Re: Poloniex account hacked and all monies traded away, TICKET NUMBER # 273741
The hacked account started with the letter A.
Btw, polo support blamed me, case closed. However, that's not good enough. They are an American company, and I am American, and we Do have consumer protection here.
Also it looks like person number 3 has been hacked on polo.
If this isn't a warning sign to leave polo, then I don't know what is.
So what letter of the alphabet are you, and is this your first name or surname?

My working theory is that the attackers hacked polo, got a list of non 2fa, then went manually through them alphabetical.
The hacker has been able to do this for atleast a month and a half.
The hacker drained my account nearly exactly like yours by setting counter trades.
Yes polo should be able to track this, have they made any effort to call in authorities? I doubt it.
Hence, I believe they should be opened to a lawsuit.

Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
Wow, you are a dick. I get your point about a strong pw, but you are still a dick.
To the other person who insisted that I didn't change my password, this was a new account, it got hacked within a few weeks of opening it.
Btw folks the hacker Still has access to polo accounts and is still draining them.

2FA is actually less secure than a strong password. Phone accounts can be easily hacked via various methods. In fact, I am suspecting that OP is really a hacker that is trying to make Polo accounts less secure by getting them to require 2FA.
Accounts with 2FA allow a password reset using your phone, that is how Coinbase accounts get hacked all the time. If you don't use 2FA on your Coinbase account, you can't be hacked with a strong password.
2FA = hacker's wet dream
2FA is like requiring home owners to put multiple locks on their guns so that they can't quickly arm themselves if they get robbed.
I just used my Keepass to generate this 24 digit password: Ã:äPrQÕ¾+N=í©Sÿ3ƽ§«7Ùà2
I checked the generator and there are a potential of over a hundred different characters, so 100^24 = over 10^48 possible combinations.
There is no way OP can hack 10^48 possible combinations, so he wants to degrade security by using the 2FA back door method.
This is how you know OP is a hacker.

Third person, same hack. Wtf??!!
hello the exact same thing happened to me yesterday, someone hacked into my account and sold all my coins and started to buy bcn, this has happened to a few other people also, also if you check bcn on polo its having problems so its clearly happened to a few people, when i logged onto my account they was in my account then i got locked out, froze my account straight away and contacted poloniex
Hi Guys,
First of please be nice and constructive. I had my fortune stolen away and I am at a very bad place, infact I am depressed ($17000 worth of my savings that took me more than 8 years to save). I would appreciate if you guys can give me honest suggestions of what to do or if there is any chance Poloniex will refund me for the hack that happened.
So here is what happened as I sent email to Poloniex but they have not responded to me yet:
TICKET NUMBER # 271818
Dear Poloniex,
My account was hacked this morning at 2:50 am BST (british standard time). I am devastated as I had upwards of $17000 worth of portfolio of coins. Someone logged into my account, converted all the coins to BTC first, then to BCN, then he went on to a very illiquid BCN/XMR and started buying high and selling very low at huge spreads. I suspect he was on the other side of the trade to profit from it. I am sure you can easily find out who the culprit by checking on the other side of the trade.
Please check the activity between 2:50 am - 3:00 am BST (british standard time). This is a clear theft where your site has been hacked to gain access to my account and upwards of $17000 was stolen from my account.
I have contacted the Attorney General at your state who has advised me to contact you directly first before taking it further with him.
I have the evidence of the email I received at 2:50 am BST, the ip address where it was logged in from and I have also downloaded the transactions to prove it.
Please look into this issue asap and get back to me please. This is my hard earned savings over past 7 years and I will leave no stone unturned to get this resolved.
Thanks
So here is the email above. Please suggest what to do, I have also reported it to Police and action fraud. I did not have 2FA. I did not use this password on any other sites.
I know I am very silly not to have 2FA. This thread is all about what options I have, please suggest.
Thanks in advance
HERE IS HOW THE ATTACK UNFOLDED
Here is how the attack unfolded:
Someone hacked into my account on the 26th of June at 02:50 AM BST (British standard time) to do unauthorised trading. First he converted all my coins into bitcoin. Then bought BCN form BTC. Then the attacker went on to XMR/BCN (which is very illiquid) and traded a very wide spread, kept buying very high and selling very low until my account turned from $17000 to mere $450. To carry out this attack the hacker must have been on the other side of this illiquid XMR/BCN pair to profit from i.e., collecting huge spread in the process by trading his account against my hacked account

