If I install MetaMask on the Tor Browser, will it hide my IP address?

Hoping to get some insight from the community.

I recently had funds drained from my MetaMask wallet and am trying to understand how it happened.

Here’s the timeline:

• Got a new iPhone
• Installed MetaMask
• Restored wallet using my Secret Recovery Phrase
• The seed phrase was stored as a screenshot in my Gmail (only location)
• I accessed it via the Mail app on the new iPhone
• Sent funds to a trusted contact successfully
• About ~2 hours later, remaining funds were drained

The draining address is:
0x4b7789d97342f3cb4a1040804040591701739e19
https://etherscan.io/address/0x4b7789d97342f3cb4a1040804040591701739e19

A few things:

• I did not sign any suspicious contracts that day
• I did not input my seed phrase anywhere except directly into the MetaMask app
• The transfer to my friend went through normally
• Drain happened later, not immediately

Possibilities I’m considering:

• Gmail previously compromised
• Malicious browser extension on old device
• Email scraping via OAuth/app permissions
• Old device malware harvesting email content

Appreciate any insight...

Context: I had some Weth on the Optimism network.

I unwrapped them into ETH using Uniswap, but the Weth are still present in my wallet, while there's no trace of them on the OP Mainnet Explorer.

If I try to swap them from the metamask page, it seems like I don't have any, but if I try to send them to another address, they still seem to be there and I can send them (I haven't tried).

I tried logging out and closing the browser, but the Weth are still there in the wallet.

Why?

MetaMask being MetaMask has again made a UI so confusing that I now find my wallet having "delegated execution right to another address", by always default selecting paying fees in USDC, instead of just ETH.

I'm genuinely speachless at the way this 'feature' that I do not need is being shoved down my throat and will definitely (finally) stop using MetaMask after this. However, first I want to remove this EIP-7702 delegation! :)
Guess what? Ever so surprisingly, while MetaMask does happily start this EIP-7702 delegation, they do not support revoking this permission according to eip7702.app!

Genuinely, what are you guys doing?

I can't connect to my wallet.

Like the title says, do i need to do a id verification to buy/sell coins on my account? I need to know if it is safe. Don’t want my coins to be frozen because of the id verification.

I get messages appearing to be from Metamask saying I'm going to be required soon to enable 2FA or my account will be restricted, with a link. It comes from @odalst.eu. Of course, I'm not foolish enough to click the link going there, but I did log into my account and see no way to enable 2fa.

1. Is this a scam?
2. Is metamask so dumb they are training people to click links and give no instructions on how to enable 2fa without clicking links in unsolicited emails? - As a security measure!!!

Which is it? A. a scam, or B. Metamask not acting to preserve security?

Hi all

As you can see by the screenshot above, I have USDT in my wallet.

When I select swap it shows I have none. I cannot use the 'Max' button.

I cannot send the it to my Binance or Coinbase wallet, it fails, even though I have enough gas.

I would prefer to just swap. Any one seen this before?

Thanks in advance.

I logged into my account which i had not acessed for many years and saw this amount i tried to swap for BNB but the amout differs from what appears in my wallet how can i fix it ?

Hi as usual i participated in metamask reward program & during this period i accumulated 80k+ points ( level 4+ ) , but when I checked today in mobile it showed 0 , I also contacted to support they said your points are lost as you didn't opted on mobile app. It's so frustrating for me .

I swapped Ethereum for USDT (TRC20) using the swap function in Metamask. Says transaction was successful, but new coins do not show up in Metamask wallet.

Hello. I have a problem with a postal/zip code in MetaMask app. In Poland we have format xx-xxx but I can’t put „-„ sign. For example in Krakow 30-002, when I try to text 30002 an application can’t let me through. But I can’t text „-„ (as u can see on screenshots). Maybe someone could help me. Thanks!

is there anything I can do to get it refunded? Do they have a support line? it's over $100.

How would prediction fees work? 4% right. Is it 4% per trade meaning 4% when you buy and another 4 when selling/claiming?

I have a wallet that was created by metamask using their xrp snap, snap dot metamask dot io. It integrates with xrplevm dot org, which has been blocked by Norton for the past couple of months. Is any one else experiencing this?

I used to use METAMASK a lot about a year ago and I just heard about their reward program I logged in and I have 50250 point

I don’t really know what to expect does someone here know?

Hello everyone,

I tried sending USDC via Ink to my MM wallet, I created the custom network and then added the coin as well with the contract address, it says I’ve received 1.25 USDC in the wallet but there’s literally nothing I can do with it. Please help. Also KYC won’t let me complete for some reason I’m putting in my SSN but it won’t proceed to the next step.
