https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-12-22/robinhood-user-says-300-000-restored-from-hack-then-taken-back Gangti Zhu, a Maryland retiree, says he put almost his entire life savings into a Robinhood Markets account this year, only to lose about $300,000 in a hack. He describes the same painstaking experience that other users have encountered: a panicked search for a phone number, a slew of emails after finding there’s no emergency line and then relief when the money was finally returned to his account.
not clear how the money is lost. Unauthorized options trading and the hacker took the opposite position? What if those actually made money？I think most brokerage firms require one to apply for option trading maybe robinhood is different? 300K is halft of his retirement. He claims he only has $34.61 in his saving but a retired guy with no emergency funds??? I do feel sorry for him.
没追回来啊，不是说robinhood后来又把钱转走了么 The key difference, he says, is that Robinhood then took the funds back. “Our team concluded its investigation and determined that your account was not compromised and that no unauthorized activity took place in your account,” read the Dec. 4 email from a customer support representative named Greg P., seen by Bloomberg. “As a result of our findings, we removed the corrections made by Robinhood.”
Robinhood is not a bank. Likely it has SIPC insurance upto 500K per. Other brokage firms (like fidelity) uses multiple banks behind their accounts to provide a better insurance.

大叔长得还挺和善的

少操作，才能多赚钱。
别的不说,robinhood真的好好用，特别适合我这种炒股小白。我的robinhood也是出了好几次问题，最后都解决了。开了一个fidelity，可是它太难用了，最后还是回到robinhood。
真理。我周五割肉的股票，割完就猛涨。周一割肉的股票，割完也猛涨。这还不算，割完肉就去买其它股票。结果买的新股又在跌，还不如死守着那些跌的股票呢。算了算，我所有买过的股票，如果不卖，账户至少翻倍。现在还小亏。
买到满仓就把app卸了，眼不见心不烦 只要不着急等钱用就不要去管股票账户，只要不是垃圾股长线看肯定都是赚的。
同觉得。看标题还以为是打电话那种骗子骗的呢，这种应该能找回来
我都是去robinhood看看 然后在fidelity买卖
那他肯定不上huaren
大多炒股的人跟你感觉一样
部明白为啥用ROBINHOOD。那么多大的BROKER。
因为Robinhood用户界面特别干净。什么beta, sharpie ratio, prospectus统统没有，很适合股市小白。

这个怎么操作的？通过option trading钱被盗走？
真是这样
这，有点厉害啊
对新手不友好
退休指的是总资产。比如，华人标配是有八百万房产，一百万401K，六十万现金，所以拿了一半放robinhood，一半比特币，一千万在望啊。
