Reason being, I stumbled across a website that looked like cex.io, which was cex-io.com.
Funny enough you could log on via this fake site. Unfortunately I was one of those unlucky souls. I didn't know, I just typed in cex in google and it came up on top.
I consulted with Cex.io support and they replied:

Thank you for your notification.
I also asked them to make a global announcement about this, but they haven't done it yet, nor willing to.
This could be an inside job or I could be wrong, either way it pissed me off.
Take care peeps, and change your password!
