Title: This scared the hell out of me [Mt.Gox] Notification: Trade(s) Executed
Post by: Andrew Bitcoiner on September 06, 2011, 04:08:46 PM
Dear xxxx,

There has been new activity on your Mt.Gox account.

A summary of your recent trade(s) is provided below.

Trade Details


I noticed this in my inbox today.  I knew I don't have any orders placed and without thinking it through thought I was hacked despite my yubikey.  I rushed to my mtgox account to see in fact no trades have been made and checking the email again it was a history of previous trades.  I think the title of the message should be different MagicalTux  :o  Maybe "Previous Week/Month Trade History"?

Always gets me too. I forget I paid someone out of there and it doesn't say the amount in the email so I'm like, wtf, gotta check this out. Oh right 1.25 coin.

I just got startled by one of those, too, until I looked at the dates of the transactions. I agree that a different message subject would be nice.

The first one of those emails is taking back all your account history since we enabled trade notification setting again.

We were busy with many things and unfortunately trade notification were taken out of the top of the todo list for a while. It's now back, and working. That first email contained all your trades until now, next ones will be sent every 10 minutes or so.

I got this too this morning and it scared me pretty bad despite also having a Yubikey.
