Hello - first of all, this is horrible news, and I hope it is resolved very soon. We're behind you 100%.

I am still unclear on 2 issues you mentioned.
1) Does Dwolla owe you guys any money? Have you lost any funds after reversals?
2) You said your blog post was going to walk us through how this happened, but I only see that it did happen, not how they/you were scammed. First the funds in the transaction you got were confirmed and then they were reversed. Do you know how the scammer got his transfer confirmed in the first place?

Best wishes.

1) $37,000 lost roughly, we caught another $27,000 and prevented it from leaving.
2) I should clarify that, when Dwolla credited the account the user bought BTC and moved it out.

Thank you for your support! Hopefully Dwolla will do the right thing and reimburse this.

So how and why did this happen to tradehill and not mtgox?

Surely the "scammer" would attempt to defraud the largest, already-proven-to-be-incompetent exchange, no?

It's impossible to guess why they would attack TradeHill and not Mt Gox. I see no reason they wouldn't try. I hope they haven't. It's possible that they stopped after we caught them and this is the end of it.
We're going to have to wait and see what comes of this. It's going to be very interesting to say the least.
