first time I've ever heard of any type of broker's client database being breached quite a surprise. not stated is how 'customers were affected' July 18/12 via Oanda Forum " OANDA has identified and immediately rectified a breach involving unauthorized access to our client database that affected 0.2% of our total user population. We were the victim of a targeted hacking attack of an employeeâs laptop and are working closely with authorities to identify the perpetrator. We are in the process of notifying all affected customers and our customer service team is working directly with these clients to assist them. OANDA has also implemented additional security protocols to prevent such a breach from occurring again. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our customer service team by phone at 1 877-626-3239 or by email to frontdesk@oanda.com.

This occassion confirmed that our accounts are NOT safe. I would like to ask you again to implement 2FA as soon as possible. Thank you.
