For those of you who haven't been paying attention to recent happenings in the TCGO it appears that the TCGO's security has been compromised and that some accounts have had their cards stolen.
To put it simply, someone managed to enter people's accounts and set up unauthorized private trades between their accounts and his account consisting of several Ultra-Rares, promos, and packs in exchange for a single throwaway card. There are many theories as to how he did this but the most logical one, given the how broad the affected accounts are (people who Android devices, PCs, and Mac computers have all reported that items were stolen), is that the breach is on TPCi's end.
And with that said, what do you guys think of this?
EDIT: One thing that I should also mention is that the TCGO staff is surprisingly quiet about this and no one is happy about it.

- Has my account been affected? How can I tell if it has?
- Help! Items were stolen from my account! What can I do to get them back?
- My account wasn't hit, but I'm scared about this. What can I do to protect my items?
