Edit: Updated information about mobile.
Update 1: Moved 65% of the funds. Taking sometime since I'm using a shitty phone right now. Thank you for so many responses. I'll update you as soon as its done. In the meantime, if you come up with more solutions, I'm happy to learn about them.
Update 2: Any idea what to do about Google Authenticator app. Binance not letting me change password or log in without the code.
Hey guys, I did a very stupid thing and I would like your help to understand the best-case scenarios. Yesterday, someone stole my phone. All my crypto wallets were logged-in.
Mobile: Nokia 8.1 (Android), Google's Find my Device isn't helpful because the device is offline/switched off.
Now comes the stupidest thing I ever did in my life which is none of the wallets had fingerprint authentication enabled or any passcodes. I have no explanation to give for this stupidity. What are the options available?
- When I go to recover my accounts using my private keys, (on another phone) how do I disable such wallets on the missing phone?
- Can I remove the information from the phone and wallets remotely?
- When I do recover my wallets to a new device, are they still active on the old device? If so, there must be a way to deactivate the app (on the stolen device). I don't want to lose my wallet addresses.
- Furthermore, Will the culprit have access to my central exchange accounts? Should I make new ones or just file a ticket to ensure they know my account could be breached? any thoughts or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Any thoughts or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
