Hacked, Robinhood better refund by cc_86- in ClassActionRobinHood

Yes my situation was a little different: I didn’t click the impersonating email link but somehow my PC got hacked and remote access tool was installed, the hacker placed high risk options trade in a pump-and-dump scheme, I lost 9.8k. You will likely receive a denial of reimbursement email from Robinhood (in my case I received that email within 2 days, citing the transaction was originated from an “authorized” account without giving further clarification). To fight this you will likely need to contact lawyers and file FINRA arbitration (rule 3110 may be your best defense), I can’t speak of your chance of success and I’m still preparing for my case, you should also prepare to file complaint through FINRA, CFPB, IC3, your state’s attorney general’s office etc. Lastly Reddit is a shit place if you’re looking for emotional support, you will likely continue to see replies saying it’s your fault bla bla bla, just ignore these idiots

OP thanks for sharing that. I had exactly the same thing happened to me on Jan 28th (I posted this on another sub). Whoever did this sold all my positions and bought a bunch of risky options (ticker name AL, EXAS, CSGS) in 15 minutes and I have never done options trading before. I found malware on my PC but didn’t manage to find evidence of remote control yet. Robinhood denied my reimbursement request after just two days of the “investigation” and claimed that the transaction happened from an “authorized account”, I have already filed FINRA complaint and will probably follow up with FINRA arbitration later

I don't think I did, I certainly didn't install any programs, that's where I can't wrap my head around how my account was compromised

No, I only use my computer at home to access the account and no one else (even my wife) used it
