Bitcoins stolen #613
Comments
How did you create this wallet? Did the transactions already exist, or are these all your transactions? |
These are not being sent back by the electrum client. Someone stole your private keys. Electrum just reads every transaction dealing with your addresses and writes them in your history. It doesn't necessarily mean that Electrum sent them. |
This is not your wallet: it is a watching-only wallet generated by typing a wrong seed when restoring. This is a known bug: typing gibberish in the 'seed' field with 1.9.7 creates this wallet. Someone figured out what the seed is (I don't think it's too difficult), and is able to withdraws the coins sent there. Note that this bug is fixed in 1.9.8: typing a wrong seed does not create a wallet. |
I'm not sure to understand at all that story of seed, what I'm supposed to do to fix and recover ?! |
you will not recover it, they were indeed stolen. |
please help me, am about to be scammed too |
