Hey Bros, I don't often post here, and mostly lurk but I thought I'd share this with you.

I've been trading on Uniswap and had 6 ETH in my Metamask wallet. Yeah I know I'm a poorfag but that was all my savings and I'm currently out of work because of Covid so I'm pretty pissed off.

This morning my WiFi was down but I noticed STA had dumped a bit and thought fuck it, I'll go for a suicide stack.

Since the WiFi was down I decided I'd try Uniswap over my phone, and habitually clicked the 1st link that came up. Didn't think anything of it because that's what I always do. Well when I try and do that now I notice google has put an ad for uniswaps.org instead of uniswap.org at the top.

I'm not sure if this is what I clicked earlier, but an hour ago my Metamask was wiped clean and sent to this address,

0x768E7B4a14d59AB2b4431850Dde91Dfedcb20116

What's weird is this transaction doesn't even show up under recent transactions on my Metamask account.

I am kind of a newfag but I just wanted to warn people not to be an idiot like me, and ask if there is any potential chance I'll see my money again?

Is there another way I might've gotten hacked or do you think this dumbass mistake was what happened, because I did put my Phrase thingy into the website.

FUUUUCK just thinking about it kills me. Is there anything I can Biz?

>> No.21542676

unlucky anon. All your eth have a new daddy now

>> No.21542854

>>21542676
I've accepted that's most likely true. My biggest worry is just how I was hacked and the safety of the rest of my shit. I checked my search history and don't see a uniswaps.org and only the proper website, but uniswaps.org also won't open anymore so it's probably taken down. I'm pissed but i'd be even more pissed if this leaked over to my e-mail/banking/etc.

Fuck, that sucks anon. Sorry that happened to you, seems like you already knew what went wrong soon after it happened. Thanks for the post, it will help a lot of us gain awareness so you very well might prevent it from happening to other poor anons like you and me. Crazy, this just shows it can happen to anyone in a quick second of not paying 300% attention.

It looks retarded now lol but to put it into perspective, I had just woken up, STA was at a point I wanted to buy into and my computer wasn't working so I clicked uniswaps.org at the top of google instead of uniswap.org.
I guess the URL changed when it took me to the site but I guess I didn't look at the URL.

to add for newfags:

1. ALWAYS CHECK THE URL OF ANY CRYPTO RELATED WEBSITE, USE A BOOKMARK
2. ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK THE ADDRESS BEFORE MAKING A TRANSACTION, COPY AND PASTE THE ADDRESS
3. IF MOVING A LARGE SUM ALWAYS MAKE A SMALL TEST TRANSACTION FIRST

It looks like you just funded your metamask about 5 days ago.
Did you really just lose everything in less than a week? Holy shit.

Your seed phrase is worth more than your balls, always keep that in mind moving forward.
Luckily for you, if you don't sore out and kys yourself, AND manage to stay in crypto like a true survivor, you'll end up making up everything you loss plus more if you manage to play these pump and dumps well.
