Title: Bitads accounts hacked for everybody?
Post by: mindfulmojo on November 09, 2013, 07:30:45 AM

Hello all...

I'm not sure where to post this... and come here the most. Soooo....

My bitads account was drained, I thought it was because my password was too simple. But I did an bitcoin address look up:

https://blockchain.info/address/12yJiutWoEutrTTyXf4t5UYNjZujFTwsNm

It looks like they got me more than me...?  :-[

Is there a bitcoin 911 number or something? For all I know, it's still on going... I contacted different admins that I know, but couldn't get a hold of bitvegas...  :(

Looks like it... I just talked to the landofbitcoin admin. His account was drained.

Edit:

Bitvegas is now aware of the problem and is taking care of it...  :)

Hey everyone. The total hacked # of bitcoins was only 1.77195 sent to this address: 12yJiutWoEutrTTyXf4t5UYNjZujFTwsNm

We will have no problem to reimburse this amount to the accounts that are affected.

We are looking into the problem now to fix this for the future. Withdrawals are temporarily disabled to stop any future attacks.
