Let’s be real, when ETH gets stolen, it’s almost never because a hacker or malware took control of your computer, scanned thousands of files, and found your passphrase randomly. That kind of stuff might happen to whales, but not to folks with smaller amounts. It just takes too much time and effort. What really happens most of the time is basic phishing. People end up entering their passphrase or private key into a sketchy app or website. I’m not saying storing your passphrase in a text file is safe (because it’s definitely not!), but it’s usually not how your funds get jacked. When it does happen, the first thing you should do is figure out how it went down. Did you use your credentials on a public computer? Did you input your private key into some random app? Are you syncing your password manager across different browsers? Or maybe someone at home got access to your seed phrase and used it without you knowing? u/24/7 bitreclaim_support: @bitreclaims on Telegram ^ Exactly. We recently handled a case where $200k was lost due to an Arbitrum hack on an Ethereum dApp. It was a textbook example of what you’re talking about—a phishing attempt that led to the compromise. Thankfully, we were able to terminate the affected smart contract and secure the remaining funds before more damage was done. It all started with figuring out how the breach happened in the first place. Once we isolated the threat, we were able to act quickly and effectively. Smart contract audits and fund tracing are our bread and butter, and they really made the difference here. u/blockchain_enthusiast: Good to know the guys at bitreclaim.com handled it! Just detached my first 3.7 BTC into my Ledger Nano,im now waiting for the erc20 gas fee so i can detach the rest from the outsourced wallets and honestly, I feel so much better knowing it’s safe. This kind of stuff is a good reminder to stay vigilant and protect your assets!
After losing $418,000 in USDT to a scam that started with a wrong number text, I reached out to BitReclaim.com. Their forensic experts traced the funds through multiple wallets using digital triangulation and recovered 5.7 BTC. Now I’m waiting for the ERC20 gas fee to recover the rest into my Ledger Nano. If you’ve been scammed, contact and open a detailed case with BitReclaim immediately with all the evidences of transactions together with wallet addresses and transaction hashes generated
