Hello, I was staking 10 through the following account 0xf55aA615cD011c00C63567cf9Ff66827f66f17c1. If you look on etherscan, it says the eth was sent to lido 512 days ago. When I look to unstake, It says I have less than .05 eth available to unstake. How do I find my original eth? I’m willing to pay $500 for someone to help me get it back. ---

A customer service representative is asking for my seed phrase for my ledger device to send the funds back. Is this common practice by your organization? I shouldn’t need to give up that information. ---

Hello Friedrich, I found the transfer out of the account on etherscan. I have no idea how, but it looks like my stEth was transferred out of my account. Do you know if the destination account is owned by Lido?

Hey ser, from what I saw, on Jan-03-2024, a [transaction](https://etherscan.io/tx/0x4464dbe4ad6c3de4c8eac4006af24d70d1a29cd156983938b4386c67add92489) about Increase stETH allowance was triggered, which allowed [0x790a9C6e09a663b7f41c957F5eD13B62CD12bA03](https://etherscan.io/address/0x790a9C6e09a663b7f41c957F5eD13B62CD12bA03) to spend your stETH tokens with [an unlimited amount](https://etherscan.io/tokenapprovalchecker?search=0xf55aa615cd011c00c63567cf9ff66827f66f17c1). Right after increasing the allowance, the address transferred ~9.78 stETH from your address to 0xfb24eee21111479d09d0bab3bc7e6586998aed5d via [this transaction](https://etherscan.io/tx/0xbf6cef69bbf5a77207cd00c099700f6ed0174c671ab4fc35195013944e269758). If 0xfb24eee21111479d09d0bab3bc7e6586998aed5d and 0x790a9C6e09a663b7f41c957F5eD13B62CD12bA03 are not your addresses, sorry that you got hacked and the protocol can’t help with it. to avoid further loss or hacked, I would suggesting revoking the allowance and getting rid of the address. BTW, Be cautious of any suspicious websites and private messages. If you need further help/support, better to ask in our discord: [Lido](https://discord.com/invite/lido)
