Has any of the "hacking incidents" got confirmed or acknowledged by by Mt.Gox? I'm not aware of such a confirmation ... I would push for an official statement to make sure this is not a FUD campaign by some people ... I do not want to accuse anyone of anything but this is the Internet - it generally isn't a good idea to take a word of some anonymous pseudonym on a forum seriously especially in cases where money is involved.

In one instance the "victim" claimed to have $7,000 withdrawn even that only $1,000 is possible a day, something doesn't smell right here.

Oh, hey, I'm pretty sure that's me.

I can't vouch for the other claims, but I really was. I talked to MagicalTux about it, and he can verify my claims. This is not to say this isn't part of an orchestrated attack, as it would seem that someone is brute forcing passwords, which plays into the greater narrative of something fishy going on. I know I'll never convince everyone that I'm being honest as this is the internet and all, but whatever. All I was ever saying is that people need to make sure to not be naive about their password security, not that Mt. Gox shouldn't be trusted (though they do need some sort of secondary to password account confirmation!!).
