I send money to wrong address

Recommended Posts

In 2016, I desperately needed to send 50 dollars worth of Bitcoin to a friend.
It turns out that I had the virus on my pc that changes the address that copies of btc, for the address of the virus, that is, the address that the creator of the virus owns.
That was in Coinpayments, I was in a hurry and I sent the money without teaching it twice, my mistake was that because I was in a hurry I did not see the container, just trust me and do not check before sending.
After a while, I realized, hell ... I wanted to break the PC.
In the background, my btc were lost and I was scammed by a virus foolishly for rushing, always check the shipping container before making a transaction, there are many traps out there.

Sorry for your loss mate, I think you need to be more careful next time to prevent such  mistake from happening again. I think your pc is compromised already, it's best to format your OS.

You made mistake and of course, that will turn into lesson. Even though you checked it twice since you said that the address was not sent to you but sent to other address, then you would still thought that it was your address. Can you mention where did you get that virus so that everyone would know?

In the crypto market there are so many scammers and hacker will work in it and they make their own exchanges and you are right that these peoples will make a community and they regularly start to invest in their exchange or in their coin when peoples will buy the coin and they collect good money then they close their exchange and we lost our all money.

You need to be prudent when sending cryptocurrency to another account and look at the receipt of the check and compare the sender's address with a valid one. At least I did not have such actions.

I've also experience this but I'm just glad that it's just a little amount but it's still hurts a bit because that's my hard earned token.Ypu were right we must be very careful in making transactions or withdrawals try to check everytime we do it.

This needs to be watched even more for us to carefully check the address when making a transaction because the credit alone cannot be returned if we fill in the wrong number

If you conduct transactions on the same wallet, most wallets have a function that allows you to send cryptocurrency to the same address, if it sees that you often transfer money there, I always use it to God forbid not to send bitcoin is not clear to whom.

Yes, this is a very dangerous virus. My device was infected once and I wrote a topic here about this virus and how to get rid of it, it changes the addresses of the governor to different addresses belonging to the owner of the virus. You need to download a virus protection program and delete the virus file.

This is the big problem that i experienced. i withdraw money from hitbitc to freewallet platform. coin is XMO. i withdraw my XMO that was in hitbitc wallet to freewallet. however i suddenly experienced that xmo has changed and now its called XMC. i used xmo wallet address and now more than 2 months gone but no coins arrives in my xmo wallet. Correct address is really a big issue in crypto world.

Yes I agree with you, we should always be careful, especially when we are hurry, we can't see anything suspicious, so I suggest to check before any deposit or withdrawal, and do some viruses scan from time to time

There is another case which is very rare but may happen to you. Let me explain a little more. Suppose you have to receive some BTC from someone. You don't know exactly how much BTC he/she wants to send to your wallet, you only know that some amount is being sent to your wallet. After that you will receive some BTC in your wallet. How can you make sure that the amount you have just been received, has been sent by the person who wanted to send BTC to you or by another unknown person by mistake? You don't know and can't discover from whom you have received your BTC.

Something similar to this has happened to one of my friends. He was waiting for some BTC payment. He received it and thought that this is the payment he was waiting for. But a day after that, he received another BTC payment! He still doesn't know which one of them is the right payment. He only knows that one of them has been sent by a person to the wrong address and the wrong address is my friend's address!

Oh I remember when this virus was going around and how so many people fell for it because  people trusted copy and paste and didn't check again after they paste but I think that stopped now and im sorry for your loss bro.

