First off...I have always come to SR via the official url..I have it memorized, so as not to fall victim to phising sites.
I had received a refund on one of my purchases, bringing my total BTC to 13.31 as of Oct. 6 @ 12:05 UTC, then on Oct. 6 @ 12:06 a withdrawal was made for all of my bitcoins...of which I did not request or authorize. Also, there is no withdrawal address or anything in the notes. Seems a bit fishy. I was wanting to place an order today, but no BTC = no order :(
I saw a similar problem posted by another user around the same time. Whats going on here? How do I get my BTC back? What can the SR admins do for me? PLEASE HELP! If it wasn't a substantial amount to begin with, I wouldn't cause such a fuss, but 13.31 BTC is quite a bit (for me, at least).
Thanks for any help provided.

Yea, it happened to me too. Contacted SR, and the only resolution that really came was that we are shit out of luck. Something to keep in mind is to keep changing your password and bitcoin address. Somehow in a matter of 5 minutes my leftover btc were gone, the prepaid order I had placed had been refunded and the rest of the btc transferred out. I'm bewildered too, PM'd the vendor with no response. Long story short, the only explanation I got as well was getting phished. How I got phished, no clue. Only give out btc addy to get deposits and to vendors. Never ordering from the guy I just ordered from.

You guys are not the only ones. I see in another thread that nomad bloodbath is recommending you to report the seller who refunded you to SR. Its believed a seller or sellers may be exploiting a new hole in the system (if in doubt, search for the thread where NB speaks about it......).

I'm wondering if that's one of the disappearing threads. I can't find anything about it :-\

If you followed official link every time.. and your money is gone after a refund.. probably good to just shoot a message to bloodbath or SR.. maybe they can find the prob and fix it ... assuming no user error-- but benefit of the doubt to you all.
