All my crypto gone, CB wallet hacked & drained, I’m about to lose everything

All Cryptocurrencies

Woke up this morning to pay some bills and saw my account was drained overnight. My savings, my rent money, everything gone. I contacted Coinbase Support who locked my wallet and told me what I already knew, that these transactions are irreversible. Coinbase Support told me to call my local PD for help recovering funds. My local PD can’t find stolen cars, I doubt they’re going to find crypto even with the wallet info from the transfer. Even then, how can I get that money back? I can’t - my savings is gone. I feel like I’m suffocating.

I followed the transaction to block explorer and saw my tokens sitting in another wallet out of my reach. It’s a shit experience I hope none of you ever have.

For background: I do not share my keys, my pass phrase is kept in a secret location off my phone, and I don’t use the account for anything aside from paying bills. I also have no security alerts from Google on the connected email account and I’m using 2FA. I’m a long-term hodler but this is the ultimate FUD and I don’t think I can go back now that I’ve lost everything.

I hope someone reads this and takes something useful from my misery. I can’t stress how important that money was to me and my loved ones. You don’t want to be in this position. Secure your tokens, I’m not sure how much more secure I could have been but be more secure than I was. Please understand that CB can’t recover stolen crypto and will refer you to local PD.

I believe in crypto and think it’s a necessary step for humans, but today I’m not a believer in humans.