First of please be nice and constructive. I had my fortune stolen away and I am at a very bad place, infact I am depressed ($17000 worth of my savings that took me more than 8 years to save). I would appreciate if you guys can give me honest suggestions of what to do or if there is any chance Poloniex will refund me for the hack that happened.
So here is what happened as I sent email to Poloniex but they have not responded to me yet:
TICKET NUMBER # 271818
Dear Poloniex,
My account was hacked this morning at 2:50 am BST (british standard time). I am devastated as I had upwards of $17000 worth of portfolio of coins. Someone logged into my account, converted all the coins to BTC first, then to BCN, then he went on to a very illiquid BCN/XMR and started buying high and selling very low at huge spreads. I suspect he was on the other side of the trade to profit from it. I am sure you can easily find out who the culprit by checking on the other side of the trade.
Please check the activity between 2:50 am - 3:00 am BST (british standard time). This is a clear theft where your site has been hacked to gain access to my account and upwards of $17000 was stolen from my account.
I have contacted the Attorney General at your state who has advised me to contact you directly first before taking it further with him.
I have the evidence of the email I received at 2:50 am BST, the ip address where it was logged in from and I have also downloaded the transactions to prove it.
Please look into this issue asap and get back to me please. This is my hard earned savings over past 7 years and I will leave no stone unturned to get this resolved.
Thanks
So here is the email above. Please suggest what to do, I have also reported it to Police and action fraud. I did not have 2FA. I did not use this password on any other sites.
I know I am very silly not to have 2FA. This thread is all about what options I have, please suggest.
Thanks in advance
HERE IS HOW THE ATTACK UNFOLDED
Here is how the attack unfolded:
Someone hacked into my account on the 26th of June at 02:50 AM BST (British standard time) to do unauthorised trading. First he converted all my coins into bitcoin. Then bought BCN form BTC. Then the attacker went on to XMR/BCN (which is very illiquid) and traded a very wide spread, kept buying very high and selling very low until my account turned from $17000 to mere $450. To carry out this attack the hacker must have been on the other side of this illiquid XMR/BCN pair to profit from i.e., collecting huge spread in the process by trading his account against my hacked account

hello the exact same thing happened to me yesterday, someone hacked into my account and sold all my coins and started to buy bcn, this has happened to a few other people also, also if you check bcn on polo its having problems so its clearly happened to a few people, when i logged onto my account they was in my account then i got locked out, froze my account straight away and contacted poloniex
Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
At the end of may there was a polo ddos attack, the official story was too many new users. That is the time my account was hacked.
I really feel that the attacker got a list of non 2fa accounts and just started going alphabetical. This other user had the exact same thing happen, A full fucking month later. Coincidence that both accounts started with an A?
Doubt it.
Polo was and is still compromised.

Polo was and is still compromised.
My working theory is that the attackers hacked polo, got a list of non 2fa, then went manually through them alphabetical.
The hacker has been able to do this for atleast a month and a half.
The hacker drained my account nearly exactly like yours by setting counter trades.
Yes polo should be able to track this, have they made any effort to call in authorities? I doubt it.
Hence, I believe they should be opened to a lawsuit.
My Account started with A as well (we may be on to something here)!! but not, I did not contact their help desk at all before that,
Did you see any unauthorized activity on your account?

In my case ,at the end of May, I booted fresh from a livelinux CD and used a new email address. The only thing I did different was I had to contact their help desk.
So I'm not sure how my account was compromised then.
Also my compromised account started with an A, so I assume hacker got access to polo database an went alphabetical.
Op did you previously contact the polo help desk for anything.
Also what letter did your account begin with?

Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
Reread the thread. I used a fresh boot from a livelinux cd. And used a fresh email account. If email account was hacked why not just withdraw, why trade the value out? No, it seems to me polo help desk or polo is ,has been, and still is hacked.
The exact same thing has happened to others.
Polo is complicit and negligent. They are complicit cause they made $ off the theft and then investigated themselves and found no wrong doing. And then low and behold it happened again to somone else.
wrong!
it's people and their shitty computers getting hacked.
i bet you guys have wallets, login to exchanges and other valuable stuff on the same computer you use to watch porn, open any email attachments and visit other lame site that would refill your stupid windows os with malware and keyloggers
yes, start a class action and people will laugh at you

Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
Some people will never learn.
Oh, Ive learned that only 2fa is really secure, until it aint.
So why is it not mandatory, the whole point of this thread.
Of course id like my litecoin back. And I want the fees polo made off my theft back.
However, I am simply arguing for 2fa to be mandatory at polo. The fact that it isn't, when this is a repeat problem effecting several people should leave them open to a lawsuit.
Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
In case any of you were wondering. I boot from a live linux cd before any exchange activity or email and reboot inbetween steps.
And just randomly the account gets hit right after contacting customer support.
I still have the qora in my account, that is evidence of a crime. If they delete it they are destroying evidence.
Polo also made and kept the transaction fees from the theft.
Thats pretty fucked up to make money off of a theft.

