BITTREX ACCOUNT HACKED Two-Factor-Autentication bypassed

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Dear Steemers and Crypto Traders

In the past time we have heared that an BITTREX Trading Account was hacked. The Account Value was around 30k. The owner has enabled Two-Factor-Autentication but the hacker was able to get in.

What can you do to avoid that if you are trading on BITTREX?

  1.  use a strong Password and change it frequently.
  2. enable Two-Factor-Autentication
  3. use the a IP-Whitelist function 
  4. use the Withdrawal Whitelist function 

I hope to help you with this information to keep your data save.

Could you by any chance post a link to the full article/press release/blog-post you are getting this from? I would really be interested in reading that.

I see a link to a very general FAQ-answer page concerning the aftermath of having your user account hacked. However I do not see any mention of the scenario you described above.
