Title: Account Compromised
Post by: clickme on June 22, 2011, 07:26:59 AM
HI this morning noticed on my windows gadget that my slushpool balance was way lower then it was last night.  When I logged in I noticed that the ticks to email transactions have been disabled and autopayments have been set to 0.1 and also my wallet address changed.  Looked into payout history and there was a payment done to the new wallet address.  I didn't have much in my account but look like some guy lost 10 coins http://blockexplorer.com/address/12kCzPRnzZAPSYYxauV2NXjXpeKoCkuZwE

Just thought I let everybody know so that they can make sure their accounts is safe.

Where there is money there will be people stealing it.  See there continues to go coins into that wallet.
