Sent crypto to a spoofed 'Binance Wallet' app, wallet drained - can I get it back?
Guys, I'm absolutely devastated. I downloaded what I *thought* was the official Binance Wallet app from an ad I saw on social media – Facebook, I think. It looked super legit, the interface, everything. I logged in with my actual Binance credentials and then tried to transfer some ETH from my main Binance account to this 'wallet' app. I wanted to stake it, you know? The transfer went through fine initially, confirmed on Binance, but then when I checked the 'wallet' app, nothing. And then a few hours later, my entire main Binance account got drained, not just the ETH I sent but everything else too. I changed my passwords, enabled 2FA everywhere, but the crypto's gone. Is there any way to trace this or get it back? Feeling really stupid right now. Any advice would be amazing.
