There is nothing that can be done in that kind of situation because you can't reverse a transaction on the blockchain. The only only thing you can do is to forget about it and improvise on where and how you keep the deposit box and also your hard copy. 

All should secure his account first before doing any kind of transaction as there are many scammers now in the crypto world and they are active all the time.

If i had a printed copy of the seed i would keep it on me at all times and never let it out of my sight because you never know when a deposit box could be stolen

Say you have a bitcoin wallet and you have a printed copy with the seed. You stored in a safe deposit box and someday you discovered that the printed copy is not there with some other money you had there. I mean, someday you discovered that you someone stole everything from that deposit box. 

What will you do to get back your coins (assuming other things are not as much important as the coins you have)?

Let's share the idea of how we can see ourselves not to be a situation like this.

Well for me if that happen if I have a lot of coins there then I try to open it and recover and also transfer or withdraw all my coins.

[Ali abbas 15]

If you are in such situation then u shuld contact to your local police but in case of bitcoin I always be afraid becoz it oftentimes lost

[Delgboke 2480]

But since is a printed copy of Bitcoin is the one that's stolen from the saving box, I don't think there's anything you can do to recover printed copy of Bitcoin in that situation, if to say is a soft copy that's on your Bitcoin wallet that was stolen, it will still be lost, once the person transfers the coins is gone. 

[Man 741]

if you don't have a copy on the hardcopy then that's the problem. Suppose you have lost everything if you do not have a copy in the contents of the hardcopy.

You bro this is not possible that it will happen in 1 to 10000 times. Because he do not know that he has hard copy has soft. So this is not even assurance.

And how do you are doing that? I suppose you're getting it off-base here. There aren't any such authoritative with IP for Bitcoin. Anybody with the get to of your seed or private key can exchange the coin to anywhere.

Assuming the person who took all the contents of the deposit box knows that it's a private key or a seed word that he can use to access your bitcoin. Not necessarily people who take it know that is the key to your bitcoin storage.

in this case, from as described, the only thing you can do it is that praying that thief doesn't know what bitcoin is doesn't know how to use the seed.

 

because you said "you stored", and "someday" so you don't instantly that someone stole your seed

 

another thing is too see in which wallet he sent the coins and hoping that someday those coins will arrive in an exchange wallet so the exchange can block this user and see who is he

[Olibafhasder 14]

Yes it may be hard to copy but to be safe we need to do the things we need to do to keep our money safe

I figure you can't do much around it other than reporting neighborhood specialists almost that. But since cryptocurrencies are not so known within the world however I question they will indeed know what it is and indeed on the off chance that they do they can't do much approximately it.

That is a matter for the future, if the inventor of the hardcopy searches the internet then little by little will begin to find out. But the problem is the owner, who will lose everything.

If you know the thief that's steel your hard copy it will be too easy to report him to the police station, but if you don't know who is thief that's will be no other way to do for you

Nothing to figure out here, if you have another back up you just use that and transfer your funds from there to another wallet but if you don't have any back up you can't do anything.

i think so and if anyone lost his private key or any one steal his key then nothing have to do for that as theere are many scammers who are trying to steal others asset.

I understand that the easiest way to do this is to report a robbery at your nearest police station.  You get what you stole at a lucky event, but I'm shocked when it comes to Bitcoin, they will probably be in the wrong place.

i think if btc is not allowed on that country than the police cant take any action about that matter. they can take action if the crypto is allowed on that place.

[TasinHasan 421]

i will change my wallet immediate when i see thief receive my hard copy.

i will create a new wallet and send my balance to new one.

then i will cash my balance and leave crypto for sometimes. 

[Investors Blog 385]

This is the reason why every hardcopy should be password protected, If you have paper wallet and you private key are saved on a notepad make sure to add some strong password and put it on secure vault.

Surely i would become angry and will calm down and ask the local police department to take immediate action and find out the thief if they couldn't found that i will sit down and cry

The simplest wallet one can imagine is a piece of paper with a private key printed on it. No kidding, one of the most secure ways to store BTC is getting a paper wallet with all necessary information. The best thing about this option is that is absolutely safe, since it is not connected to the Internet. Just keep it away from fire and water.

Hope it doesn't happen to all of us. Perhaps all you can do is report it to the police and check the cctv of the house if you have one. People can fake their identities and their fake about them so if you find a way to catch them then you're great.

I hope so that's why we really need to secure our wallet exchange any thing with our Money because if we fall in some problems like that it's done you can't really recover your money

[Usman Abdulmumin 354]

I will create new wallet and send all my money, and leave the old account for him, but if he already sole the coins I have nothing to do I can just get new and hide my hard copy. 

[wijont 101]

That aspect is very hard to appear due to the fact you have already got stored your coins in a safe wallet, I suppose you need to try this earlier than doing any exchanges or pay for invest,but if it already took place then you need to change you wallet to any other doing this rapid as you may.

[MohammadMohsin 569]

Well there wouldn't be nothing that I could do. Cause if someone steal my hard copies of my wallet they will be able to hang the whole security of my wallets and access the whole wallet. 

[Sourav43 106]

If someone copies my post.  Then it's very bad.  Not bad for me, but for anyone who copies it.  If he does copy, then he must realize that he is completely ignorant of crypto.  I think I'd better explain to him about crypto.  Explain about crypto rules.  I think he must understand.

[Mr.Bit 212]

If that happen I will report it immediately to the moderator and admins of this forum to get the punishment he or she deserves good luck guys.
