242  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / How can I get ahold of MagicalTux, or anyone with authority at MtGox. on: July 03, 2011, 03:02:32 AM
Please, someone tell me how. I've tried to contact them numerous times and they aren't responding.

If someone can tell me how I can contact him on IRC (or anywhere else) I would gladly appreciate it.
243  Economy / Trading Discussion / MtGox isn't responding to my ticket? on: July 02, 2011, 11:09:44 PM
BEFORE MtGox fixed the security issues, someone hacked my account and stole all my money. I have contacted MtGox multiple times about the issue and they haven't responded once. Even on the MtGox website they say they are reading and responding to every issue.

Anyone else had their money stolen? How did you resolve the problem? If you did

245  Economy / Goods / Asus 5850 $180 shipped (excellent condition) on: June 29, 2011, 04:04:59 AM
I have a non-reference Asus 5850, shipped to any US48 state for $180 shipped.
I will accept payment by PayPal or Dwolla.

It ships with all original accessories and the original box.

The card is in excellent condition. I have to sell it because I have upgraded my rig to water cooling and cannot acommadate this card in my case.

It can do 900 core at stock volts. Yes, it does have voltage tweaking.

Capable of pushing 350 MH/s at 900 core.

PM me with questions or post them in this thread

Guys, stop telling me I need to change my password. For anything important, I never reuse a password from a different site. I had a secure alphanumeric password as well. My account was COMPROMISED, like a lot of other users here.

Let me reemphasize that I am not the only one affected. Please read the entire thread and see the link that someone posted earlier.

MtGox on the issue, addressing the security hole:
247  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I was scammed by MtGox. on: June 17, 2011, 10:19:16 PM
My password was an alphanumeric sequence. There were no dictionary words and it would take a very long time to brute-force my account.
An alphanumeric sequence like abcd1234?  That would be one of the first ten passwords a brute force attacker will try.  There are many such sequences in top 100 lists of common passwords.  It would generally take much shorter time to bruteforce a sequence than a rarely used dictionary word.

My four rules of passwords are:
  • Never base your password on dictionary words or sequences of any kind, including keyboard sequences, periodic table, etc.
  • Use at least three of the categories capital letters, normal letters, numbers and special characters.
  • If your password contain one capital letter, don't place it first.
  • If your password contains only one number (one or more digits) or special character, don't place it last.

And remember that trivial transcribations like $ for s, 3 for e, etc, or using the characters above, below or next to a word on the keyboard, are not novel ideas.  Those ideas, and many more stupid tricks to transcribe dictionary words, are known among crackers as well.  Don't even think about words or sequences when you make a password.

No, that is not what I meant. I meant that it was a random alphanumeric sequence. I.e. 47329fdj91954fss.

My signature has nothing to do with stolen money. I could care less about TradeHill right now, the only important thing to me right now is getting my stolen money back. I haven't even used TH, and I don't plan to use any market in the future that involves depositing my coins. In the future I will always use trustworthy BitcoinExchange for a direct person-to-person exchange.

My password was an alphanumeric sequence. There were no dictionary words and it would take a very long time to brute-force my account.

You also have no proof that it wasn't me. I can show you a screenshot of my wallet, that address is not present nor is the transaction present.

Update: looks like the stealer has sold/sent the BTC to someone else.
249  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I was scammed by MtGox. on: June 17, 2011, 01:16:30 PM
Why would I lie?

I even provided a picture for proof
250  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I was scammed by MtGox. on: June 17, 2011, 03:52:59 AM
mtgox if you are reading this can you please set all withdrawal methods to have email account verification if it needs to be changed.

Just having someone grab a password(somehow) and then logging in, changing payout details and processing, isnt secure enough.

If you place email verification for whenever details change, btc address/usd withdrawal address, it will make the site double as secure as it is atm with one access authentication.

Yes please add this feature. Having email verification for every transaction would make things MUCH more secure, and I would have avoided this.

What help can we provide? There is nothing we can do.
We can't even be sure of which threads to believe or not in most cases.

I'm dead serious. 17.18 BTC was just stolen from me. I don't know who did it, but it happened, while the money was sitting in my MtGox account.
254  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I was scammed by MtGox. on: June 17, 2011, 03:33:37 AM
Just a warning to everyone to not use MtGox. Sigh, I knew I should have stuck with BitcoinExchange.

What should I tell them? I mean I swear it was stolen from me. What can they do?
255  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I was scammed by MtGox. on: June 17, 2011, 03:29:25 AM
No, I didn't. I used a secure password.
256  Economy / Trading Discussion / I was scammed by MtGox. on: June 17, 2011, 03:25:34 AM
Today, first time using MtGox. I added some BTC, started an order, and then checked back in a few hours to see that someone withdrew ALL of the BTC in my account to some address. I have no idea who this address belongs to. Here is proof.



Here is the Block Explorer for the address: http://blockexplorer.com/address/1KReFavSpHkxZqkR3aZvdz4pbhg6ZqCwhy

I have no idea how my account was accessed, but I do know that I will not be using MtGox again in the future.
257  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: MtGox Depth of Market and Selling Question on: June 17, 2011, 01:26:48 AM
Ask here = Asking for USD per BTC.

Only the highest bid and lowest ask are relevant if you want to trade right now.

So if you are selling look for the highest bid, that is how much USD you get per BTC.

Right now the highest bid price is this


So if I start an order for 0.88 BTC at 16.6301 USD/BTC, it will immediately get fulfilled?
258  Economy / Trading Discussion / MtGox Depth of Market and Selling Question on: June 17, 2011, 01:18:45 AM
Ok, first time selling on MtGox, and I'm confused.

Going to the Depth of Market there is a huge list of current Ask prices and the amount of BTC they want.

So for example, there is this listing:



If I start a sell order right now, for 18.31 BTC @ 21.95 USD/BTC, will it immediately get fulfilled by this buyer?
259  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: ...and BÄM! we have hit the 17 USD mark again on: June 17, 2011, 01:17:13 AM
Lol do you really expect it to go back to $30+ USD?
