  One way to detect if your Metamask wallet has been hacked is to check for any unauthorized transactions. Regularly review your transaction history and look for any suspicious or unfamiliar transactions. If you notice any unauthorized activity, it's possible that your wallet has been compromised. In such cases, it's important to immediately report the incident to Metamask support and take necessary steps to secure your funds. Additionally, you can enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for your Metamask wallet to add an extra layer of security.
