Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

I know how it happened, it's related to an email address that was compromised.

My posting is just an FYI, I figure I'm out the twelve bucks  Wink

Use two factor auth like GA next time in your MTGox account to prevent losing coins from compromised email addresses and/or passwords.
