First signed up with pickaxe for coinye west. I didn't have any coinye coins stolen but that was the first pool I signed up with. The pool didn't work for a few hours after launch so I switched pools. Yesterday I signed up at coin army's pool for usde. I reused the username and pass that I did for pickaxe coinye west pool. I know I shouldnt have, but with so many pools it's hard not to resuse sometimes. That was the only other time I reused those credentials. My PC is not infected, I know it's not coin army. I know my info was not brute forced. There was no sqli breach. It was pick axe pool owners plain and simple. They changed my withdraw account on coin army's usde pool and stole 3,815 usde from me. Here is the lamers usde address GcAxeAgBnDgaDnG18r4F2WgmRiNGtGBDF4. Notice the Axe vanity address to? Just noticed that when I posted it, lol.

So sorry to hear that mate. That's why I recommend Lastpass. I'm generating genuine password for every pool. At least you can use different PIN, just for safety.
Thank you for the warning.
