This was my exact ticket from BTC-E if anyone has trouble believing that they responded in this way:

Thanks for sharing you experience with the site. I've had some issues with btc-e in regards to logins probs but nothing with account hacking. I will say this isn't the first I've heard about an account there being hacked but can't say the situations are the same just saying.

If you're intent on not using BTC-E any further, have you tried Cryptsy? It's having some issues with servers, i.e. goes down/slow during heavy load ATM but once those problems are ironed out it looks like it should be a good service.

I don't know what I've done to deserve the barrage of abuse

Well.. instead of figuring out the reason of the issue, checking your PCs, setting up/looking in your router logs/etc, you blindly assume that issue is not on your end.
Basically, in my eyes, you are the kind of person, which screams that Windows sux, when.. dunno.. anything wrong happens ; )
I think that's stupidity without the option of learning, cause in order to actually learn you always must assume that you can be wrong or at least first you need to prove that you are not.

So.. since you can't be helped.. why not have a good laugh? ; )

, I wonder how many of these replies are sock puppets, as they are the ones using broken English.

Ofc, everyone who is not native english speaker is a 'sock puppet'. Right.
Btw, BTC-e is operated by russians! Probably communists! RED ALERT!!

Anyway, call ghostbusters!

PPs. But I realise that the IP is my own and the only way this could happen is if someone has spoofed my IP somehow. I doubt by pc is compromised as I have a good Firewall & Antivirus.

So the logged ip's are yours and still you doubt that your pc is compromised. Well it may be haunted. Call ghostbusters.

Many reports say only one thing - BTC-E is doing selective scamming.

I don't know what I've done to deserve the barrage of abuse, I wonder how many of these replies are sock puppets, as they are the ones using broken English. Every time you log in to BTC-E they send you an email to confirm a successful login. But I keep receiving these even though I haven't been on BTC-E in months, why would this be? Sometimes this would happen several times in one hour, why on earth would I do this?

The only answer I have is that an automated script is logging into people's accounts, checking if there have been any deposits and then trying to withdraw to their account somehow.

P.s. The reason I don't use 2fa is that it is broken! If I click on the link for Two-factor authentication nothing happens. Basically I just want to get out of this broken website.

Keep in mind in order for the withdrawal to go successfully they need your email account as well since it needs to be confirmed

"what is the response you would like"

Although OP probably misunderstund things that reply still bothers me. I mean is it even possible for an exchange to answer like that Shocked

It's either you logging in, or you have a virus. The fact that they send you the email straight after you change your password again, also probably indicates the emails are from your own logins.

You realize that if you were infected with a remote administration tool, they are capable of using your network as a socks proxy and login with your IP? Think about it.

Hi. I just wanted you to know that BTC-E is not secure and you shouldn't use it. I did some exchanges with it and it worked but more recently my account got totally hacked into. I didn't loose any coins but it's just not worth using. My username and password are not easily guessable, my password is around 25 random chars. All the time I get emails from BTCE telling me I successfully logged into my account, like this:

Code:

Successful authorization.
Login: 
IP: 
Date and time: 03.12.13 02:17

I've changed my password but it just happens again. I also tried to email them about the security issues but I got the response "what is the response you would like" ?? Very helpful. I also asked them to delete the account but received nothing.

Are you sure the IP isn't yours? Are you sure you didn't log in at the EXACT SAME time?

Maybe you have keylogger on your computer?
And they never answers messages write in english.

Where did you get that?

I have heard this couple times at this forum.

OMG!
Whenever I login to BTC-E I receive e-mail, that someone logged in to BTC-E from my ip! I even checked the time, it matches!

Could this someone be me??

No. It can't be. Someone invisible is sitting in my room with invisible computer and logins to BTC-E using my ip at the same time as I log in.

Wait, invisiblity does not exist. Must be something else. I know. Hackerz exist!

HAAAAKZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

was your account actually compromised? where was the IP situated? you realize they send you those emails every time YOU log in, right?
