Pure lies.  All of it except for the unsalted passwords.  Alex has created several of these threads for some reason.  He uses several socks to bump them.  All of it is complete bullshit.

Last night an unknown site was compromised.  Someone was trying the DB of username/passwords against mcxNOW accounts.  After 1 theft of B was verified the site immediately went into lockdown to prevent other nubs who didn't use unique passwords from losing their money as well.
