Topic: Cryptopia... (Read 250 times)
Cryptopia is based in New Zealand and offers a lot more than just a crypto-exchange. While the trading conditions will be the main focus of this review, their website also features a fully functional online shop, where cryptocutrencies are the means of exchange. This may not exactly be the next Silk Road, but a lot of interesting items are up for sale.
I am a regular use of cryptopia, I received lot of emails states that my account is try to login from defferent ip and account locked for 15 minutes, so be careful about keeping token in exchange, any time will be hacked
In fact almost any exchange can be attacked by hackers. This is now the most lucrative market for their field of activity. How lucky...
Now you need to be very careful, after the latest news that even apps on the download.com have been infected with trojans for stealing coins...

Crytopia is one of the old exchange in the space that have not actually scale up the way I thought they would, they become important when they staarted listing some of these low cap ICOs and famous for pump and dump group pumping low cap coins, not surprise that they are a target for hackers, just don't leave your fund on exchanges
I have not heard this news but I think cryptopia is vulnerable to hacking attacks, I would not hold coins in cryptopia. If this exchange will be target I don't think it can compete against hackers.
It has been a long time , I haven't used cryptopia. Actually the service is good . If the security is vulnarebl, more users will leave cryptopia. Hope there will be more decentralized exchanger like bancor network.
I don't have an account in cryptopia since just looking at it looks like the site is not okay for first time users like me. Seems like I still need to navigate to somewhere before I reach my destination 
Anyway, there are plenty of news about hacked exchanges lately so I guess we should really be aware how to secure our investments. That is why it is advisable to move our investments from exchanges to wallet as exchanges are prone to hacking. It is really important to activate 2FA security so our account couldn't be easily hacked.

When people say that their online accounts are hacked, they often hack into their hacked email accounts, because of weak security. Access to your email account gives hackers access to other accounts.
If someone has access to your email, they can quickly search the list of sites you visit / use. Then they can visit the sites, one by one, and reset the password. When reset the password, the link will be sent to the email inbox. After this, they can change the email address in your online account on the site, and take over the account.
When hackers hack into one of your accounts, it's easier for hackers to hack into your other accounts. Some sites may ask you questions for account recovery, such as "Where were you born?" and "What is your mother's maiden name?" etc. Once a hacker knows about it, then he or she can hack into your other accounts.

You believe that someone will be using real ip adress in process of hacking exchange:) ? I think it can be any country:) and always use 2fa and check adress to avoid fising:)
Cryptopia users in Cryptopia (New Zealand) were targeted by hacker attacks. From the users of the exchange, mass complaints about repeated attempts to break into private offices began to arrive. Account holders assume that criminals were able to access the list of e-mails to which user accounts are registered, and, possibly, steal passwords to them. According to the reports of the victims, attempts to log into their accounts have been performed from the IP addresses of the Russian Federation, Ukraine and the Czech Republic. Users who were more enterprising and protected their accounts using two-factor authentication, were not harmed.
thanks for this info, and i am lucky. i enabled 2fa authentication. and i recommend, before you use any of trading site or exchanger muct use the 2nd level of security. and you have a peace of mind.
I got an email today that someone was trying to access my Cryptopia account and Cryptopia locked it. I looked up the IP and it was in South Korea. Thank goodness for 2 factor level security...
Yeah, i can confirm i have failed login attempt from an ip of: 5.189.200.147
I'm very sorry for this exchange and I'm very sorry for those who on this exchange had anything, because I heard that this exchange was hacked and now they break into accounts on these exchanges. I think that they still did not try very hard to get out of hacker attacks.

Oh, I also received a letter today that somebody wanted to enter my exchange cabinet, but Cryptopia blocked this possibility. I'm Ukraine.
This is bad news. Cryptopia and all exchanges should try to protect their customers using the maximum security measures, because unfortunately this is a sector that really like hackers
Thanks for the information. Everyone should be careful and use 2FA for sure. Do not use the same password for more than 2 accounts. Don't hold your coins in any exchange websites. Hold it in your secured wallet and pay gas fee to transfer to exchanges. It's way safer. 
I also received a failed login notifications , a new IP address: 185.89.101.86
After I check this IP address, it also comes from Russia. warn those who are using crytopia should be very careful
