Poswallet.com security breach

[Mrbates]

Hello everyone just providing a PSA as of around an hour ago this announcement was made on the poswallet dashboard:

We had a malicious intrusion into at least one wallet server. All withdrawals are pending manual review until we verify that the wallets are secure.

Initial wallet balance survey shows 9.3 BTC worth of coins have been stolen. We are already in contact with the authorities with respect to this and are providing all server information that we have.

We suggest withdrawing your coins - please understand there will be delay while we manually process.
 Your PoS Wallets


Thanks and good luck.

Sounds like a big blow to poswallet. I checked the site after I saw this... I think the worst "PR" for a wallet is to announce that they were hacked. I read more about them, and in fact they are launching new versions with Ledger promotions. And now asking everyone to withdraw all coins.

9.8 BTC is a lot but for wallet and exchange is nothing. Now everyone will withdraw and panic.

Yeah well, they'll withdraw until they hit the missing balance I guess :/

And yes the posw2.0 thing has been coming since the end of june..
