I have not clicked on any links in the trollbox. I received some bull$h!t email from support today.

Re: **OFFICIAL? - My BTC-e Account Got Hacked and All Funds Stolen thread
First MtGox delays, then bitcoin-24.com, then terracoin ASICwars (and terrawallet), slush DDoS, now BTC-e. 
I do not know if I have been hacked, but I cannot get to my finances, balance, account setting. Written to BTCe support several minutes ago and waiting for reply.

I have been waiting a few days for a new reply from them.
With the e-mail to request withdrawa security feature, does that mean that you have to e-mail support and wait days everyteim you want to withdraw bitcoins?
Also i enabled it, then went back to disable it, but it doesn't show as being enabled?

I think it means that when you request a withdrawal it will send you an email and you must confirm it via email
Did BTC-E advise you they where going to do something about what happened? They should at least try to help you?
That's the funny thing. The first responded to my email say that there was a BTC-e Code. When I attempted to redeem the code, I got an error stating that it had already been redeemed. I let them know and then they sent me an email showing me the last IP's that accessed my account and that was the end of it in regards to any type of communication from their support.
Shouldn't they be able to see who it was that redeemed that code and possible reverse the transaction as it is a fraudulent one?
This is what is so frustrating to me, that I am up in there air as to what they are doing to remedy the situation. Don't know if they are going to do something about it or leave me holding the bag. Their silence is killing me.
one way of making you a potential target is by using the chatbox. have you posted messages on the chatbox ?
I did not use the chatbox at all. I funded the account on the 4/16 and placed an order to buy. On 4/17 the account was hacked, order was canceled and my code was redeemed for all my funds.
If you by any chance have enabled firewall logging in ur Windows u can check if these IPs are also logged there.
I will check. I do know that I have logging enabled on my router, will take a look as well. Thanks
Has anyone else here had this happen to them?
Are you special for some reason. OZcoin pool got attacked. That's targeted. Does anyone have physical access to your computer?
First of all, at no point in time did I specify I was special. I am trying to determine if anyone else ( on BTC-e ) has had this happen to them and had it resolved. So I suggest if you have nothing useful to contribute to the topic, you can keep your comments to yourself.
Actually he is usefull. And that's a valid question.
Attacks/hacks are usually targeted and untargeted, as you said you have common security sense, so it may be a targeted attack, then, if it was, the question is why you?
Physically, no one has access to my computer but me. From the little info given to me by support at BTC-e, the 2 IPs that accessed my account, one was from the Netherlands and the other from Germany, I reside in the US.

I did not at the time of the incident
I work in the technology field so tend to stay up on the latest versions of software and make it a point to be up to date on the updates. There is another thread on this site related to the same issue I am having but I cannot post there as of yet. So I figured I would start one up in the only place I can vent my frustrations at the moment.
looks like I will be setting up one of my spare machines.
don't trust all apps you download on internet (crack version), and keep update your OS
I am good in that sense. I am not in the habit of downloading cracked versions of software.
