You almost gave a hundred people a heart attack with that title. Seems like you got hacked somehow. Possible malware on your machine.

Btc-e is not hacked. Subject is misleading, please change it OP. I'm in the site, trading right now.

I would be more worried about my computer rather than the BTC-E website. You should run some virus scans.

btc-e is anonymous, hacker is anonymous too. if btc-e was hacked, no one could know what happened in that

you can not blame any site if you dont know about it. Please check their twitter: https://twitter.com/btcecom
The site was under DDOs attack and now its alive, according to the latest tweet.

For me Btc-e is working now. And I'm always use 2fa where it possible, I have a dedicated smartfone for it. Additionally you can set IP white list to restrict access to your account.

Btc-e is either doesn't open or open too slowly for me. Could it be related?

Yeah Im also getting the Error,when I click on the Login button a Pop open Saying "Server Error". Please dont relate it to any other issue, its a really good site and i think we should not relate it to Any Other issue. Its server error and will be checked by the owner.

Looks like your account was hacked and not BTC-e. You should change the post title and if you used your BTC-e password on any other website you should change it.

The subject should read,"My computer is/was hacked" and I never used 2fa so they gained my BTC-E account? Luckily you don't have nothing on there to be stolen, that would suck if they managed to empty a big account,

> pheew i though money was stolen from another exchange what would have caused price bumpings you should change the thread name
I dont know about price bumpings, but its always a sad day when people get money stolen by scumbags.
Thing is, if I had had any money on there, it would have been. I have no doubt that in a matter of days many people will have had their money stolen from BTC-E if this attack vector is a general one, and I have
no reason to think it isn't hence a post here.

No, the email was (apparently) from [email protected].

Or your computer were hacked.
You know, keyloggers and other things that may lead to them finding out your user/pw

Seems you have received a mail from [email protected]. That does not mean BTC-e is hacked. It is mail spoofing and can be done to any website. Check the orginating IP of the mail in the mail header and compare it with previous mails from BTC-e.

I have just received a message saying successful authorisation to my Btce account from the ip address 109.201.137.162 which apparently is based in the netherlands.
This was timed at at 26.06.15 21:43.  according to the message, it was 19.43 here so presumably this had just happened. 

As I did not log in, it looks like the account has been hacked or brute forced. For me I dont think there are any implications, its an old account - I tried to log in
and change my password but they had already done that I was not fast enough.

The message from btce is from a noreply address (That really is so smart isn't it!) so I have no idea who I should tell.

That's pretty annoying, but if you have funds on Btce, beware.

Mark.
