And before you ask, no I did not have 2fa set up (lesson learned).

Have any others been hacked?

Some low life scumbag just emptied my bittrex account of 1300 rads, 800 exp and 15000 aur.

They dumped my coins, but there was no withdraws in my withdraw history, and no withdraw requests in my email?

I changed my password straight away.

I mailed support@bittrex.com, i'm waiting for a reply.

And for some reason they bought a load of EXCL and dumped EXCL: https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-EXCL

Fucking gutted.

I have no idea how they got in. I'm going to format both my towers.

Anyone have richie from bittrex's user name so I can PM him?

So i am curious was your coins taken off the server lost?
This sounds like the Cryptsy points hack incident where Cryptsy claims no coins left the server.
See what i mean?

Did some hacker got into your account OP and then make trades but did not withdraw your coins?

If this wasn't clarified before, your assertion is correct here. In all cases we've seen, the attacker traded down the balances and withdrew on the other side. No withdraw's were done from the compromised accounts. If that isn't accurate in any cases, please let me know.

thanks,
richie@bittrex
