thanks for the tip.
How do you guys feel if a Bank would offer BitCoin (custody) services?
They should be able to offer the same level if (IT) protection, as for their cash/checkings/savings accounts. They would also fall under a regulatory framework and will likly not accept any anonymous accounts.

Were you using the same password for your Cryptsy, Gmail, and Blockchain accounts? Did you not have two factor authentification enabled on any three of the aforementioned accounts? If yes, you have no one to blame but yourself because this was bound to happen by not taking security seriously. If no, you should probably ditch the Symantec for a product that is capable of protecting you from a keylogger, or you should simply avoid malware sources altogether..

Yeah....
Painfull exposure to the biggest reason btc can not become truly mainstream: accounts not linked to owners....
Wallets are a pretty mainstream concept at this point in human history, but if I remove your ID from your wallet, the wallet and its contents are no longer linked to an owner. Painfull exposure to the biggest reason btc can not become truly mainstream: accounts not linked to owners....
i was wondering that too sounds like same password on multiple sites but he has avoided mentioning that so i suspect he did..
coindesk ran a story on this kinda stuff and what i though was funny is Google puts sponsored links first i guess (i don't see them i use scripts / hax / adblockers etc)
what was interesting though is Blockcahin was the example in the new story showing how the google result was a fake site that looked legit.
last year a guy on cryptsy chat got hit by going to google to go to cryptsy and he went to a fake site that stole his login cookie.. he got owned hard !
i have for about a year told people don't use google to find any crypto sites.. for starters
get smart..
there is gonna be a lot of people ripped off.. inevitable
I was using very different passwords for both.
The google incident you described above is actually what happend to me, I think. What I find strange though is how they got my blockchain password, as I did not link this to my google e-mail account, nor do I ever e-mail passwords to my gmail account. FYI I also have other accounts outside of Cryptsy/Blockchain, that they did not hit.
2FA is what I believe should be a standard process for all your IMP accounts.
In today's world where hackers can get access to your passwords using keyloggers, 2FA protects you.

Their is no formal registration that you are the owner of a Bitcoin wallet, therefor legally you can not prove / very difficult to prove that you own the bitcoins on the account.
For your bankaccount however, there is formal registration. Probably linked to your full Name, social security number and/or Passport; you can never question the ownership of the account. (e.g. if I ask a Bank to verify the owner of a Account, they can do that)

What do you mean, my money is in a bank which is linked to me, my btc is in a wallet that is linked to me.
Any time I take money or btc out and give it to someone else to hold I am at risk of identity theft, fraud and scammers
what is the difference, am i missing something

Change your passwords NOW. Turn off that computer and use another or a linux bootable.

Your password is compromised. Login from a secure computer or use a linux bootable USB to change the passwords. It is probably a keylogger or trojan. Then backup all important files (there is a chance these files are also infected). Make sure that you completely format the computer and install preferably a non Windows Operating System as they are highly susceptible to malicious code. Was the password complex?
