    i think your biggest concern at this point is protecting your bank roll, send hella emails to freeze your account till matter are figured out caus i bet some one is the withdrawal line

    Sucks to hear this happen....

    Some tips for future: make unique passwords for all sites and don't use the same passwords you do for email etc. put them into a word doc and email this to yourself to keep on your secure pc. Turn of file sharing if you are on wireless.

    Showed a friend a while back how open he was by getting into all five of his poker accounts and I'm a technologically challenged.

    Hope you get your money back.

    ok, how they got the pass is a mystery...but what I really really wonder wonder is how they got in touch with support to change the password?!?!?