    • Главный инвестиционный директор Bitwise Мэтью Хоуган заявил, что институциональные инвесторы, вложат в биткойн до 1 триллиона долларов через биржевые фонды (ETF), поскольку они постепенно переходят в криптовалюту. В записке, разосланной инвестиционным экспертам, Хоуган выразил обеспокоенность по поводу волатильности цен на биткойн. Поскольку актив колеблется от 60 до 70 тысяч долларов, генеральный директор считает, что лучшая стратегия — «сохранять спокойствие и смотреть в будущее».   Несмотря на краткосрочные колебания, Хоуган выделил несколько ключевых предстоящих событий. К ним относятся халвинг и потенциальное одобрение спотовых биткойн-ETF такими крупными платформами, как Morgan Stanley или Wells Fargo . Хоуган подчеркнул, что текущие процессы комплексной проверки, проводимые инвестиционными комитетами и консультантами, являются важным шагом перед совершением инвестиций в биткойны. Он упомянул, что в ожидании этих событий цена Биткойна может испытать боковое движение в ответ на незначительные изменения настроений. Тем не менее, Хоуган с оптимизмом смотрит на будущее Биткойна, ссылаясь на устойчивый бычий рынок с ростом почти на 300% за последние 15 месяцев и веские причины для дальнейшего роста.   Январское одобрение спотовых биткойн-ETF значительно открыло рынок криптовалют для профессионалов в области инвестиций. Хоуган считает, что это знаменует собой начало интереса со стороны профессионалов, управляющих триллионами долларов, и этот процесс займет годы. Он также подчеркнул приток $12 миллиардов в ETF с момента их запуска, назвав это самым успешным дебютом ETF. Тем не менее, он ожидает, что глобальные управляющие активами, выделяющие всего 1% своих портфелей в биткойны, могут привести к притоку в 1 триллион долларов, в результате чего первоначальные 12 миллиардов долларов кажутся минимальными инвестициями. Ранее в марте Хоуган предположил, что спотовые ETF Ethereum могут привлечь больше активов, если будут запущены после мая. Учитывая более осторожный прогноз относительно майского дебюта, он предположил , что декабрьский запуск может быть более выгодным. Задержка даст Уолл-стрит и традиционному финансовому сектору больше времени для понимания сложностей криптовалюты, особенно Биткойна. По оценкам Хогана, Уолл-стрит потребуется от восьми до девяти месяцев, чтобы приспособиться к биткойнам, прежде чем рассматривать новый ETF.
    • Hello, friends, I wanted to alert you all about my recent experience with an airdrop group named @Airdrop_Fam. Initially, everything seemed legitimate. They requested an advance payment for their services, which I thought was standard procedure. However, the situation took a turn for the worse when they began demanding additional funds to publish a post. When I resisted their sudden and unexpected demand, communication came to an abrupt halt; they completely ignored my messages. The person behind this scheme is the admin of the group, known as @Airdrop_FAM_Admin. At first, this individual appears cooperative and friendly, but don't be deceived – it's all a facade to extort more money from you. Please, I urge everyone to be cautious and steer clear of @Airdrop_Fam. The group is a sham, filled with no genuine participants. The admin is a charlatan through and through. Don't let yourself be their next victim! Stay safe and always do thorough research before engaging with such groups

    • Майнер криптовалюты Hut 8 Corp опубликовал отчет о своих результатах за последние шесть месяцев. Согласно пресс-релизу компании , Hut 8 увеличила выручку до $60,6 млн за шесть месяцев, закончившихся 31 декабря 2023 года. Основные показатели финансовой отчетности Hut 8 включают увеличение выручки на 32% и значительное увеличение чистой прибыли до $6,2 млн по сравнению с к предыдущему чистому убытку. Стоимость майнинга биткойнов ( BTC ) составила 18 815 долларов США, и за этот период компания добыла 1244 биткойна. Стоимость энергии Hut 8 за МВтч составила 44,52 доллара США, что отражает эффективность управления затратами на электроэнергию. Биткойн укрепляет активы Hut 8 Сила баланса компании очевидна в ее активах в биткойнах : по состоянию на 31 декабря 2023 года 9 195 биткойнов оценивались примерно в 388,1 миллиона долларов. Эта база активов обеспечивает Hut 8 значительную рыночную стоимость и потенциал для будущих доходов. Биткойн демонстрирует устойчивый рост с начала года после того, как спотовые биткойн- ETF в США привлекли в биткойн институциональных и розничных инвесторов. С начала года первая и до сих пор лидирующая криптовалюта в мире подорожала на 60%, а в начале марта BTC обновил свой исторический максимум, поднявшись выше $70 000. Кроме того, рыночная капитализация Биткойна превысила 1,4 триллиона долларов, что сделало самую ценную криптовалюту восьмым по величине активом в мире, обогнав серебро.
