Why this news should be related with bitcointalk? However it is only a question of social engineering and there is not a real solution for this type of problem.... the human (employee) is the problem.

It's not related. The forum focuses on something else entirely, than Bitcointalk, aside from having a lower number of members and posts.
OP you won't believe how common hacks are. I doubt that they were infiltrated in the exact same way as Bitcointalk. Statistically it's impossible. Someone could have used social engineering as well, but it doesn't mean that they've used the exact same method of gaining information/acess.
