Well,

I'm starting to make really big worries about bitfinex. I want to say from the very first moment that I am a person who is having a obsesion on security, 2fa and stuff. On fridays I'm trading at least 10-15 btc on bitfinex and now I am worried. There is anyone on this forum who had same problems?

One really has to be an idiot to trust a less credible site like bitfinex which has proven their security/inside jobs in the past.Everything else is secondary including your problems.If they can pretend to have been hacked before,this is pretty much expected.Be happy you didn't lose any bitcoins yet.Even if you do,don't be surprised because they warned ya in the most simplest way possible.

I know about their problems but I never had this kind of problems, also it just happened on localbitcoins too. I just withdraw all my coins from all websites, this is scary already.

Then the security problem is at your end. You must have been compromised somehow or they socially engineered your phone and email access. Wipe your machines, reset your accounts and start again. I hope you didn't withdraw your coins to the same machine you use for internet access.

If you have security concerns in general you're certifiably mental to be on Bitfinex in the first place. If they're not competent enough to prevent the exodus of tens of thousands of coins, don't expect them to be any more careful with your coins.

Here is another issue happened in the Turkish forum. Also hacked while his 2FA is on but the exchange is Bittrex this time. Somebody managed to exploit the 2FA system it seems. That means we are all in danger now with the exchanges.

You can google translate the page, he says he is robbed while his 2FA was functioning. This not gon b gud.

This sounds scary.
I still think that this may be some other mistake, but I'll start moving my "unsafe" funds to local wallets. Just to be sure.
It may be his e-mail that was hacked. Maybe yahoo mail with old password?

I'm absolutely sure these are not my logins.

I have my keys well protected and 2fa still enabled.

I would be certainly worried about this situation:

1. Are you sure that those are not your log ins? You don't use VPN or any sort etc?
2. If you still want to use Bitfinex: Enable 2FA, change your password ASAP.
3. You might be one of the users which data leaked in recent CloudFlare backdoor, have you changed your password since that time?

So as i understand from your message, you didn't log in in those hours but someone else did and you had 2FA on while these incidents were happening. Am i right?

One question though:

Why teh hell are you still trading on Finex after all those shit they got in?

They suspended deposits/withdrawals, some people had problems with btc withdrawals too. Isn't that a clear sign of a massive problem? Isn't that enough for you to stay away?

Whatever you get from this point, you deserve it.

Did you log in at those hours?
If you did, there may be that your IP is not geo-located correctly and there's nothing to worry. You can even check your IP (surf to https://www.whatismyip.com/) and compare.
If you didn't, you should discuss with their support, really.

PS. I don't use Bitfinex, but these rules apply in many places, including the exchanges I actually use.

i don't understand your problem to be honest!
did you have 2FA enabled, or are you just obsessed with it

and did you protect the keys to your 2FA properly or did you for example write it on an unencrypted txt file hanging on your desktop named bitfinex 2FA?
and these pictures just show Email notifications of different IP addresses accessing a bitfinex account!
is this your account? and did you lose money?

and also i am very curious to know how and why are you trading 10-15BTC every week on bitfinex while it is under a lot of pressure from their bank and have problems with withdrawals?

I think bitffinex is not popular like polo but not 1 satoshi i spend here.

For real? Absolutely no one can be on subject on this forum? Every one is here just for posts?
