I got hacked and hackers send me funds back ❤️

A few days ago I posted here that my TrustWallet got hacked. Maybe some of you have seen that. Deleted the post by now due to privacy reasons but they stole like 10k$ in ETH, ERC20 and ETH L2s. The reason for the hack was most likely the flawed TustWallet extension, when I used it immediately after “CZ Binance” had posted about it.

They left me a message on chain saying:

“We are white hat. We found a problem with your wallet and to protect the funds we moved them out to store them securely. Please send a transaction from current and new wallet to verify yourself and get the funds back”

For me that sounded like they are just messing with me. I have send then indeed a transaction from the hacked address and new address. Nothing happened for like 2 days. I had given up on that money.

I contacted TrustWallet Support, they told me that I should send a few 0 ETH transactions to the account, where my stolen funds were sitting and include my new address as a message.

And yeah now 5 days later, they have sent me all funds back. I would never in a thousand years have believed that I will ever get that funds back.

And that is not all: I was actively DCA’ing on that compromised wallet. They saved me from a huge misery in a couple of months! I told them in some of my on chain messages to keep 20% as a fee, but they didn’t. They send me the full amount back.

So does anyone know a charity or so that accepts ETH donations? I wanna donate a small part of this money ☺️
