Cryptopia users in Cryptopia (New Zealand) were targeted by hacker attacks. From the users of the exchange, mass complaints about repeated attempts to break into private offices began to arrive. Account holders assume that criminals were able to access the list of e-mails to which user accounts are registered, and, possibly, steal passwords to them. According to the reports of the victims, attempts to log into their accounts have been performed from the IP addresses of the Russian Federation, Ukraine and the Czech Republic. Users who were more enterprising and protected their accounts using two-factor authentication, were not harmed.

Is there any reliable source for this information. This forum has already a large load of messages with FUD, and I am not saying this is FUD, but it is not documented at all.

That is more reason accounts need to be protected with 2FA. There have been several attempts to hack so many accounts other other exchanges as well, but accounts locked with 2FA were protected. So many people these days, most especially those having accounts with funds should have learnt their lessons from different news around, most especially the news of hacking of accounts.
Link will also be appreciated please, so as to hold unto the truth.

Just want to know the source of this information. I've tried to log in my account to see if there's a news but I can't find it. If this is real, I will immediately pull-out all of my coins there.

I have not heard this news but I think cryptopia is vulnerable to hacking attacks, I would not hold coins in cryptopia. If this exchange will be target I don't think it can compete against hackers.

Several users have posted on Cryptopia subreddit that they are getting emails of failed log in attempt from a different IP. Those users are thinking that Cryptopia was hacked, but the community manager/mod assured that there has been no security breach nor hack within their system.

Enabling 2FA really helps in this kind of situation. Secure your account.

For those who are looking for source, just go : https://www.reddit.com/r/Cryptopia/
For the specific link of the community manager's post : Failed login attempt? Check haveibeenpwned.com

Cryptopia exchange uses PIN validation not 2FA(Google Authenticator or sms) validation. Comparing to other popular exchanges (Binance, Bittrex, Kucoin..etc) seems cryptopia exchange security is not that strong. Also cryptopia very popular among pumpers which I really don't like.

I am a regular user of cryptopia exchange and need to write down Pin Code in term of pin validation so that I can access my account. I've notified a couple of times in the last few weeks, A failed logon attempt was detected from the following IP address: xxxxxxxxx but I didn't know that how crucial it will be as mentioned above.

Hi, kindly provide an article regarding it, as many news happening right now, we must be vigilant in providing information, as many right now are spreading rumors with no actual basis, which sometimes affect the market if these rumors were disseminate in many platforms.

We must always be vigilant as crypto industry, is in a wild ride.

Thanks for the information. Everyone should be careful and use 2FA for sure. Do not use the same password for more than 2 accounts. Don't hold your coins in any exchange websites. Hold it in your secured wallet and pay gas fee to transfer to exchanges. It's way safer.  Wink

This is bad news. Cryptopia and all exchanges should try to protect their customers using the maximum security measures, because unfortunately this is a sector that really like hackers

Oh, I also received a letter today that somebody wanted to enter my exchange cabinet, but Cryptopia blocked this possibility. I'm Ukraine.

I'm very sorry for this exchange and I'm very sorry for those who on this exchange had anything, because I heard that this exchange was hacked and now they break into accounts on these exchanges. I think that they still did not try very hard to get out of hacker attacks.

I got an email today that someone was trying to access my Cryptopia account and Cryptopia locked it.  I looked up the IP and it was in South Korea.  Thank goodness for 2 factor level security...

You believe that someone will be using real ip adress in process of hacking exchange:) ?  I think it can be any country:) and always use 2fa and check adress to avoid fising:)
