I think preliminary, we can treat this as a VERY good hoax.

Indeed; if the MagicalTux quote from Twitter is to be believed.  Does the OP have anything to say in response to this?  It does seem a shame if JRam tried to take advantage of the bitcoin community if this is true.

I'm out $4,000 but what else can I say to prove my case against the CEO himself? $4,000 might not seem like a lot to the wealthier folks but it is a lot to me. Why would I just sit on my Mt. Gox Yubikey that they sent me and never use it until now?  I have also sent Mt. Gox my real personal info to get the verified account so they should know me very well. The only argument I can make if this CEO keeps claiming that I didn't use my Yubikey is this:

"When you think about it, the IP address that stole my coins was from China and I am based in the US. Any half decent business would find this to be a red flag and delay the withdrawal. Maybe Mt. Gox is deliberately letting these glaring red flags slide? "
