I also received an unauthorize access to my account just last week and I immeditely changed my password and activated my 2Fa. I suggest that you guys also do the same. I don't know how someone managed to get my email in c-cex but beware.

this is nothing new and it is not restricted to c-cex.com (not ccex). any site that you sign up at, there will be a risk that your account is attacked and someone try to hack it. i have had some attacks on by btc-e.com account and also about 6 months ago someone requested a password reset on my bitcointalk account which i saw the Email also you are posting in the wrong board!

This is not the first time that c-cex has been got attacked or its users got attacked, This is happening lot of times. The main reason is that when a hacker gets some email ids he tries on all sites so that if any email is related to any exchange he can hack it and clear your account.
It is always recommended to use different passwords for all your accounts so that if any one account gets hacked the hacker should not get access to your other accounts.

It is always funny, when you see this on a exchange site, " C-CEX exchange is designed for security and protected by state of the art security services while giving you the option to secure your account through the use of two-factor authentication " They just pass the ball to you, in an event where there might be a hack.
We have seen so many centralized services like these fall, eg. MtGox / Bitfinex etc. etc..
Just make sure that you store small amounts at these sites, and only deposit enough for the trades that you want to do. Large amounts draws the flies. ^smile^

I just realize about the decentralized system are the best service in this time but the demand is very less. But I also happening the situation, someone is wanna for sign in into my account. That's just a slogan from c-cex for gaining a new users are interesting with their slogan.

Not only in ccex but in every website where it offers you the option to add 2FA you should always do it. Someone a long time ago request a change password through Yobit through my real email. Emails are leaked from databases and websites that sell them to people (yes I use that email to sign up at a lot of sites) , but luckily I had 2fa enabled both in my Yobit and both in my email so nothing happened.
Once you take the needed security measures nothing will happen to you in any website. Of course it can happen something if the website get hacked or goes offline.

Expect attacks when there's money involved. Hackers would hack those that have no 2FA in their accounts and have a very easy password. Change your password into something else and then use 2FA. There should be no problem afterwards. I don't think hackers would hack your phone specifically just to get your 2FA. If they were to do something like that, they'll do it in an account of a whale, not yours.

You have a point here, and always be aware of this. Just be aware always and much better to tie-up you account to your mobile so that you will receieve SMS when someone try to login or recover your password. Use strong password also,one that is not common and easy to guess.

just enable 2 factor authentication on any site that has money involved and is offering such additional security layer and you will be fine as long as there is no workaround for the 2FA which is always the case in good sites.

I don't leave a lot of money in my exchanges wallets, because all exchanges might be exposed or hacked like what happened to Bitfinex, in case of account hacking, C-cex has 2FA which is the best feature to secure your account, if you have 2FA enabled, your balances are protected.

I don't know how someone managed to get my email in c-cex but beware. i also experience that kind of situation, and luckily breacher get in on my account so same as you i change may password immediately so i won't get compromised if the attacker will come and strike again, so this issue should be must be carefull by all of traders since they can be compromised by this kind of act they should enable their 2fa so they can make sure that their account is on safe status and also we shouldn't click any unknown link since it maybe contains some phising,virus or anything that can steal our account.

Question is: where attackers get a access to emails c-cex users used to register? The only thing I could think of is that their database was somehow compromised and email list is now leaked. But I doubt that c-cex staff will confirm that. The same happened to bitcointalk once, and someone is still sending spam mails with dark market offers to my inbox.

People aren't dumb, they know and feel that something isn't right with an exchange. Just look at what happened with Bitfinex. Before the hack the exchange has gone down several times which made me very much feel that something is horribly wrong. And not long after that the exchange in question stated that it lost $65,000,000 worth of Bitcoin due to a hack. Of course it's arguable whether or not the exchange got really hacked, but it's not something new anymore as people know the signs now.

I am also getting lots of bitcoin doubler, hyip and darknet based site spam links to my email too however i don't use my personal email in some random sites to register so preety protected from getting scammed in my personal account. But talking about c-cex, there is no way to find out how those attackers got access to email ids and there is no any clue that the staff of them, actually leak those emails, i think users need to try to protect themselves by not using same email password combination in all sites they register and use of long, special character mixed passwords in every site specially in exchangers, wallets etc is always adviced.

I do experience the same thing too on the situation of OP where theres a bruteforce trying to log-in on my ccex account which leads to my curiosity on how those people could able to get my email , luckily they dont have acces to my email though. 2fa is a must if you like to protect your bitcoin.

if you use the same email and password on other sites? or install a program that is not safe So far I have not encountered any issues with some of my accounts I usually use the same email on a site that is not important but to accounts that have value for money I use a different email with security 2FA
