Today I received mail saying:
kpitti,
We are fixing the cases of unauthorized access to user accounts Betcoin and funds theft.
If you want to protect your account, you need to change password of your Betcoin account and make client update ....
There is a link attached to some url which smell fishy.
Are you Betcoin sending such message?
The site is down ...that e-mail sounds very fishy. They would never ask you to do that. Can betcoin comment on this?
Support is saying in their on-site chat box that those emails aren't from them and contain a virus and you shouldn't open it.
No answer yet as to why they aren't contacting players themselves to warn them or how someone was able to access their email list to scam their players.
Maybe you and the other technical wizards here didn't notice.. Those emails have your username in them which means whoever sent them has not only access to your username, but your email address.. Both unencrypted in betcoin.ag user database table..
All those backlinks go to
hxxp://141.105.69.206/dn/?e=[base64 string was here] which is the betcoin.ag server IP. Why would attackers/phishers put nothing but links to the official site in the email? Then.. if the site isn't hacked how do they have every single users email and username which, by the way, are stored with all your other data like encrypted password and likely BTC keys.
Either way betcoin.ag has been hacked. You and whoever represents the site have overwhelming evidence against you, so please do try and argue..What they tell us/admit will be 100% based on whatever they think they can get most to believe - not the truth.
They will throw a hundred dollars worth of chips out to help bury the issue with pro-betcoin comments.
The Password Change/FreeRoll announcement last week must be related right?
