Just wanted to make you guys aware that between yesterday 4/7/2014 and today 4/8/2014 i noticed that my btc payout address had been changed without my authorization. It was changed from 16rBgvegJnDWQtakxc6ChYaUu2fozuDk47 (which has been my legitimate address since i started with hashcows) to 1GxdwuYxuoJEtzoJrxv2mQQ4344YgqUAzv (bad address that i don't recognize).
I changed my address back and did a cashout of my funds. None of my bitcoins seem to have been lost. I have already changed my password with hashcows and will look to further secure things on my end. I never wrote the password down and i used a password that i have never used on any other site. I know online security is a myth and this is not an accusation of any kind, just a heads to the other members of this community to check their payout addresses. I know this might just be an isolated incident of my password being brute forced or something, but in light of the December Hack I would prefer to be safe than sorry.Maybe nearmiss and his team can take a look internally? or maybe add another step to changing btc addreses? wemineltc 4 digit pin to make changes comes to mind.
