Title: Case against Stocks.exchange. How they stole my coins Post by: brander on February 05, 2018, 01:58:02 PM I have an account on Stocks.Exchange. I was trading there with success. Not having any problems with deposits, trading and withdrawals. Until the 22 of January. My account was locked out. 2FA was enabled on my account and I did not enable it. So I tried to contact support. That was a challenge, since you can’t fill in a support ticked without an account. So after spamming on twitter and on the business email I finally had a response. "Please send an email to support@stocks.exchange" Nice a reaction, so i send an email. What then happened was a bit of fun and unique, that would be the right word.
So here is the story of how "the solving of my account" was going. 22 jan 2018: I Noticed that my account was enabled with 2FA. On twitter there was a message on how to fix it. No success for me 23 jan 2018: Just in case i reset my password. I received an email with the link, and i successfully reset my password 29 jan 2018: First response from the business mail address: Code: go to support@stocks.exchange 29 jan 2018: And after that i had a reply from sasha: Code: Hello, it can enable someone else who had access to your account. If you had enabled 2af before you won't have such problem. 30 jan 2018: Reply from sasha: Code: Ok, please, give answers to these questions: 30 jan 2018: Reply from sasha: Code: Some information doesn't match. Do you remember your withdrawals? 31 jan 2018: Reply from sasha: Code: hello, I saw your email and you aver that your last withdrawal was 2018-01-06 19:18:36 31 jan 2018: reply from sasha: Code: First of all read TERMS OF USE cause we are not responsible for that! 01 feb 2018: Code: Hello Sasha, 01 feb 2018: Reply from sasha: Code: You can't confirm your account. Information that you gave does not match. Your were able to enable 2fa when you create account. 5 feb 2018: I did a test, reset my password again. That’s weird i received an email. So mail is working. Long story short i still dont have access to my account. And i made a promise to sasha. Here is the forum post. They stole my coins. PS: My login, email and twitter account are all the same username. Title: Re: Case against Stocks.exchange.

Use 2FA and sleap well ;) Well that is the whole problem. I did not get hacked. They dont have proof that I am hacked. They cant profide me with the nessesarry information. I except that i dont use the 2fa. But there are still some coins on my account. And I want them back. So why not enabble my account. That was the easiest way. Title: Re: Case against Stocks.exchange.

The site is stack exchange not stock exchange. Dude you serious ? lol You're a solidity developer and you didn't recognise the difference between https://stocks.exchange/login and https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/ ? One is an exchange ,later is a sub-division of stack-overflow community.Its bad that people are using such a great community name to smash the scam. Moreover,if you think of it,how would one get scammed on stack-exchange ? :-\ OP - When people suggest to not store coins on exchanges,you don't follow it.Start following. Title: Re: Case against Stocks.exchange. How they stole my coins Post by: tonedepear on April 03, 2018, 01:36:03 PM Interesting. I've had a s.e account for a few moths, never any balance left in, then over the easter weekend I left 5 dero in there (because dero withdrawls are suspended) and lo, I try to log in this morning and find that 2fa has suddenly been enabled (I had never enabled it nor had trouble logging in before).
Trying to disable it again eventually worked after a few hours, and would you believe it, in the time I had not had access to the account, the 5 dero had been spirited away via BTC conversion and then to DOGE and withdrawn. Now, anyone arguing it's my own fault for not enabling 2fa is well within their rights, but I am *quite* confident I haven't been hacked or phished and it's a strange coincidence indeed that this never happened until suddenly I had some balance sat there for a couple of days. I have now enabled 2fa, but still. Would suggest anyone using S.E for anything at all, even tiny amounts like myself, to use 2fa from the start or risk anything that dwells in the account disappearing. FWIW the DOGE address my dero ended up in ended ...TM2j6Q. Title: Re: Case against Stocks.exchange.

Posted it on twitter. Support is not doing anything. They have stole now all my coins. It is a shame. You probably have been really stolen your account and "they" - some hackers - stolen your funds. Not "they" as the stocks exchange admins. Did you use same email/password on other websites? If yes the hacker having access to that email/password combination may have tried on other services and used to login in your place. Always use a different password for every website. It's a bit more difficult to manage and rememeber - I use a password manager for this - but it's more secure. Title: Re: Case against Stocks.exchange. How they stole my coins Post by: coinwizard_ on April 14, 2018, 09:11:10 AM The answer is in your first paragraph. 2FA was enabled and you didn't enable it. When you join an exchange, especially a low volume new exchange, you must enable 2FA otherwise you may as well just airdrop your own coins away
