Hi All,
Just came across the story, thanks for sharing your thoughts. The Forbes article is very poorly written, skewed the facts from source articles.
Please have a read of the below, which better summarises what actually happened.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-07-03/melbourne-bitcoin-trader-loses-70000-to-hacker/5567292- My computer was never infected with malware, it was a successful phishing attack that gave them access to my emails
- The hacker never "transferred" 100 bitcoins away all by themselves, it was sent to them by our staff after they carried out an elaborate social engineering edge case
If anything else, feel free to drop me a PM.
Cheers,
Sam
