So yesterday I make a ETH withdraw from my AltCoin Trader account to an ETH wallet address to purchase another type of coin. I had previously done this without any issue. The only difference is this time I did it from my phone.

So basically logged into the website where I wanted to purchase the new token, it gives you your unique ETH address where you make the withdraw too and once complete on AltCoin Trader side, you watch as the confirmations come thru until the process is complete.

However this time, I copied the address and pasted it into the withdraw section on AltCoin Trader but it sent it to some other address!!!

Please see below transactions route:

Sent from:
0xc58Bb74606b73c5043B75d7Aa25ebe1D5D4E7c72

To:
0xdd909057c8ef446f195da87b4df55f044d9cbd55

Then Sent out from:
0xdd909057c8ef446f195da87b4df55f044d9cbd55

To:
0x6D3fA431F185808F0C3a09A60EB671bA805B7780

Is the sent from address (ending in 7c72) AltCoin Traders exchanges address? Is it possible that the last address it was sent to (ending in 7780) is their deposit address as the 2.98ETH I withdrew is missing.

This is the transaction on etherscan: https://etherscan.io/address/0xdd909057c8ef446f195da87b4df55f044d9cbd55

As mentioned this was done on my phone so no way for me to have entered the wrong ETH address - it was a simple copy paste.

Please can anyone assist or are the coins just gone?

Would you mind mentioning where you were trying to send this ETH to?

Was buying more BunnyToken.

When you login they give you an ETH address you copy and send to - the same way I previously did it. But this time on my phone it sent to this address: 0xDD909057c8ef446F195dA87b4dF55f044d9Cbd55 (after I pasted address but no one knows where this address came from) - which is incorrect and not sure where that address came from??? I spoke to BunnyToken Support and they say they can't see any other transactions besides the one I successfully did on 21 March.

What is weried is why it would send from "7c72" to "bd55" and then from "bd55" to "7780" - they both look like exchange addresses for withdraws and deposits.

Are those tokens lost / stolen?
 
The destination 0x6D3fA431F185808F0C3a09A60EB671bA805B7780 unfortunately doesn't turn up any useful results. Has some huge outgoing transactions 150, 180, 300 ETH etc.

Possible you pasted the wrong address?
Possible you were on a phishing Altcointrader site?

Can't quite figure out how you sent to that 0xdd909057c8ef446f195da87b4df55f044d9cbd55 address.

Yeah I saw it has some big outgoing amounts now.

Not possible that I pasted the wrong address - as mentioned I did it on my phone so no other addresses saved. Was just a matter of going to BunnyToken website -> Login and select to buy with ETH -> Copy address it gives you -> Login to AltCoin Trader and select Withdraw -> Paste address and send.

Was on the normal AltCoin Trader site as I have always used on my phone.

Also not sure how it ended up sending to this address: 0xdd909057c8ef446f195da87b4df55f044d9cbd55 and why it has IN and OUT from that address too.

Honestly not sure what else to do.

Eish :(.

Somewhere something went wrong and it's not looking good. None of those addresses turn up any google results - usually exchange and scam addresses will pop up as people have discussed them. If you pasted the correct address into the legit altcointrader site I can't understand how this could happen. Not sure what else to suggest. Really sucks. Check your phone for potential malware. Check the URL of bunnycoin and altcointrader - very often phishing sites list in google.

Yeah I searched yesterday and couldn't find anything. Only thought was that it went from AltCoin Trader back to AltCoin Trader as both those addresses have a lot of IN and OUT and big amounts. Have sent AltCoin Trader an email but still waiting on a response.

Suppose I just have to give up on getting it back.
