Where can I find it?

This is the email I received:

There has been a withdrawal from your Mt.Gox account:

Transaction reference: 4cc0c2b8-045f-4018-9b54-73c62a81b3ed

You can access your account history for more details.

Please contact us as soon as possible by replying to this email if you did not request this withdrawal.

Thanks,
The Mt.Gox Team>>

I think so.

At least he made many people with smaller figures very happy when they withdrew.
Or at least Mark who is enjoying Mojitos while his company burns down.

You kept 700BTC on mtgox...are you insane?

what was the transaction confirmation number?
it's a long green string of digits and letters which is shown after you confirmed withdrawal.

I am waiting for my Btc for more than 4 days.  I just received this email:  


Dear  M

There has been a withdrawal from your Mt.Gox account:

Transaction reference: 4cc0c2b8-045f-4018-9b54-73c62a81b3ed
Date: 2013-11-03 18:20:20 GMT

The Btc have disappeared from my account and they are not in the destination address. Where is my money?
Here is a screenshot of the Account history:


But 700Btc not appear in blockchain:   https://blockchain.info/address/1PPWBeauKVg3PahkbA3VXXS6zrfvfsMNJC

Are they stealing my money?  I ask someone for help.

Hola. I'm waiting for my BTC now 30 hours. No sign of any progress yet. Is there any way I can see my transaction hash if I didn't make note of it when I was doing the withdrawal? I have only reference from them in email, but thats it.

Thanks for any help 

Same here. Had a few more withdrawal go through without problems. I am glad that I am no longer dealing with gox. There's a long list of mysterious events at that site that they really should explain. These double spends not the least of them.

My withdrawal was finally processed (I had filed a ticket also), with a totally different transaction.

Made a withdraw from gox a couple of hours ago, went through no issue (for BTC that is...been waiting on fiat for ages).

Update. I sent three payments. One for 1BTC, one for 4BTC and one for 95BTC. The 4BTC payment was double-spent as shown in my earlier post. The 1 BTC payment eventually arrived. The 95 BTC payment did not show up on the API for a long time, and when it did eventually show up, I could see that it has also been double-spent. I include the tx here as documentary proof:

Anyone who wishes to can see this tx for themselves on the gox API and also verify that it has been double spent, by submitting it at https://blockchain.info/pushtx . To see the details of the tx one can submit it at https://coinb.in/decode-raw-transaction.html. Both of these pages expect the tx in hex format though, so here is the tx as a hex string :

Go to https://data.mtgox.com/api/0/bitcoin_tx.php and find your transaction record searching for your transaction ID (hash) which you see as green text string when Gox confirmed your withdrawal.

It looks like: {"hash":"transaction_id","tx":"base64_transaction_value"}

copy base64_transaction_value to clipboard and then convert it to HEX string on this website http://tomeko.net/online_tools/base64.php

Then copy HEX string value and submit it on https://blockchain.info/pushtx


If you then see a text saying "An outpoint is already spent", this means you are Goxed and your transaction is invalid because it's a double-spend.
If so, just post it here to blame the Gox once again

Please explain how you converted the transaction ID to HEX and then broadcasted it yourself.

Can you do that with the BitcoinQT client?

Similar problem here. Different error though "Unable To find all tx inputs". 3 of the 4 tx inputs are good, one is not.

May be gox does it intentionally because they are really short of btc and now they are broadcasting multiple double transactions from single address and are prowiding customers with invalid tx hashes during withdrawal ?

Now I know why my withdrawal transaction went missing.

I told them to hire some professional programmers on the support page, looks like I was right.

The same thing just happened to me. Here is the transaction from https://data.mtgox.com/api/0/bitcoin_tx.php

I tried to rebroadcast, but the tx gets rejected. Decoding this shows that this is because the second input has just been double spent in this transaction.

I find this extremely disturbing.

This was one of three payments sent this morning. I have yet to decode the oother two, but I expect to see more of the same.

Two days ago I was asked by my technically inexperienced friend to investigate lost Mtgox transaction which has never appeared in blockchain.

I found his transaction on https://data.mtgox.com/api/0/bitcoin_tx.php, then converted it from base64 into HEX and tried to broadcast it myself.
However, after attempting doing so, I was really confused to find that the transaction is double-spend.

A day later bitcoins were finally delivered to the target address but they were sent with different transaction.

Did anybody experience the same behavior of Mtgox transactions?
