I am a newbie when it comes to crypto and like an idiot I clicked on an nft and connected my wallet. They somehow drained 2600 of my staked sol on different validators, happened about 2 hours ago. Anyone I can hire to try to recover this? I feel so stupid
I lost 1.75million usd on a socially engineered phishing scam in 2021. The feeling is crushing to even the most stoic. Its money and you will be able to get it back in due time. Focus on your health and family for the next few days. If you’re a US resident then you can claim as a loss and deduct on your taxes (small positive in the sea of negative). DMs open if you need to vent.
How can you claim it as a loss on taxes if you didn’t technically sell it but just give it away to someone else as part of a phishing trap
Have you shared this story anywhere that I can read? If not I feel like it would be worth sharing so others can learn from your misfortune.

Man that’s brutal. My condolences.
Thats brutal. Have you ever done a write up on how it occurred? Would love to know how this happened so I can avoid something like that. My condolences.
Wow that’s crazy…
That’s brutal - that’s above my Eth value lost, which still spun me for months.
