Wallet file corruption detected. SEED Phrase Contain Different Addresses #8880

Open RumahCryptoIndonesia opened 8 months ago

RumahCryptoIndonesia commented 8 months ago

My electrum wallet SEED is containing different addresses. That's causes I can't execute to Send out My Bitcoin.

I tried Open New Wallet using the SEED given and it showed different addresses (as seen in image attached). On the left is my ORIGINAL Wallet cointain BTC. Both showed same SEED, Private Key and Master Key. Problem

Problem is i never write down the SEED before so I couldn't tell if it does change or not.

Can anyone Help?

Do you get a "Wallet file corruption detected" error message when you open the wallet file?

RumahCryptoIndonesia commented 8 months ago

Yes. Like this.

No, it is a scam. There is no private support. Use public forums such as bitcointalk or reddit. Be extremely sceptical of anyone offering private help.

Yes

Well, the message is relatively clear I think. The wallet file got corrupted or maliciously modified, and it now contains fake/invalid addresses.

I tried Open New Wallet using the SEED given and it showed different addresses

The addresses that are restored from the seed are the correct addresses, but indeed just like the addresses in your wallet file got modified, the seed stored there might also have been modified.

Problem is i never write down the SEED before so I couldn't tell if it does change or not.

Well, the software explicitly said that you need to write your seed down on paper. Paper cannot be hacked.

There is nothing we can do, sorry.
