It wasn't with the wallet itself, he actually found an exploit in our HTML5 Blackjack game (since corrected) and he was able to cheat the system (essentially win more money then he bet), from there he cashed out.

His receiving address is here: 1Bzett9nVZ8zSx3gHmVVHqprYCnyjCj7pS

We have a lot more information on him, like literally everything about him. But we'll hold tight on releasing that for now.

Thanks - I was about a minute late, they were just confirmed. Looks like we got hacked and our hot wallet balance was wiped out. Not a ton of money, but still pissed this happened.

So I have this guy's IP and receiving address. Does that do me any good to publicly shame him?


Oh damn, how did your account got hacked?
you were not using 2factor authentication?

and you should post his receiving address for reference purpose here.

Export the private keys involved into a different client and attempt to create a double spend.  The issue is that any node which saw the first tx will reject the second one.  Bitcoin makes it intentionally difficulty to double spend. 

If the first tx should have had a fee and doesn't then it may have been blocked/rejected by nodes on the network this increases the chance the replacement can be relayed to a miner and included in a block.  The chance is still low though.
