Links?, Proof?, anything that wasn't pulled out of yer arse?

it's called common sense something you clearly lack.

Ya, throw around unproven lame statements and I'm the one with no common sense. Roll Eyes

Umm, is that supposed to be proof that the exchange is the one stealing the money here? Doesn't read that way. Sounds like someone got bitten after not knowing how to secure their system correctly.

Okay, tell me, how do you arbitrarily set the withdrawal fee using MtGox's web interface? (to something like 2.2btc)

Okay, go...

Who says hackers use a web page?

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MtGox/API/HTTP/v1#Withdraw_bitcoins
Withdraw bitcoins

https://data.mtgox.com/api/1/generic/bitcoin/send_simple

Send bitcoins from your account to a bitcoin address.

Parameters:

Name    Value    Required    Example
address    string    Yes    N/A
amount_int    int    Yes    N/A
fee_int    int    No    N/A
no_instant    bool    No    N/A
green    bool    No    N/A

Being ignorant doesn't make either of you right.

You can't use the Api without the keys. So that would not be likely.

{"result":"error","error":"Identification required to access private APINULL","token":"login_error_missing_rest_key"}

Beware of Mt. Gox - can't get Bitcoin out now without photo ID!

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/beware-of-mt-gox-cant-get-bitcoin-out-now-without-photo-id-313343

Now this...

Anyone have any charts that estimate MtGox's liquidity level?

I'd love to see one to, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Mt. Gox has a long history which makes it probably impossible to come up with any meaningful estimates of what they might be sitting on.

It is interesting to watch whether liquidity comes off of the public order-book when large trades happen. Some of these within the last few days did not seem to. So it was either BTC that had not been on the market, was in a dark pool, or was newly arrived from quasi-whale contacts of theirs. The most interesting thing to know would be whether they are burning through their own (probably) substantial pool which they've accumulated over the years. These things can only be guessed at and inferred absent a whistle-blower, hack, or something like that. Even then the info would have to be taken with a grain of salt.

I believe you don't have 2FA? anyway bye bye 3 BTC. Most likely its hacker and not MTGOX

it's pretty well known that Mt.Gox is stealing Bitcoins from its users to pay for its insolvency.

Hello,

All my bitcoins are gone from my bitcoin address... Received an e-mail 10 minute ago here:

Transaction reference: 27fb49c7-72d4-4e88-9bb0-d2646d403e97
Date: 2013-10-11 07:43:40 GMT
IP: 209.21.68.151

How is that even possible? I have a very strong password and no viruses... Can't be true!

The IP is in California and I am in Switzerland. Jeez....

Just did a quick check and this might help too, looks like a gmail user is connected to that IP for sending spam for the site discountflitflopshoes.com:

That would only protect you from common threats, which the highly specialiced trojans/keyloggers out for bitcoin exchange login data most definitely are not.
The only way to confidently deny the presence of bitcoin malware is if you'd exclusively accessed exchanges via a fresh and clean VM.

It wouldn't be enough if the host OS wasn't "fresh and clean" too.

It would probably be enough if he used the host OS exclusively for accessing exchanges and the guest OS for other Internet-interacting stuff. Though it may still be sometimes possible to compromise the host OS from the guest OS (or other guests if they aren't properly isolated).

How would you even know that?

Because I ran a full check with 4 different anti malware / anti virus tools?

antivirus tools can not kill the real cracker's backdoors, your PC using habit is the best safeguard for you private information
