Title: Carful when hitting refresh page in firefox, on Bitstamp
Post by: Vindihaaret on April 03, 2014, 03:56:18 PM
Don know if this is old news, as I am rather fresh in the game. This happened to me, i was lucky as it was with profit.
I was in the buy/sell page on Bitstamp and had several tabs open in Firefox, switching back and forwards. Jumping back to Bistamp, then Firefox told me to resend information to page. I pressed OK, and suddenly it put all my btc on instant sell order. Emptying my wallet.... :(
This was not my intention. Maybe this was the same that happened to the person on btc-e some time ago ? Anyways, just a heads up.

Thanks for a warning but this seems strange. Maybe you did open some suspicious  web page in those tabs?
