Mt. Gox Creditors Reportedly Hit By Failed Login Attempts Amid Repayments
Summary
Several Reddit users have reported multiple failed login attempts on their Mt. Gox accounts, amid ongoing bitcoin repayments. More than 15 users have received similar notifications, indicating that an unknown individual is attempting to gain control of their accounts and potentially withdraw any bitcoin received. The Mt. Gox claims portal is temporarily down for maintenance. One user suggested that accounts with two-factor authentication (2FA) should be safe from these attempts. In July, Mt. Gox began repaying creditors affected by a 2014 hack, with over $9 billion in bitcoin and $73 million in bitcoin cash set to be distributed in the coming months.
