Hacked on Poloniex.............DON'T TRUST 2FA!

in #hacked8 years ago

Get your bitcoins offline in a secure location just because you have less than 5 bitcoins doesn't mean you won't get hacked. I learned the hard way this morning. 2FA authentication does not make you safe.

Sort:  

It sure doesn't, the hacker can just force your account to use the funds to buy their shitcoin. This doesn't require 2FA.
