This is one of the reasons we have turned off sending for now. We noticed this as well, and are trying to figure out what happened exactly.. For now we are suspecting someone used our first API to do this. We kept it around for some compatibilty issues, but it's deprecated now. The new API is MUCH more improved. We don't want to restore sending until we are 100% sure this won't happen again.

Glad to hear you noticed and are on it Smiley  having bought MCZ last month at the higher price, and continuing to buy as it dropped it was a bit of shock to see the supply shoot up like that.  

We are really sorry for what happened, those users will be banned. We are all over it Smiley

how exactly would you go about banning those users...
you can ban their usernames but they can always register new usernames
you cant ban by ip because ips can be changed, proxied, or hidden behind a vpn
you can try to ban their imei's but imei's can be spoofed/faked eliminating your ability to do this
you would have to re-think your entire system to try to combat something such as this as you will not be able to stop them from re-registering and evading any attempt to ban them

the point is this system is fundamentally broken and its going to take alot of time and effort to fix it so that it is not easily abusable by any party willing to spend enough time to look into it

btw what about the user with all the 3 character accounts who seems to be botting the system somehow

Which user and usernames are you reffering to?
