I demoted everyone to staff in case this is a compromised admin account. Perhaps I can ask the chap nicely at the hacker forum how he did this.
[/quote]So the exploit remains unpatched? The only responsible thing to do is to shut it down and fix the problem. Simply taking shots in the dark will only result in everyone’s private data being compromised.
[/quote]As gloomy as that prospect is, I totally agree.

Obviously, more than we were doing …

A friend of mine (who has an account here) just received an email stating [s]BTC-e (no mention on their website) had been hacked and to change his password.[/s] (
I just wanted to mention it in case others start receiving them because I’m not sure how long it will take him to respond with the email.[b]Be wary of any email like this you may receive.[/b]

Do we have a “correct plan” to urgently inform members, of potential phishing emails?
A banner on the site on emails? Posts of any suspect mails?

Still no reset password emails.

[/quote]If you used the same password here as you did anywhere else, I’d go everywhere else and change it. -

[/quote]Nope I just use a random password here.

Just got an email from BTC-e claiming that I have requested a password change, which I obviously didn’t.
I for one am now genuinly concerned, although all passwords I use are different. Please take this seriously and CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD(S)!
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up.
