Hi everyone,
I’m posting because a yesterday I noticed an unauthorised transfer of Ethereum was made from my wallet and I’m trying to understand what I can do next.
I am the sole owner of the wallet and have never shared my recovery phrase or private keys with anyone. My Trust Wallet was protected with a password, two-factor authentication, and Face ID.
I don’t trade or use crypto actively. I bought the Ethereum during the COVID-19 pandemic as a long-term investment using part of my student loan, and since then I’ve just left it sitting in the wallet untouched. I don’t use exchanges and I don’t really know much about cryptocurrency in general. I tended to check my trust wallet every few months to check its there and it (until now) was safe and untouched for nearly 6 years..
I did not authorise or approve this transfer. A total of 1.45 ETH was moved directly from my wallet to the address below. As far as I can see, the funds are still sitting in that wallet and haven’t been moved further.
If anyone has advice on reporting this properly or possible next steps, I’d really appreciate the help. I’ve just been talking to ChatGPT about it because I genuinely have no clue. I’m surprised and shocked cause I really don’t engage with crypto except for my Trust wallet.. 🙁
