Extra careful upon handling our accounts, treat this as one of your valuable stuff if you value your account. So far, I never change password and I never visit my email address.
Agree with the bolded part above 100%, and that sucks nuts that BitcoinGirl.Club got hacked like that.

I would probably cry like a baby if that happens to me mygoodness.
I probably would as well, and it would drive me insane trying to undo whatever damage had been caused by the hack, plus I'd probably be paranoid as hell for an indeterminate amount of time.  I've had my e-mail address in my BCT profile hidden for as long as I can remember, but I changed my e-mail address to a throwaway one just now. 

OP, I appreciate you creating this thread.  Even though I was apparently safe, it's a good thing to let the community know about things like this that they might not even think twice about, especially newbies who might not be aware of how many hackers and scammers there are in the cracks and under the floorboards of the forum.
