What happens if my wallet gets "hacked" and my BTC is stolen?

7

What if my wallet gets hacked and the hacker transfers all BTC to his account? Is there is any way to get it back, or to open a dispute to specific address or anything else?

All BTC transfers are final. If a hacker moved your BTC elsewhere, you can't get it back.

You have to keep your funds safe. See https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Securing_your_wallet.

With an EWallet, insist on a two-factor authentication: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/4113
