[stuffie]

Just received a mail from Gatehub, see below.
I am not sure if this is phishing mail, otherwise Gatehub must be realy stupid to send a secret key by mail.

I just transfered all XRP from Gatehub to Kraken.

We have reason to believe that your ripple wallets’ security may have been compromised. Therefore, in order to maintain the security of your funds, we need you to act now!

We need you to follow the below steps in order to safeguard your funds. Any other wallets used are still at risk and so we urge our customers to follow the below steps:

    Wallet Address: r9V1Sz1ZSHC1ApwD1rdN71HWjPaLGWPZAX
    Secret key: snW1Tfj7UBpwJ7cqZQtvn1eJeP6sA

Warning Warning Warning..... warnings are in red!!

But in reality, now that I step back and envision a red "warning" it invokes a sense of panic.... green is better...
