Can someone help me with my MTGOX USD Withdrawal issue? On Sept 25th, I tried to withdraw my USD into my bank account. When I checked the account transaction history, the equivalent dollar amount was converted into BTC and sent an address. So lets say I wanted to withdraw the USD$500 into my bank account, when I performed the transaction, $500 worth of BTC was purchased and sent to an BTC address instead??

To this date I still have not received the deposit...anyone know what is going on?

Sounds to me like your mtgox account was hacked. By that, I mean you gave away your password to someone else and they took your money/BTC. Withdrawals to bank dont covert to BTC.

Its confirmed, I just lost 8 BTC through the MotherF**** MTGOX MY USD$ somehow mysteriously converted to BTC and transferred to an unknown address when I tried to withdraw to my bank account. THe odd thing is I even got a email notification saying that I logged into my account to initiate the transfer.

You might want to try and scan your system for any infections, a virus could in theory hijack your login session and when you try to send yourself the money it malforms the request and sends its owner BTC instead, that is indeed quite devious if it's the case.
