How I lost 30.000 Euro (4,22btc) on BTG.

[TradePlex]

Here's my story, I'm currently very, VERY depressed, and got suicidal thoughts, I'll leave my mark here..
On 8th of November, I heard about a next fork (Something similair like BCH), on the bitcoin chain. I'm just 17 years old, and I was the proud owner of 4,22 BTC and 4,22 BCH. I had bought this amount when the price was 600$/btc, and invested this out of my own pocket, it was meant for a motorcycle, but I thought I'd give it a shot. Now, few years later, the price for 4,22 was plus-minus 30000 euro. So I was interested in this BTG fork, and looked on their site. The site hosted this wallet: "mybtgwalle*****m" It was featured on their website, and it allowed you to import your stuff in to a BTG wallet, it was open source so nothing could go wrong, right? There's no disclaimer on their website, no nothing. So I check my balance, right, and it says proudly 4,22 BTG. I'm happy, wouldn't I be. So I leave it, and the next day I come back and check my BTC wallet, it says ALL my bitcoins have been sent to an EXCHANGE. An freaking exchange, I've not even touched my wallet. (My wallet is blockchain.info). I'm in shock, all my live savings, everything, GONE. I'm trying to contact BTG support team, and I hope this message reaches out to them. Because they were the ones who featured this "scam" wallet on their website as "Trusted". They now removed it, with a disclaimer that they're not responsible, what a surprise. I'm HOPING I get atleast the equal amount to my BTG/BCH or any compensation even if it's not the full amount to make this right, I really don't know what to do, I haven't been outside for 2 days now.. I wasn't expecting this to happen.. Please help me reach to the BTG team, and hopefully solve this..

This is why you buy a hardware wallet (esp if you hold any amount above $1000), and wait for your hardware wallet to support a fork.

This is also why you join the crypto crew ( https://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1310949 ) and we would've told you that in any fork, these are the steps.
1. Hold money in Wallet A before the fork
2. Fork happens.
3. Transfer your BTC from Wallet A into brand new Wallet B
4. Input your Wallet A recovery phrase into a forking tool.
5. Get your free dividends

Not a big loss if you lose your dividends. Though a huge loss if you lose your BTC

I get it, but how is this all my fault? They shouldn't have featured that wallet in the first place without concrete evidence that it's safe? Like what the hell?

The main problem is that you are depressed about losing money, thats your main problem right now.
Fuck money man

Its not your fault but you didn't take precaution.

[HuntedCS]

To be honest you took no precaution, but best of luck on any possible recovery!

It's your fault for trusting something like BTG. If you need to send your BTC to THEIR wallet to receive BTG, it's not legit. It's a fork, so it should be forked from the chain. It would've have been there in any wallet until the wallet supports that chain.

The most expensive lesson I'll get.

I still wonder how you handled your Blockchain security. I mean, Blockchain has a very good system when it comes to 2FA and things like that.

I don't know how the scam happened. If they asked you for your Paper Wallet, well, that's it.
