This is REAL!

I lost all my ADA worth 4k which is stored on Daedalus Mainnet today.

Recently they have released an update(3.3.0) and that update has a feature where you can register to vote on Fund3, I did register on that to show my support which also has a reward of $70.

5-6 hours after, all of my ADA has been stolen!!!

I’m not sure how they have managed to stole all of my ADA but it has a transaction ID listed on my history which I DID NOT do!

This is very alarming on Cardano community which I truly trusted.
I would like to warn all Daedelus user to transfer all their ADA to somewhere safe ASAP!!!

Hello,

Did u downloaded the daedalus app from google market store?
From where did u downloaded the daedalus?

Cheers,

3

I downloaded the app here:

4

It is the official site for daedalus;
But u ever downloaded any daedalus app for mobile from play store? Because it was a scam app;

5

I downloaded a mobile app called Catalyst Voting which is offered from the Daedalus software itself.

6

From where did u downloaded? I am trying to make a connection… how it was possible to loss ur funds…

7

I searched the mobile app on Play Store named Catalyst Voting which is indicated on the Daedalus software

8

Did it ask for your seed words?

9

I’m not really sure about the seed words since I’m new to Daedalus app, but I just followed the instructions on the app CAREFULLY

10

Did u inserted ur daedalus 24 security words in any kind of app these days?

11

I only entered it once, this is where I’ve created my Daedalus wallet

13

Did u stored the seed words on an online device?
Till now I don’t see the connection with daedalus catalyst

Perhaps u was hacked, this is the only option

14

omg every time this happens to people and i read it i realy get goose bumps&feel my hart beat pumping up.trying to figer out how this has been done in this case brains are in overload special its 3.3.0 newest version​:grimacing::grimacing:

15

I take all the precaution I needed to do. This is very sad.

I will post the transaction ID’s here, maybe someone could help.

Yes, but you need to think what happened, how u been hacked… what app did u downloaded… where u used ur seed words, etc

17

I keep on trying to remember the steps that I’ve done.

I only used the official Daedalus app and the Catalyst Voting mobile app which the Daedalus app posted and I carefully followed the instruction on how to use that mobile app.

Then 5-6hrs later, I checked my Daedalus Wallet and all my ADA has been stolen.

That is all I know.

18

You can try on daedalus on settings to change ur spending password… add ur last spending password an all 3 fields… it’s says it’s wrong?
If yes then someone restore ur wallet with seed words.

19

I’ve managed to change my spending password, no problem.

I can also verify the seed words, all working fine.

20

Where exactly u entered the seed words? On which app? I have catalyst on my phone but it didn’t asked me to enter seed words…

21

I only entered it ONCE on the Daedalus desktop when I’ve created my wallet.
