I urge members of Cex.io to change their password and add extra security e.g authenticator.
Reason being, I stumbled across a website that looked like cex.io, which was cex-io.com.
Funny enough you could log on via this fake site. Unfortunately I was one of those unlucky souls. I didn't know, I just typed in cex in google and it came up on top.

I consulted with Cex.io support and they replied:

Hey there ***,
We have no affiliation with cex-io.com
I already notified the domain registrar of the copyright violation and the website was closed.
Thank you for your notification.

I also asked them to make a global announcement about this, but they haven't done it yet, nor willing to.
This could be an inside job or I could be wrong, either way it pissed me off.

Take care peeps, and change your password!

The reason you could login is because it was proxying to the real site, in the process storing a copy of your login credentials.
