Good news everyone!

From the official #mtgox support channel on irc.freenode.org:

16:39 < _DejaVu_> ne0futur: "old acocunts were still allowed to deposit and withdraw btc until recently" <-- what is recently? 2 weeks ago?
16:39 -!- valparaiso is now known as valparaiso_afk
16:42 < Tr|> _DejaVu_ since the lock down, I am in this boat also..
16:43 <@ne0futur> orweinberger: and what is your problem ?
16:43 <@ne0futur> _DejaVu_: yes a few weeks ago
16:44 <@ne0futur> until unverified accounts used the malleability backdoor to get double paid

There you have it, folks. William Waisse, a remote MtGox support person working from his home in Peru, just admitted that yes, people did manage to get double paid and yes, unverified accounts where used to do this.

You're an idiot .

The only reason they got double paid is because mtGOX volunteer do it thanks to their shitty system and incompetent.

Beside, a support person doesnt know fuck and was told where Mark wanted to tell him.