I don't believe you. Why not just use 2FA instead of this nonsense then? Unless you use a unique, otherwise unused email, with a unique password, it's a useless excercise.
You have to have your email hacked to allow the hacker to recover your poloniex password and do the deed.
If my email was hacked then why not just withdraw the whole amount? They didn't withdraw anything. Just a transfer to btc then, to xmr, then to qora which they left me a bag full of, and they got the xmr and out the door with their account.
The email was new, the polo acc was new. The polo account was maybe two weeks old and began with an A.
I believe that they hacked polo, and got a list of non 2fa accounts and started alphabeticaly at the top.
Youre right, why not just use 2fa? That is what Im arguing. Why is it NOT mandatory? Polo is like swiss cheese. They know this yet wont dont change their policy.
Read my spoetnik quote in my last post.
Polo is not secure and is not trust worthy. And I believe have opened themselves up to a lawsuit.
Don't yall have consumer protection across the pond? I bet you do.

Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
The victim blaming here is over the top. Dangerous products get recalled all the time. This is a repeat issue.
Of note, mine happened end of may, this guy just recently. Polo allows this to happen or is in on it.

Same exact shit happened to me.
Polo is in on it, I guarantee it 100%
This happened at the end of may. They ultimately traded out my 600 litecoins to fucking qora, first to btc, then xmr.
Polo is like swiss cheese.
Actually Im very certain it was one of the help desk fucktards as I had contacted support a week prior. I had this particular account for maybe two weeks before it was hacked the exact same way as yours.
If polo is this insecure, why the hell haven't they fixed this problem. Make 2fa mandatory.
Polo is probably insolvent, and hence hacking users accounts using this method. Their response is always, its your fault not ours.
Fuck them

Hi Guys,
First of please be nice and constructive. I had my fortune stolen away and I am at a very bad place, infact I am depressed ($17000 worth of my savings that took me more than 8 years to save). I would appreciate if you guys can give me honest suggestions of what to do or if there is any chance Poloniex will refund me for the hack that happened.
So here is what happened as I sent email to Poloniex but they have not responded to me yet:
TICKET NUMBER # 273741
Dear Poloniex,
My account was hacked this morning at 2:50 am BST (british standard time). I am devastated as I had upwards of $17000 worth of portfolio of coins. Someone logged into my account, converted all the coins to BTC first, then to BCN, then he went on to a very illiquid BCN/XMR and started buying high and selling very low at huge spreads. I suspect he was on the other side of the trade to profit from it. I am sure you can easily find out who the culprit by checking on the other side of the trade.
Please check the activity between 2:50 am - 3:00 am BST (british standard time). This is a clear theft where your site has been hacked to gain access to my account and upwards of $17000 was stolen from my account.
I have contacted the Attorney General at your state who has advised me to contact you directly first before taking it further with him.
I have the evidence of the email I received at 2:50 am BST, the ip address where it was logged in from and I have also downloaded the transactions to prove it.
Please look into this issue asap and get back to me please. This is my hard earned savings over past 7 years and I will leave no stone unturned to get this resolved.
Thanks
So here is the email above. Please suggest what to do, I have also reported it to Police and action fraud. I did not have 2FA. I did not use this password on any other sites.
I know I am very silly not to have 2FA. This thread is all about what options I have, please suggest.
Thanks in advance

Staff can steal it then play dumb.. Implying hackers.
Perfect crime.. It would impossible to catch the staff doing it because they all operate with 0 transparency.
Think about it people.. I am just pointing out common sense.

Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
You guys are funny.
Polo clearly isnt safe for accounts without 2fa.
Polo knows its site continually gets hacked by this type of attack.
Polo is guilty by allowing this to continue. Easy lawsuit win.
Edit. Polo also made and kept money from the fraud, ie transaction fees. Sounds guilty by association to me.

Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
How many deaths in traffic does it take for you to fasten your seatbelt?
I completely agree.
This is the choice of everyone. And to force, does not make sense.
Says the hacker..
Seriously, no 2fa, you might as well give the hacker your monies up front. Polo knows accounts keep getting hacked. They do nothing. Their complacency has opened them up to a lawsuit
Re: How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a lollipop?
Ok lets stay on topic.
Polo and their complacency has exposed them to the possibility of a class action lawsuit.
How many hacked polo accounts does it take for them to make 2fa mandatory?
Polo continually is getting hacked. User accounts without 2fa are the target. Value in said accounts is traded out to the attackers benefit.
Polo is complacent in this. They know and do nothing. They are enabling this to happen. Most likely they are insolvent and or are in on it. Very shaddy!
Its time for a class action lawsuit.

Re: Qora | POS | Assets | Names | Polls | Automated Transactions | Social Network
Crowetic mentioned about qora twitter news, but there too it is quiet.
Peanutbutterpolka I have all the time to sync to qora wallet, you have to do something wrong. You probably have an outdated list of network nodes
Peanutbutterpolka I have all the time to sync to qora wallet, you have to do something wrong. You probably have an outdated list of network nodes
If my outdated nodes didnt work why was I able to get synced to about 4%?
The wallet literally just freezes after a few hours of it appearing to connect. The connections all drop at the same time.
The nodes and instructions I added came from the crowetic post about 5-6 pages back. Plus a few other people listed nodes on a few posts after his.
So, if you have gotten qora to work and sync then what wallet version did you use, and what os?
