Blockchain.info Security Breach
Yeas and another blockchain story
Hi i want to share my experience with a security breach from Blockchain.info Because i think it might be helpful for Others.
I am aware that nobody should store lager amounts of btc in services like them. and use a ledger hw Wallet for my Stack.
I had from a Recent Buy a lower triple digit amount in the b lockchain Trade Account. i Simply did not have the time because i wanted to distribute the amount in different Ledger adresse.
however today i received 3 Notifications from the Blockchain Wallet with a 2 Fa Code on My iphone .
afaik the godfather malware is currently just an android thing ? correct me if i am wrong
I asked my wife which was not near me is she is trying to login --
Negative.
i began to panic and logged in my self.
next notification was that 2 Fa has been disabled. in a rush of panic i copied a ledger Receiving adress and initiated a transfer of the whole balance to that adress i did not even cross check if the adress was copied properly i just wanted to be faster then the attacker.
i instantly also changed the blockchain password and re enabled 2 fa and changed the password of my gmail adress which was tied to the blockchain account.
I also unliked all the Credit cards which where associated trough Crypto buys out of Blockchain.
The transfer to my ledger adress was still showing pending i was nervours .....
was it really the right adress..
will they maybe hold back the transfer because of security issues....
Which imho should automatically rise if there where attempts withouth the right 2fa, 2fa has been disabled , reenabled and the password has changed and a transfer has been initiated.
But none of these after some really really long 20 minutes i saw the transfer went to my adress
Puuh Lucky i was awake at that time and instantly reacted.
Dont know if they would have been able to send the funds to their adresses if i was not quicker
i also wrote to a support agent onto their site but he could not answer the questions if my account is safe now or not. i am waiting now for an email from their security team.
In the end i have to say lesson learned i will never Buy there BTC again and of course not store the smallest chunk of crypto in their wallet.
But what could lead to this ? how can 2fa be just simply disabled it makes no sense to me.
The login email i received after i logged in with the new password was Russian < what else>
had anyone of you similar experiences ?
Would you trust that the account is safe ow ? or just dump it and make a new one ?

Can BTC be purchaed anonymously?
is it possible to purchase BTC anonymously any longer , besides at an ATM? I have an ex-wife who is constantly trying to get more money out of me. The judge that has been assigned to us believes that anything I save or invest should be split with her despite the fact that I am already paying her an obscene amount each month in alimony. Our children are college age and decided to no longer live with her and moved in with me. Which should have automatically stopped child support but it took the judge 8 months to approve the motion to stop that payment . Which cost me $20k. The only way to hide money is for me to expense it out of my business then hopefully buy btc anonymously. Using an ATM isn't feasible.
Thank ypu

🚨ALERT🚨 Trend is still bearish. Indicators are pointing to full capitulation event. Bad news should come soon $BTC 12k $ETH 600-650 $BNB 40-45 #Altcoins 50-70% potential drop This looks like the test dump. Real dump is yet to come. Stay safe, things could get very ugly.

Long term holding even at seems to be the worst times?
This post is from 11th March, 2018, it was ~9k, it got lower in May or something, to ~$3k, so does it really matter in long term? [link] [comments] |

Crypto is pretty much the only reason I used Reddit anymore, and I'd like to stop using this website. submitted by /u/TheTruthHas...
