So back in June 15th I bought some coins from guy on #bitcoin-otc and decided to sell these on mtgox. I successfully transferred my 50.56 btc to freshly generated address -

I did not use email during registration but I did wrote down password and I am 100% sure it was correct one.
I did write at
info@mtgox.com several emails and so far I seen only auto responses. I thought my account was hacked due leaked database with passwords (although, while password is not long, but it is not from any possible dictionary). I strated waiting until they fix their system.
The only thing I did not like, one fellow member from this forum pointed that my account was marked as "locked" at their database -
http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=19221.msg264466#msg264466two days ago I went through "reclaiming" process and got access to mtgox.com. Although my balance page was empty (not that I was seeing 0.00 or my 50.56 there, but simply empty). And history did not contain any transactions or logs besides me creating account and loggin in.
I wrote to
info@mtgox.com with details on transaction I sent - again, no reply as usual. And today - bam, I can not login to my account again! (password was written down and very complex).
So.. What I think is going on - mtgox lost quite a bit of coins due their error and now try to recouple these with stealing money from smallish and new accounts!
Beware, never ever leave anything in mtgox, if you absolutelly need to - do trades in small amounts, or better - use tradehill.com!
