he got me and i clicked, but 0 btc on the exchange so, nothing to worry this is why i keep all my bitcoin on my wallet
forum should add a notification of a msg that it sent to multiple people(don't know if this is possible)
Change your password on BTC-e and also change it on any other websites that you are using the same password on as he will likely start looking for your other accounts that share the same PW.

i clicked on the phishing link, but i have nothing on btc-e so it's ok how to recover my account now?
Change your password ASAP! If any other account's on other websites use the same password, change those as well.

Your wallet is full of "dust" transaction's, which are really small payment amounts, most likely from satoshidice. The fee structure means that it costs more BTC in tx fees to spend these than they are worth. This is the one of the reasons the dev's plan to make those changes regarding tx-fees & pico-transactions in 0.8.2 (you can't send 1 satoshi payments etc etc). The current way Bitcoin works is like this, if someone sends you 1 satoshi it's going to cost 0.0005BTC in fees to spend it. Everyone on the forums are freaking out about the plans to remove pico-tx's and are calling the devs all sorts of things claiming its "censorship" or that they were paid to do it, yet we can't even spend pico-transactions right now.

I don't get how people can fall for a PM sent to '(undisclosed recipients)'
The email notification doesn't say that on it.

I didnt click link but could someone explain what he has done here? what does link do when u clik it and how can we protect ourselves against this type of thing?
The link goes to a fake site that looks like BTC-e.com, when you go to login it steals your username/password. How to protect yourself? simple, when you are going to log into btc-e.com, type the address in the address bar yourself & make sure your using https. Be wary of any links sent to you full-stop, this applies everywhere online not just in the BTC world.

Your kidding right? What do you not understand about I Was HACKED. Right now im trying to put things back together.. The hacker hacked a secondary email of mine and changed the password. I've been on the phone with my email provider for 20 minutes.
I know right? I mean, if you said it, it must be true, as people never lie on the internet

Good job, I have contacted 000webhost, the site where the phishing website was hosted and requested it be take down.
The hacker nearly gained control of my email, luckily I had phone verification which is what tipped me off I was being hacked. It ringed with a verification code to reset password..
Im sorry any of those who were affected by this hopefully no one fell for it.
Why don't you PM everyone back and tell them not to click the link?

If anyone needs an escrow for any altcoin transaction (including Yacoin) I will offer escrow services for a small fee if I'm not too busy. If anyone reading this is interested then PM me.

Yep. Sounds like you were a victim of phishing. Always ensure the green bar is there when you use Gox.
Change all of your passwords ASAP!

If the guy did copy your wallet.dat, he wouldn't be able to do anything with it if it was encrypted.

Was the OP's wallet encrypted?
|
|
|
He's only returning the card because he was caught.
He was not caught, but he freaked out nonetheless. This is very suspicious, indeed. If it was me and I accidently infected OP's PC with malware that I didn't know was on my USB stick I would feel guilty for OP's loss and return the card.
