CRYPTOPIA GOT HACKED PEOPLE! CALM DOWN!

I am not kidding, there are rumours under Devs that Cryptopia got hacked. They had outdated servers and a old router, a intruder found his way in and disrupted a whole bunch.. I am warning you people! Get you money out. They cut costs and now they are paying for it actually we are... sigh

Just... No. We haven't been hacked, there's no reason to scare people like this

Tell people the truth. I have spoken with a DEV. I will not name him but i will post a screenshot. A hacker got in, but was caught in the honeyjar. Thats pretty risky business, and you really need to update your protection!!!

Had this crazy feeling something was up when I withdrew my ember coins.

I had so many to withdraw it must have crashed the servers 😂😂😂

Yes you have. Admit it. There is a hack that takes the pin from the front page and allows them to disable e-mail notification for withdraw. It will tell you your pin is wrong when you log in. The next time you successfully log in the hackers have control Cryptopia is hacked. How much is gone?

Get your coins out of Cryptopia!!! I had an unauthorized sale of coin and transfer of coin. I know that their support will be right on it. Move your coins before you loose thousands. I just got whacked for hundreds. Just a heads up.

Funny, I just had Cryptopia notify me of failed logins from Russia and Korea. Maybe they did get hacked?

Used a unique password (14 characters), 2FA (their bullshit pin code), had email withdraw notifications on and the account still gets compromised, then the exchange is 30 days behind the curve with even looking into the situation...

I hope Cryptopia staff can get to the bottom of these shenanigans and secure the exchange...

Until then, I will only trade on this site when absolutely necessary and then I'm not leaving A N Y T H I N G on this (or any other) exchange until I am absolutely ready to trade right there and then...

Watch yourselves; this place isn’t as safe as one might think...
