I have about 169,000 tether USDT in my Trustwallet but every time I transfer eth to the wallet it doesn’t show though it shows approved. It enters another wallet which I am not the owner of. Pls can smone help me with suggestion on how to remedy this situation?
Hello @Amore To better assist, please send the following information:
-
Trust Wallet app version (open the app, go to the settings of the app and press “About”, take a screenshot, and attach it here)
-
Crypto wallet address (press the receive icon near the send button, take a screenshot of the QR code, and attach it here. Also copy and paste it in plain text)
-
Transaction hash or link (if you have any, please copy and paste)
-
Further details about your issue (please explain what you were trying to do)
-
Screenshots of the wallet (including errors or missing balance)

From the above screenshots you can see that I have over 169000 tether USDT but I can’t withdraw it reason being that each time I transfer eth to my account which would be used for the contract call it enters another account which am not the owner.
@Amore Sorry to hear about your recent experience. Here are the possible reasons:
-
You shared your 12 words (via phishing, social engineering, etc.);
-
You saved your 12 words in a very bad place;
-
Your device is corrupted with malware;
-
Someone had physical access to your device;
-
You entered your recovery phrase on a fake/clone app;
-
You transacted with a malicious DApp.
Unfortunately, confirmed transactions on the blockchain are irreversible. It is your responsibility to make sure your wallet is not compromised since the app is a non-custodial wallet (meaning, you SHOULD be the only one who holds the secret phrase and private keys).

Just to make sure it’s still there. Thanks
@Amore Please note that your USDT is blocked and therefore you will be unable to transfer or swap it.
Can this be unblocked or reversed in any way or has it been permanently blocked?
Hi @Amore,
This wallet is not yours. You likely got this somewhere else where its private key or seed phrase is leaked.
Why? This wallet has been a topic in the past already.

With that said, please refrain from trying to use this wallet since bots actively monitor this.
