from 0.4% to 0.3% (m/m) against a forecast of 0.4%. On an annual basis, inflation also dropped from 3.5% to 3.4%. Retail sales showed an even stronger decline, from 0.6% to 0.0% on a monthly basis (forecast 0.4%). These data indicated that although inflation in the country is resisting in some areas, it is generally declining.   As a result, talks about a possible Fed rate cut this year resurfaced. "These are the first weaker CPI data that the central bank [US] needs to lower rates this year," said Jason Pride, Glenmede's Director of Investment Strategy and Analysis. The likelihood that the rate will remain unchanged until the end of 2024 fell from 35% to 25%, according to the CME's FedWatch Tool. As a result, the DXY continued to fall, and the EUR/USD pair rose. Stock markets rallied, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq reaching record levels. There were 43 new 52-week highs and no new lows in the S&P 500, while the Nasdaq had 153 highs and 25 lows.   The dollar's weakening was halted by comments from Fed representatives at the end of the week. Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) President Neel Kashkari stated that he is not confident that the current "tight monetary policy is having a dominant effect on inflation, so interest rates need to be maintained." New York FRB President John Williams said that one positive inflation report is not enough to neutralize the negative impact of the previous two, so it's not yet time to expect the Fed to start lowering rates soon.   As for the common European currency, Reuters writes that it is resisting a fall to parity with the dollar (1:1) due to a favourable economic backdrop and the monetary measures of the European Central Bank (ECB). The six-month low for EUR/USD was recorded on 16 April at 1.0600, against the backdrop of the Eurozone's fragile economy and in sharp contrast with the stable US economy. But gradually, business activity in Europe began to recover, and according to the April report, it grew even faster than on the other side of the Atlantic. This contributed to the positive dynamics of the euro. Reuters experts noted that the gap between economic indicators in Europe and the US is narrowing, providing some support to the euro.   EUR/USD closed the week at 1.0868. As for the analysts' forecast for the near future, as of the evening of 17 May, the majority (65%) expect the dollar to strengthen, 20% foresee further weakening, and the remaining 15% took a neutral stance. All trend indicators and oscillators on D1 are 100% coloured green, with a quarter of them signalling that the pair is overbought. The nearest support for the pair is located in the zones of 1.0815-1.0835, then 1.0710-1.0725, 1.0665-1.0680, 1.0600-1.0620, 1.0560, 1.0495-1.0515, 1.0450, 1.0375, 1.0255, 1.0130, 1.0000. Resistance zones are found at 1.0880-1.0915, 1.0965-1.0980, 1.1015, 1.1050, and 1.1100-1.1140.   The schedule of the most important events for next week is as follows. On Tuesday, 21 May, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is scheduled to speak. On Wednesday, 22 May, the publication of the minutes from the last FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) meeting of the US Fed is of particular interest. The next day, as usual, we will learn about the number of initial jobless claims in the US, as well as receive preliminary data on business activity (PPI) in Germany, the Eurozone, and the United States. At the very end of the workweek, on Friday, 24 May, we will learn the GDP data of Germany for Q1 2024.   CRYPTOCURRENCIES: Weak USD = Strong BTC   "A week of reflection and uncertainty": this is how we described the previous review. On Wednesday, 15 May, this uncertainty was resolved in favour of the crypto market. As often happens, the reason for this was the Fed's monetary policy. The released inflation data in the US influenced market expectations regarding a rate cut. As a result, the American currency weakened, the DXY index went down, and investors' risk appetites increased. Stock indices reached historical highs, with the daily gain for BTC/USD exceeding 8%. ETH/USD also rose by 4.5%. However, this is not yet the long-awaited Bull Rally, and it is quite possible that once the situation with the dollar calms down, the growth of bitcoin and leading altcoins will cease. At least, this is the scenario many crypto market specialists predict.   According to Capriole Investment founder Charles Edwards, bitcoin is in a "deathly boring" stage. He believes that the current consolidation period may last from one to six months, during which the quotes will remain in a low-volatility range. This will continue until traders lose patience.   Sentiment will be most negative just before the end of the flat period, Edwards believes. "When you get tired of the sideways movement, common symptoms will include thoughts that the halving is already priced in and the bull market is over. […] Your symptoms and shorts will peak just before the mega-rally," predicts the head of Capriole Investment.   Galaxy Digital head Mike Novogratz also spoke about the consolidation of the crypto market, whose growth dried up three months after the launch of spot BTC-ETFs. In his opinion, until new circumstances or events lead to growth, the first cryptocurrency will trade in the range of $55,000 to $75,000.   Analyst Rekt Capital expressed a similar point of view. He believes that the threat of a bitcoin price drop after the halving has already passed. Drawing an analogy with the situation six years ago, he suggested that on 01 May, BTC hit a bottom around $56,000, and now calm will likely prevail until autumn, with the asset remaining in the accumulation zone. According to Rekt Capital's forecast, the exponential growth phase will begin in the autumn, during which the coin's value will reach new heights.   