Wallet drained in malicious transfer call from staked LINK wallet.

Howdy y'all.

I'm not sure where to turn. I had 1500 LINK drained in what I can only assume is a phishing scam. I make a point of not clicking on things, but who knows.

Because I make a point of not auto-connecting the Metamask extension, this was the transaction I do not recall ever signing: https://etherscan.io/tx/0xa3f013aa20ea4570f10d2a576d002763aa27a09653f811df19e812d11bd8e4d2

Chainlink has a 30 cool-down period for withdrawing rewards. It is my deep hope that can abate some of the damage. Barring that, if anyone knows any white hats to suggest it would be great to not lose a future down payment on a house. FML.

edit

To everyone telling me the transaction above is the bad actor going to and from themselves, I know. I'm trying to recreate how I came upon it, but suffice it to say it was related to the 3rd to last transaction displayed on the malicious wallet. It's my thoroughly unprofessional guess that whatever was going on in there was related to this next part.

I was sent 70,000 GRT, apparently, here: https://etherscan.io/token/0xfc76099aa3100f12150a2472e7111caf9ddd0c11?a=0xa6f350ecd9ed6b40c48e7ad265e37f8dfb00bd91

Here's my wallet: https://etherscan.io/address/0xa6f350ecd9ed6b40c48e7ad265e37f8dfb00bd91

Yes. I see it says my LINK is staked. Click on "analytics" and then "token transfers" underneath.

Chainlink got back to me to say there's not much to be done and they'll forward my email to interested internal parties. I've got a support ticket open with MetaMask.

EDIT LET OP's STUPIDITY SERVE AS A LESSON TO ALL: UNINSTALL AND REINSTALL YOUR WALLET BROWSER EXTENSIONS BEFORE DOXXING YOURSELF FOR NO REASON.
