I myself co-own a business that supplies an online service and when our customers need IPs of people who have bid in their auctions, we will supply that information every single time, no questions asked, and 0 murders so far. Still begs the question: what will someone do with an IP address? It's actually a useless piece of information anyway. It's already been decided in US courts that an IP address cannot be used to identify an individual person, only a household. ISPs like Comcast do hold onto IP address info for some months but will only release customer info under court order, not to individuals. |

Depending where you are I doubt the police will do much about it, But you will have proof you made a police report....
I agree they probably won't have much chance of getting OP's BTC back. But here's a chance to look in the mirror and do some soul searching about BTC. Maybe OP shouldn't have put so much in BTC that it hurts to lose it. After all we're in a Wild West phase of BTC's development. We're seeing scalability problems already from satoshidice for instance. When you suffer a loss like this don't expect a bail-out. I know it seems like everyone expects to get a check every time something bad happens to them. But like I said it's the Wild West. |

If the account owner did the transaction himself, there is no reason not to share the IP (i.e. his own) from which the withdrawal was issued.
If someone else did, that's a very obvious reason (or even duty) to share the IP to the actual account owner.
They won't and they shouldn't. Think about it. What would you do with someone's IP address if you had it? Suppose they told you the IP address and you somehowtracked down the perpetrator and killed him. Think of the liability that opens Gox (or any other business) up to. Leave law enforcement to the police. |

Do what they suggested and file a police report. Gox won't tell you the perpetrator's IP address or anything else. They'll only divulge that with a court order or law enforcement request. It's your only hope.
Unless you have a really compelling reason to use them, you should avoid using exchanges.

Perhaps OP will spontaneously combust or choke on someone else's vomit.  |

yes 3hours 23 min from this post, and i haven't set up backup pools as i haven't learned that yet! oooppss  just learned it using phoenix miner. Kinda tedious to do on guiminer. Ya dood use cgminer. You can easily setup automatic failover. I'm not using cgminer.. the forum link one has a keylogger. Anybody have a sourceforge link? that is clean? The virus alert is a false positive. Just ignore it. It's a side effect of the tools that the author used to compile the program for windows. |

Does MtRed ever say what they made, compared to what they paid out?
That's the thing about PPS... it can be good for the miner, but if the pool operator has a long enough string of bad luck, then he's screwed. The pool operator is gambling against the long-term odds.

BTCGuild recently commented on this.Some months he makes money some he loses. |

(though is there any pool that charges 10%?)
DeepBit PPS charges 10% and BTCGuild charges 8%. They're the highest I know of. BTCGuild is 5% |

When was EMC down? I did not get any notifications... was the website down or the pool server?
Reading several threads, it almost seems as if it were only limited to some people, leading me to believe there was a backbone router somewhere that might have went tits up.
At work we use the term "Tango Uniform" so as to not offend the ladies. |

Using exchanges defeats the core philosophy of BTC. Buy and sell goods and services with BTC only and don't convert to fiat.

Dood ditch the tinfoil hat. It's script kiddies, nothing more.
Script kiddies have better things to do with slave machines than DDOS bitcoin. The only "better" thing script kiddies have to do between DDOSing is jacking off in front of 4chan in their mom's basement. |

For BTCGuild point your miner to port 80 instead of 8332. I'm back to mining there now.

I think "IT" is happening, If this takes off the whole government\political system will fail, So they attack now, I also think it explains most of the unknown portion of pie, and yes i am a conspiracy theorist.

It's like having $20 bills with cocaine residue on them.
There's no such thing as dirty money. If MtGox are being dicks about it don't use exchanges. Keep your BTC to yourself and spend them directly.
