DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS

"My coins were stolen by 0x37fe990465FD4B591F5ed70AF030811CFa25E9F8. I owned MIR, AUDIO, BOND, BONDLY. At the time of the attack I was trying to connect my MM to pancakeswap and connectwallet both of which gave me errors which was strange since I've used pancakeswap before with no issues. by CannierMist775 in Metamask"

"When I downloaded the walletconnect app I did input my seed phrase (thinking it was necessary to trade within the app) is this normal or how else do you use walletconnect?" "I downloaded their app from playstore."

"From the scam website either it took me to the playstore or I went myself to look if there was an app can't remember exactly."

"Walletconnect does not have an app whatsoever. So the hacker made the app and posted on the playstore and through there it asked for the seed, which is how he gains access. I deleted it off my phone but I can't find it anymore on the store."

"pancakeswap put that app in the options to connect to. Which is the reason for my loss. They should first know and look into anything that wants to use their website so people like me don't assume it's safe to use"

"I absolutely acknowledge I was scammed due to my negligence I just don't want others to fall victims so spreading awareness won't hurt anyone except the scammer."

"About 7k worth by today's price" "I learned my lesson at the very least. Was about 7k at today's prices but I'm sure they will be worth way more within a year. It's not chump change. I later made 2 wallets 1 for purchasing and to tie to other platforms but never holds for long term, and another wallet where I actually leave my crpyptos untill I put them on a cold storage wallet." "Bright side is that it only cost you 7k to learn this lesson."

"I know you don't want to get a lecture. All I have to say is to make sure to get a hardware wallet like trezor or Ledger to secure your funds. With that amount, I would def secure it. I know staking that uses autocompounding can't use a ledger, but have another account and only risk the staked tokens and not the whole bag. Good luck. The only recourse you have is to watch the txs of this account and link it back to an exchange. Notify the exchange as many ways as possible. There has been some luck in this but its gonna have to be persistent."

"Yea me too, glad I didn't put in more money into that account cuz I was about to...well lesson learned and yes I agree people don't wanna believe it's their fault"

"I'm going to buy a ledger nano x when I'm able...but since my positions were wiped I have to start over again."

"Just found that the scammer send his ETH to a kraken Wallet after some time"

Reddit user CannierMist775 reports that their funds were taken from their wallet after entering their seed phrase into a fake "WalletConnect" application they downloaded from the Google Play store. They lost $7k. While the attacker withdrew the funds to Kraken, there is no indication that any funds have been recovered.
