Title: My hashnest account has been hacked but no funds/GHS were taken?
Post by: jackg on March 28, 2016, 10:02:21 PM
I found an email that said that my hashnest account had been hacked (logged in remotely).

I am unsure why they woudn't take anything after hacking. I did only have 5GHs and 200 satoshi, but they still could've taken that.

Just change your password to something more secure.. It's not worth stealing that little.
They were waiting till you had more in your account.
Why commit a crime when the charge is more than your making..

It's not like the hacker has any way of knowing how much there's in the account before cracking it.
As for why the hacker didn't take anything, I don't think you realize how little 200 satoshis is.
