Attention users of primedice!!
I just created a new account with primedice and made a deposit. As I was playing, the BTC got withdrawn all of a sudden. It's either someone from the primedice team or a hacker who got hold of their database. Did anyone face this issue ?

I think the most common source of all account compromises are reusing passwords (and not using password managers in general). Was your password you used unique to the site? Or something someone could look up on leakedsource.com

Check out gamblingsitefinder.com for a decent list/rankings of crypto casinos. Note: I have no affiliation or interest in it, and don't even agree with all the rankings ... but it's the only uncorrupted review site I'm aware of.

Did you contact their support? you know there are IP records for withdraw and deposits as well for registering and if you are telling the truth then it should be easy to investigate, you should also move this thread to gambling discussion. a few screen shots of deposit page and withdraw page is good as well.

there can be many possibilites why most common are: 1.low password difficulty,some passwords can be bruteforced in under 1 hour 2.your machine is infected 3.you clicked links in chat or downloaded a script,"hash cracker" or a "100% winning script" 4.you gave your API to somebody else it is not the first time I hear stories like that,coins just disappear from accounts in 99.999% of the cases it is the user who is at fault also if you bet high amounts of money,use 2fa maybe you can check the tx and trace the thief,ask support for his ip hash and session details...but I doubt you will get your money back

Even if an attacker did get their hands on Primedice's database, they wouldn't have access to your credentials. That assumes that Primedice properly stores user credentials and you used a strong password, of course. Apart from what RHavar already offered, another possibility to consider is that your entire computer may be compromised by malware. Malware specifically targeting Bitcoin gambling sites is not unheard of and if that is indeed the case it doesn't matter how unique your password is. In your shoes my first step would be to ensure that your computer is trustworthy.

I use a linux machine and I'm a developer myself. So, its highly unlikely that my machine is compromised. The password is quite strong. Are you sure its easy to investigate ? I've contacted their support already. Hoping to hear from them sooner than later.

I'm using PrimeDice almost since their beginning and I have never had such issues. Once I wasn't visiting the site for 3 months and when I logged in afterwards my money were still on my balance there. I've heard stories about people losing access to their accounts, but I have never heard that money were disappearing when someone was playing on the site. Is it even possible to log in to PrimeDice from different places simultaneously?

Why if it's not? I mean it happened to me aswell and ONLY on PD. I'm not accusing them of course because I have 0 formal proof. But neither you have when you say user is at fault. What if PD is actually taking the funds from time to time, making everyone believe that it's user fault? Again that's not an accusation! It might have been just me and every user to whom it happened that had a technical issue or a virus or... Something. But in the same way it could have been PD ^^ The only thing I know is that I stopped playing here and it never happened anywhere else...

Same here (though I'm not a developper ^^) If my machine is compromised... Well that's a poor virus because it infected ONLY PD

Someone recently lose his Bitcoin too but not in primedice but in rollin.io he was using seuntjie bot then suddenly all his bitcoin was withdrawn to an unknown address. this is the link where he opened that topic. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=307425.1780My guess is malware since both the person just created an account in the dice site and passwords are both unique. Or try to check your emails they might have an access to your email because sometimes in bitcoin world we only use 1 email address.

I think Seuntjie bot site was compromised today and i hope it is recovered now. To the OP prime dice is not compromised but you might have used an infected script .Sorry to hear about your loss.

No scripts used whatsoever!! Just got a reply from their team saying that there is nothing they can do about it. If multiple users are effected and only on PD, it has to be something with their weak security or a loophole. Fortunately for me, it was just 55$ but who's to be blamed if someone loses big money ? They were so casual in replying to me saying that my account may have been compromised. How can the account be compromised within 10 minutes of creating it I wonder!! NEVER Primedice again!!

the only thing i can think of here is your device have some malware or virus to steal your passwords once you typed it, i have a primedice account which i don't use often, maybe i just visit it once or twice a month and my balance there don't just vanished or something, everytime i logged in i can still see my balance in the account, never had any problem.

The exact same thing happened to me, but the blame was put on me. Why?
They said "you shouldn't deposit 10> btc all at once !-!!-!!-!-!-!-!!!-" but why not, if the site claims it's secure? I was using a clean machine and never used any scripts. This happened back in may or something, so I've given up hope that anyone going to give me any attention.
Let's hope you get your money back though.

If I'm not the wrong primedice has provided a 2fa function to secure our accounts so we should use it and if we don't want that account again can delete it easily. If we don't use security functions which site provided then, we can't blame them for our losses in this case.

At first glance Op's case is very similar to this problem https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1488696.0 Someone deposited 13 BTC and the money never showed as PD's balance. AFAIK in the end PrimeDice said it is entirely user's fault too.

Not my first primedice account. Created multiple ones in the last one month. Could've easily been the other accounts too if my computer was infected I suppose.
