Do you feel completely stupid now?
You're claiming our posts are complete fake, but you're just a stupid dumb troll.

To be completely honest, it's highly unlikely that we have lost a single dollar here.
The fiat currency is all in "confirmed" status withdrawals, and all the BTC have been withdrawn before the event.

But still, it's possible that this account has been compromised. And i think there was an open balance of a few hundreds (nothing that we would care about, but better than nothing for a polish attacker).

I'm reposting a message from another user who apparently had the same issue today: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=255644.0


Wow,

Quite convenient that a newbie account created AFTER your initial post has the exact same unconfirmed, unsubstantiated issue as you. Even more convenient is that you find it within an hour of its creation and use it as validation. Even more extraordinary is that this user with only 1 post has the ability to find your moderator buried post.

Give it up, your MTGOX FUD attempt failed and if you aren't attempting to spread FUD, being as stupid as I have pointed out deserves to be ripped off.

The newbie PMed me since he couldn't post on the original topic.
The moderator didn't bury the initial post, as you claim, at all: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=255661.0
The newbie will surely be able to confirm by providing identification information, once MtGox confirms all these accounts are frozen for investigation.

You're going to feel very stupid, again. (After ignoring all my posts that asked you for facts)
You must be alone in front of your PC, and because you don't make any money, you try to insult via forums people that do. Get a life for the last time, you're not welcome on this topic.

The hacker can potentially use the reset code, if he is able to sniff the traffic between MtGox mail server and your receiving mail server.
Actually not very hard to do if you've got some insider contact in the datacenter where MtGox colocate their servers.
Reset emails are sent in clear for convenience.

If it has been compromised, it is quite an interesting attack, since it implies getting your hands on MtGox database (at least the user ID or emails list) and being able to sniff their servers traffic in their Florida colocation.

But you have 2-Factor Authentication enabled right???

Then they couldnt get into your account with just your email and password/

Right  Cool

Granted, that was pretty stupid of us.
We did order a Yubikey, but never arrived.


So now it's looking like the reason for the compromise was

1) Announcing to the world you have large amounts of money on GOX

2) No Yubi Key

3) Multiple people with account access

4) Without 2-Factor Authentication


Anyone still think it was GOX?


~BCX~


Complete troll, shown below:

1) It's not possible to link the identity on this forum ("ivanc") to the MtGox account. Dare to show us how? Please provide our account user ID.
2) Yubikey: that's an additional security measure, in the meanwhile it's true we were doing without yubikey
3) unrelated, all the accesses come from one ip address, from our office in London.
4) same as 2)


Wow, you really are that stupid aren't you.

1) what needs to be explained about a possible inside theft?

2) What needs to be explained about another account holder getting sloppy with the info somewhere else?

The biggest indicator that you are simply spreading FUD is that you want blame MTGOX as loud as you can without even remotely considering it was your stupidity.

BTW, did you notice this thread was moved from the main forum without a redirection?


~BCX~





Sure, we're completely stupid. Very, very dumb (because you said so).
Thanks for not participating in this topic if you have nothing else to say, you need to spare your precious intelligence for other topics.
Much appreciated.

Jezus people, how bout trying to help somebody instead of attacking the messenger or calling them stupid when you hear something you don't like  Angry .


Citation needed.
One guy said we could have a trojan. (we don't, but anyway)
This was unrelated to the discussion, since the attacker asked for an email reset, hence the definition of "stupid".

How do you know mtgox database was compromised?

What do you think is more probable: mtgox db compromised or a trojan in your machine?

If you move such quantities of money through mtgox why do you not use 2 factor auth?

If it was a trojan on a machine, the attacker wouldn't even bother requesting for an email reset.
Please read the full message and know what you're talking about before posting stupidities.


You have ZERO room to call out posting stupidities. I certainly wouldn't announce that I was making $10K EYR transfers on this forum.

How is this related to the topic? How would you use such information? The forum doesn't even have a usable IP address.
Please respond with facts.

Can you please define who the "we" is that you keep referring to please?

It's a company account, hence "we". How does this help?
Trolling?
Totally unrelated to the topic, again.

People like you should be banned from trolling once and for all.

Why are you calling all the people in this thread trolls? Just wanted to help. It seems you are the troll after all.

You want to help by writing this one line:

"Why not call them if this was true? FUD FUD FUD FUD FUD FUD FUD FUD FUD"

That's a line of a troll, not someone here to help.
A moderator can confirm that.

Anyway, you don't have a lot of options, right now.
You can throw the IP out for investigation in the deep net, if you have any contact there.
Or you can wait for monday, regain access to your account, and depending on the damage, decide wether it's worth trying to file a complaint or not.
Oh, and before you receive your yubikey, at least go for google auth, as it will stop most script kiddies brutally.

Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it since it's the first post of this kind.

Hey Ivan,

Been waiting for 10 days now for a SEPA withdrawal, the withdrawal status is "confirmed".
Amount is 10,000 EUR.

Posting things like this paint a hug red flag on you.

~BCX~

Doesn't reveal anything about the account, how would you use such information?
Please provide facts this time, not just trolls.

Has MtGox made any announcement yet?
So far it's just your word.

That's true, i might be overly dramatic and it might be a false alert.
We are trying to get advice from here, since MtGox support is off for the weekend.

Look at your post title, overly dramatic.

How do you know that MTGOX was compromised?

How do you know it was more than one account?

More than likely you or your company's carelessness combined with the fact you blatantly talk about $10,000 EUR MTGOX transfers in several previous post which is STUPID.

~BCX~

No one knows which account is concerned by this. You won't be able to link it to the forum identity.
So how is this "STUPID"?
Please explain, otherwise you're just trolling, like your other posts.

Spreading FUD you are.

Please provide factual information about what is FUD in my message. Trolling is frowned upon on this forum.

Just because you're supposedly detailed doesn't make it factual.

Why are you the only person so far supposedly attacked?

Look at your post headline, overly dramatic with zero proof that "accounts" were compromised.

Maybe yours because you're careless or make yourself a target, that doesn't make it GOX fault now does it?

~BCX~

Since you edit your posts after they have been replied to (a common trollish behavior), I reply to your edited post:

What make you say we're careless and make ourself a target?
Complete troll.
How come you don't discuss the arguments, but relying on insulting the messenger?

We have no access to our account at the moment. Someone else must have some access.
Are you claiming this is a false story? I will be providing identification information on this forum once we get some reply from MtGox.
How do you know we're the only compromised account? This happened 2 hours ago.
What are you trying to prove here?
