I am using trust wallet almost from an year and haven't experienced any issue. I think it's one of the best and safest online crypto wallet. Don't know why this all happened with you.

I think topic creator has several internal reasons to loss funds from trust wallet the possible reasons can be he has downloaded malicious apps from unauthorized stores on his devices where he has initially installed Trust wallet to store funds.

Due to the fact that trust wallet is not on news or on social media or anywhere online that is it hacked, that means it is not hacked. That is true.

I think his problem came from a malicious app with a spyware. It's not normal to been hacked 3 times on the same wallet, especially this kind of wallet.

personally I never suffer from this problem , intact I used trust Wallet from longtime . I think accidentally you give permission to access your completely phone to any website or app .

I always used different phone for this Kind of purpose ( receiving and sending payment to other users ) .

The possibilities that are said can make sense too. My advice is that I have experienced it more than once, don't try to use this wallet again and try using another wallet.

It is not that tough should not use the wallet again, you can use the wallet but the one the person has has been compromised, he can format his device to delete these malware and start anew. Trust wallet can still be used but another one.

If it is like that has to be done, like it or not it has to restart from the beginning of the cellphone in question. Like reinstalling the device, so it's clean and there's no more viruses.

@ethan1751 You are right, but not only clean from virus, viral malware are not even common, the common ones are trojan, worms, spyware, adware, and botnets, there are still other ones that are used to steal from wallets. Another one is ransomware.

I don't know much about malware and everything you say. But what I do know is that we have a virus like that and it originates from the cellphones or devices we use.

As of today, most malware are not virus, virus as estimated account for 10%, there are malware that are very deadly like worms that even infection files without execution. You can read the short article in the link I send you, to know little about these malware.

Sorry mate to loss your funds three times but I heard Trustwallet is most secured and safe wallet, and hackers also not easily hack this wallet then how its possible to stilling your funds, are you contact this wallets superiors maybe they have any information, and check your mobile any malware virus not attack and change password immediately,

[Brand1 1336]

I am very sorry for what happened with you. I think your only account that has been hacked and stolen several times is why I advise you to change your passwords. It is better to change the wallet and search for a safer wallet. You should search for anything strange inside the device that you put the wallet inside.

Also change the private keys for your wallet. Perhaps this will solve your problem. You have shared your wallet personal key with someone else. The perfect advice from me is to transfer your wallet to another device using seed phrases. I haven't heard of hacking the wallet of trust  yet

I do not think to transfer the wallet to another device is a good option, what if it was hacked because its private key or seed phrase was known to hackers? Creating a new wallet from the beginning is the best.

Exactly that is true if the hacker tracked the second wallet there is possibility that both wallets are at risk. The hacker can hack the both wallet and steal all the money you transfer into it.

Trust Wallet was bought by Binance, I don't think it has any problem.

Please check your input info and your key, where do you save them?

I know that trust wallet can not be hacked. Yes, but some of our mistakes can cause us to lose our trust wallet. Trust wallet is a very secure wallet which is very difficult to hack. If they enter an unknown sofa or an unknown website with their own wallet address, we can lose our wallet. So we need to be aware so that our Trust wallet is safe.

@Babubu609 For personnal reasons, I boycott Trust Wallet... however, yes you can use it, it's a good wallet. I prefer To use:

• Atomic Wallet
• Coinomi
• Enjin Wallet
• Guarda

I will not recommend atomic wallet gain, it support only legacy addresses, it will be difficult or impossible to use it seed phrase on other wallets that do not support legacy addresses. And you can not use other wallet seed phrase that support only segwit on atomic.

It was not hacked but dying a wallet can not be hacked is wrong.

To my opinion It appears that my device  have been hacked by someone or that someone close to me might be responsible for that with one of the sites.

Yes, like keyloggers, it is very possible, it can also be as a result of other negligence attitudes such as showing someone private keys or seed phrase to your wallet, nobody could be trusted.

It might be possible some one was able to get access to your wallet I could advice you against next time to activate a 2fa security in your wallet.

The person os trust about trust wallet, do you know know wallets like trust wallet do not make use of 2 factor authentication? I hope you know now, most wallets do not support 2fa.

That is true it does not give medium for application of 2fa therefore I may prefer coinomic wallet than the trust wallet although it also don't have 2fa.

Coinomi or trust, both are good, but i will also prefer coinomi because it is good and old, it was created since 2014 and no record of hackers penetrating it. I also will prefer Coinomi, it is easy to use than true too.

I have problem with trust wallet were I loose about 200US dollar by a scammer but it results that my device is hacked and give it a chance for the scammer to penetrate.

[BitcryptoHan 2557]

No wallet is hacked, the person ware careful and carelessness got his trust wallet to be hackers. Nothing of such one news which means trust wallet was not compromised. You will need to format your device and reinstall the wallet and get back your cryptocurrencies by the use of seed phrase.

Trust wallet isn't hacked. This might be your personal experience and you should check transactions history whether there was a transaction conducted or not. That will be a good starting point.

Yes, you are right, it was because of the topic starter negligence, it is either his private key is known, or how seed phrase. If not that, then its device has installed malware in which he needs to remove the malware.
