Just a warning:

15 minutes ago I received an email from Mt. Gox with a requested password recovery link. Thing is, I didnt request this.
I now tried to log into my account with my old pw and it doesnt work.
I have 2-step turned on on gox AND my email account and nobody has access to my email account anyway.

This is at least strange and I just wanted to send this out as a warning.

It was the same at my acc.
This is the IP:67.165.253.176.
Luckily I have 2FA too and the support told me that there has been no withdrawal today, but I am not able to login the next 24h.

Was/is your username a real word or a word with a number on the end / beginning - something that might appear in a long list of usernames ?



gox userlist has leaked a year or so back, afaik. Did you have the account with unchanged username for that long? (I didn't change my username after the leak, should I?).

Triggering password reset seems harmless, unless of course the attacker has access (or can snoop on) your email traffic.
