Sorry to hear that. How did the hacker get a hold of your e-mail account?

I put red trust on the account, hopefully this will render it useless until it can be returned to you.

Edit: looks like you're gonna have to wait 7 days: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5084632

Sorry to hear that. How did the hacker get a hold of your e-mail account?

that is the strange part. no other account of mine were hacked so it can not be any kind of malware or anything and i don't use this Email often anyways so it couldn't be a password leak by something like a keylogger! the password itself was 25 characters long with mixed numbers, symbols, hi/lo case so it is not something you guess either!
It was a Yahoo mail so it must be their fault Cheesy

looks like you're gonna have to wait 7 days

this change was implemented today. i think i am literary the first one affected by it  Cry

... and the wait begins. will lock this for now.
