[goldlyre]

Several users on BtcChina claimed today that their accounts were hacked by an online bad guy and their bitcoins were consequently withdrawn to the hacker's address other than their own. On the discussion board, the director of the exchange had confirmed the indident as true and said they would investigate into it shortly.

Just tried my btcchina account - they are not letting you change the bitcoin withdraw address previously used unless you contact the admin.
I'm assuming this is temporary safety measure given the situation

$3k stolen, sell sell sell

Honestly, this shouldn't even be newsworthy.  This shit happens all the time.
