I agree with the OP this is a damn shame and I wish I new which site this was. I'm expecting we may find out soon enough. But with this type of thing I think the sooner the better, especially when it comes to peoples funds and the poor way the situation is being handled.

It means the operator put up a fake message saying something along the lines of "maintenance". Or a scheduled downtime.
Damn piss poor way to do business if you ask me.
