So I was playing around with API's and found that Swisscex gives you way too much Information through their API.

So here is a Warning for everybody trading on Swisscex. You should know that everybody who knows how to request Data via an API can see your trades, with your email attached to it. The seller and buyer of the coin are identified by their Account Id and email. Here is an example:

  • => Array
                (
                    [createdAt] => 1413572196441
                    [updatedAt] => 1413572196442
                    [id] => 207715
                    [buyer] => Array
                        (
                            [createdAt] => 1391265555695
                            [updatedAt] => 1391265555695
                            [id] => 207
                            [email] => mr******@yahoo.com
                        )

                    [seller] => Array
                        (
                            [createdAt] => 1409169166744
                            [updatedAt] => 1412470544478
                            [id] => 14311
                            [email] => za******@Gmail.com
                        )
                    }

I censored the emails here.

Be aware if you trade on Swisscex, anybody can see the email you used to sign up and what coins you bought/sold.
I'm not saying don't trade on Swisscex but I thought you should know this.

Thank you for letting us know. Smiley
Wow, I had no clue either.  That is pretty upsetting.  I am not trying to hide but a little protection of my information would be nice and is expected.  Otherwise it is time to use disposable email addresses!

Like I said, useful info on the BCT :p
