Yesterday $70,000+ in ETH & SOL was drained from my Crypto Wallets.
TLDR: I was socially engineered into moving some funds from my Ledger to my Exodus wallet, which the hacker(s) already had access to. As soon as the $57,000 was moved it was drained, as well as ~$13,000 in my Phantom wallet.
More details including addresses and transaction hashes will be in the comments below as well.
I want to make this post to reinforce to people that the online space, especially the gambling space, is NOT a place where you can trust ANYONE.
Somehow, somebody (who I presume I trusted enough to have contact with and likely clicked a link) has had access to my browser cookies, along with that my browser extensions, which includes my Phantom and Exodus wallets.
On September 14th I was approached by Mo (mo.qtr) (1536851479149805769) on discord, he was asking me about my affiliated sites and claiming to be a highroller on
@rainbetcom and
@CS2_Gem, which in CSOGems case he actually is the highest level on CSOGem, is VIP and has shown his own official case on site (Mopianop).
After further discussion, we were talking about getting him VIP status on another site I am affiliated with and the conversation geared towards him wanting to swap his USDT for my ETH, which made little sense to me but he was claiming that he would send first and did not trust most swapping sites.
Once I moved funds out of my ledger to my exodus the $57,000 was instantly drained, as well as the ~$13,000 in my phantom wallet and Mo left the call.
Anyone can feel free to call me a retard for moving funds out of my ledger to exodus, but millions of people hold their money in these hot wallets, and I constantly have thousands in my phantom wallet at a time, as I need to make quick transactions every single day for my streams and to payout affiliates.
I still am unsure how they had access to my browser cookies, I feel this was something that was targeted to me as I am a streamer so I want to share this to anyone else who could be compromised and also see if anyone else would have ideas about how this happened to me.
This is an terrible blow to my funds for my streams and my life in general, I came up and started my streaming career with just about nothing. This just means that I will have to push myself even harder and continue my grind.
I will continue my streams today and upkeep my 450+ Day Stream Streak on my Kick channel, to those who will be there supporting me I will try my best to be my usual self, but as you can imagine this took a big toll on my mental.
Feel free to comment any questions or advice, every interaction on this post will help to spread the word to others and helps more than you think.
If anyone has information about this scammer, how I could have been compromised, or any ways to recover these funds I would appreciate it more than you could imagine.
