MtGox Collapsing (and taking bitcoin down with them?)

[Unacceptable]

Has anyone hacked Mtgox?? My account got cleaned out

How do I go about getting help with this.I emailed them just now.So,I'm waiting for a response,but maybe you guys know a faster way to results.

This sucks  

Another one? Did you happen to use an insecure password, OR did you happen to use the same password on both Bitcoinica and MtGox?

Repeat after me: The value of the Yubikey is greater than the loss of all my funds!

Nope,my PW is different on any & all accounts.I never had a Bitcoinia account,thank god.None of my PW's have been changed either,soo............

Did you ever log on via any kind of unsecured network, and have you verified that your system is malware-free?

[Unacceptable]

Nope,I only login from my main PC & scan my PC regularly.

Edit:

Well I'm SOL,I thought so:

Thank you for your inquiry. We would recommend you to change your password as soon as possible. Unfortunately, bitcoin transactions are irreversible and we can not refund any amount of the stolen funds. As a business if Mt.Gox were to offer you a cash or bitcoin refund in compensation of this extremely unfortunate event, there would be a large increase in the number of hacking attempts to capitalize upon the possibility of financial reward.

As a further remedy, if you wish to retrieve your funds, we ask that you file a police report for the stolen goods. It is preferable for the police to inspect your computer, but not necessary. Once this investigation has occurred and a copy of the police report issued, please send a copy of it along with a notarized copy of your passport or Government issued photo ID to Mt.Gox and have the police contact us so that we can cooperate with their investigation by providing any requested information.

Please let us know how you wish to proceed, and again we apologize for the frustration and inconvenience caused.

Like the police can help,now THATS FUNNY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've got the IP & a wallet address the coins went to,anyone willing (or know how to) to do some detective work?? Not sure how much I could pay,but we can work something out.

Oh well,I'll earn more & keep them well hidden.

Well, Goat recently got his 400 BTC, so you can start there.

[Unacceptable]

I just don't understand how this happened

I scanned my pc with several AV's & nothing,my email isn't compromised(dosen't appear to be).

If my PC was hacked they would've gotten my wallet too,if my email was hacked they would've gotten my pool info & coins from there too.

I'm SOOO confused............

The only thing I can think of is MTgox security is freakin lame.

Actually this is quite reasonable position. I would do the same in mtgox's position.

Did you click on any links in emails from MtGox?

EDIT:  Also, check your browser history for any sites with "mtgox" in it, and see what the base domain of each is (everything before .com).

They never have links in thier emails so no.rjk said my PW was weak,so I guess thats why.

Heres the info on the trade,I changed my PW & will no longer keep ANY coins or cash in there ever:

There are a bunch of peeps targeting LR exchangers that are also looking at BTC atm www.paygold.com for example used to be full of crap (rootkits and funny exploits). They used a modified version of the TDSS rootkit I was stupid and went to buy some LR while working on a miner  this shit spread over most of my local network fairly quickly and the clean up was a bitch. One nice little utility that worked well was http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 I got off cheaply as they only managed to stick on that addy switcher trojan on one box so it cost me 0.83btc.

However the whole mess was down to me being stupid. And trying to use an unhardened miner to buy some LR

If accounts in MtGox could be enabled so that a PGP-signed message was required to do a withdrawal, MtGox would conclusively be able to prove that any withdraw request was signed.  It is a pity no exchange does this, the only place we have iron-clad security like this is on a chat bot.

The first exchange to bring this out would for sure get a decent % of my business

Or at least support bitcoin address signatures. On OTC, Gribble already supports authenticating by using this feature of the Bitcoin software.

I can't use $bitcoind gethelp as I'm behind a heavily firewalled connection on a heavily restricted machine...
 but I'd like to know more about that...
