My bet is that they (or some user accounts) got hacked, and that the hacker used the money to buy bitcoin.

It just seems a bit too much of a coincidence that they rolled out "security upgrades", forcing me to change my password, at the same time they blocked bitcoin transactions.

Also, I noticed that Paxum allowed me to set a reasonably weak password, one that wouldn't get accepted by many other sites.

I had opened paxum account specifically for this.
I dont see many merchants accepting paxum (like paypal).
Hence, I think I dont have any need for the account.

Any1 knows how to close the account?
