The owner of bitvegas and bitads.net claims that bitads.net and bitvegas.com were both made insecure by a security flaw. He said no players would be affected by this exploit. After lying and saying everyone would be repaid he has decided not to re-pay me the 7.5 btc I had setting in my account.
This is what had taken place in bitvegas.
I wanted to withdraw 7.5 BTC from my account after placing bets to increase my loss from previous bets. I thought it would be easy to withdraw as I have done it quite a few times before. Bitvegas' wallet had insufficient funds so I figured I would wait for him to refill the wallet. I thought no problem. I waited about two days to log back in and got a huge surprise, it was missing leaving me with questions without any answers. I know that no one could have withdrawn it due to the wallet having insufficient funds. So, someone had hacked into his minecraft server and gambled my money because the hacker couldn't withdraw because of having insufficient funds in the admin's wallet.
A few days after this incident he boldly admits that someone had access to all of the user's accounts.
Hello Reddit! Yesterday bitvegas (A Bitcoin Minecraft casino) had a player use an exploit in craftbukkit (The back-bone of Minecraft plugins) to be able to log in as other players, send there money to another account, and withdraw.
This exploit was by using a spoofed login packet. The CraftBukkit team has since updated there code, although I was unable to respond quick enough to this as I was offline.
The hacker was smart enough to notice there was not enough BTC in the wallet to withdraw my 7.5btc so he boldly gambled it and lost. According to a reddit posted by the site's admin, he said he would pay back all players. He refuses to pay any of it. I have all his information and have submitted it to further investigate him and all of his activities online and offline.
I have suspicion to believe he may have taken it himself.
Another hack he boldly admits was with a user named em202020. He stole 40 BTC from the wallet of bitvegas. After I had mentioned this, he said no player ever had access to minecraft's server. What do you know a few days after my BTC was stolen he admitted a user using CraftBukkit had access into his server.
Bitads.net, another one of his sites was also hacked into
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=328887.0Probably this is a scheme pretending to repay his users by saying he will repay all of them and not actually repaying them. He is pretending these are hacks and he is actually the culprit. He says it was my fault about my password but this is not the case here.
