120,000 Ripple XRP stolen from hard earned poor man

[nkarthi]

Guys please help me.  My 120,000 XRP stolen from GateHub.net.  It is very sad.  I lost all my hard earned my money.   Please help me how do I get my hard earned money.

Whoever stealing CRYPTO should think that people are buying crypto currency with poor background.

Help is needed.   I contacted GateHub.net and Ripple.com.  They are not helpful.

Hi Mate sad to hear this but how did it got stolen? Did u had 2 factor AUTH on?

Well, I was kind a waiting for a first post about xrp be stolen. Any idea how this happened?

Unfortunately, if you were hacked, it's very unlikely you will get your money back

 

Sad to hear this

I might be a little off here, but I am starting to think A ""Nigerian prince or even Oil Executive" checking out the Forum,

I didn't have the 2FA.  I migrated my 120,000 Ripples from RippleTrade.com to GateHub.com few years back.  At that time they didn't have 2FA.  So, I didn't have 2FA.  It so sad that Ripple is not helping.  I thought Ripple is reliable company and the Ripple uses CENTERALIZED ledger.  Looks like I am helpless.   I request people stealing others money should think that they have family and kids and they work hard to earn money.

Enter your address (starts with lowercase 'r') here: https://bithomp.com/explorer/.

See if your XRP was sent to Poloniex (under transactions). If yes, reach out to them directly. You should also report it to the local authorities. I'm sorry for your loss!

I transferred my Ripples to GateHub.net looking at the contact address their web site that they are in LONDON.  But now I came to know that all the employees in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Gatehub.net is too risky.

Is there any case of stolen XRP reported with 2FA on?

Do you see the address your XRPs were sent to?

explorer shows the XRP sent to Poloniex.  But Poloniex says they don't have it.  But Bittrex says it came to them.  I don't know how.  But they are not sharing the account holder information.  I need to get supoena to get more details.   I am very sad that RIPPLE is not helping anything.

This claims are going to become more common. @karlos @tomxcs @Mercury I think we may need to develop rules around what information is required in order for someone to claim theft.

Sorry to hear your loss.

Ripple has zero responsibility for stolen XRP. Asking them to help would be the same as asking the US government for help when USD is stolen from your pocket. Gatehub should be the one offering some assistance since the funds were taken from there. Perhaps IP logs of the logging in details when the thief accessed your account. Using this report from Gatehub, then approach the authorities to make a report. How Bittrex came into the picture however, this portion doesn't make sense in the story.
