XRP sent to random address via XRPWallet

[Soundthealarm16]

I’m a bit confused, and also a bit concerned there will be no resolution. I was trying to transfer XRP from my XRPWallet to XUMM. I couldn’t remember my passphrase, so I was trying a few different options. I finally got it and was able to reveal my secret key. When I went back to my account in XRPWallet, it showed that my entire balance had been transferred to an unknown address. I didn’t even have the transaction section opened on the app, so I am very confused. I didn’t copy and paste, scan the QR, or type in that particular address into the destinations section. It seems this address was created five days ago and has minimal transactions. I am really not sure what happened so any suggestions would be helpful. It was about 4000 XRP, so as you can imagine,  I’m a bit shaken up. I’m not an expert in this by any means, but have been Transferring XRP from Wallet to Wallet for several years now. I have never seen this happen. Any suggestions?

What did you use to reveal your secret key and what did you do with it once you revealed it?

It sounds like you got scammed.

I actually didn’t do anything with it. I clicked on the show secret key tab to see if my passphrase worked. Once it worked I just went back to the home screen. I didn’t share the secret key. It’s pretty weird. I see that the wallet was started on the ByBit exchange. I have reached out to them to see if they can help. It seems the 3900 XRP is still in the same wallet. Fingers crossed I guess.