Bitfinex crypto exchange experts are somewhat more optimistic. They believe that the current lull may last only until the beginning of summer, and in Q3–Q4, growth will return. But everything depends on the actions of the US Fed. Bitfinex notes that the decline of the US currency from a six-month peak after the May meeting of the regulator and a weak employment report became a turning point in the trend. Now, the reduction in inflationary pressure in the US has been added. As a result, the weakening of the US currency could stimulate a rally in digital assets.   Where will this rally lead in the medium and long term? There are many answers to this question. Some predict the complete collapse and oblivion of bitcoin, while others insist on a price of $1 million per coin. Recently, Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter (now X) and head of Block, joined the "millionaires' club" after CMCC Crest co-founder Willy Woo. He also expects bitcoin to surpass the $1 million mark by 2030, after which it will continue to grow, challenging traditional fiat currencies. The entrepreneur noted that a very interesting aspect of digital gold is the nature of its ecosystem and how it stimulates collective efforts to improve the network. "Aside from the founding story, the most amazing thing about bitcoin is that everyone [...] who makes any effort to improve it makes the whole ecosystem better, which drives the price up. This is an incredible movement. [...] It has taught me a lot," he explained.   Businessman, writer, and founder of Edelman Financial Services Ric Edelman believes that traditional international investors will do everything possible to diversify their portfolios. And if they all invest at least 1% of their funds in the first cryptocurrency, the bitcoin market volume will reach an unprecedented $7.4 trillion, and the asset price will soar to $420,000. The growth of the market capitalization will be facilitated by spot BTC-ETFs. According to Edelman, they cover a much broader investor base than traditional assets. "In addition, crypto ETFs are incredibly cheap. They are 20-25% cheaper than assets on Coinbase or other crypto exchanges. Plus, they are held in brokerage accounts. Bitcoin ETFs allow for traditional investment strategies such as rebalancing and dollar-cost averaging. There are also tax advantages," Edelman lists the advantages of such funds. "I am confident that bitcoin and ethereum ETFs will have a significant impact on the market in the long run," he stated.   However, this last assertion can be disputed. While BTC-ETFs are a reality, the situation with ETH-ETFs is not so simple. Many expected the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) to approve applications for the launch of ethereum funds in May. But this has not happened yet. Moreover, Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas and securities lawyer Scott Johnson believe that the chances of approving spot ETH-ETFs are almost zero. In their opinion, the SEC is now considering the possibility of rejecting these funds' launch based on the fact that the applications were submitted with violations, as the fund shares are securities, not exchange-traded commodities. The question of choosing between bitcoin and ethereum confronts many investors. The roles of these two cryptocurrencies differ, and this can significantly affect their profitability. Bitcoin is increasingly seen as digital gold, providing stability during times of economic uncertainty. This concept is supported by the observed post-halving volatility decrease, which was even lower than that of many companies in the S&P 500 index (Fidelity data).   Ethereum continues to push the boundaries of what is possible through technological innovations, including the recent Dencun update aimed at reducing fees and increasing scalability. However, these changes have once again made the network inflationary, nullifying the deflationary trend established after The Merge in 2022. As a result, ETH's volatility remains higher than BTC's.   According to ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence from OpenAI, the choice between these assets largely depends on individual investment strategy and risk tolerance. Bitcoin is generally better suited for investors seeking a relatively safe store of value and those new to cryptocurrencies. In contrast, Ethereum is better for those who believe in the future of blockchain technology. The main altcoin potentially offers higher rewards but also higher risks.   Investor and Eight founder Michaël van de Poppe has already made his choice. He admitted to selling all his bitcoins to buy altcoins. Van de Poppe believes that many of them are undervalued. And as soon as ETH prices start to rise, other alternative tokens will also go up. The expert believes that the altcoins he has chosen are likely to start growing earlier and faster than the market leader, allowing for greater profit than from investments in digital gold.   At the time of writing this review, the evening of Friday, 17 May, BTC/USD is trading at $66,835, and ETH/USD at $3,095.

    • Добрый день уважаемые форумчане!   Дуров заявил об успехе Notcoin. Что это значит для криптовалют в Telegram   "В четверг, 16 мая, крупнейшие криптобиржи, включая Binance, OKX и Bybit, провели листинг токена NOT игры Notcoin. Игра существует в виде приложения внутри мессенджера Telegram и с момента запуска в январе собрала более 35 млн игроков, которые конвертировали игровые монеты в токены. На старте торгов цена токена доходила до $0,37, но уже несколько минут спустя зафиксировалась на $0,01. По данным на 17 мая 20:00 мск, NOT торгуется по $0,007 в паре со стейблкоином USDT на бирже Binance при капитализации более $700 млн"   Хотели бы увидеть на нашем сервисе направление с монетой NOT?
