i would suggest to make the account with 2 or more names, like a 2 factor authification process. To get 1 wrong is likely, but to get 2 or 3 wrong is nearly impossible.

Shouldn't titan make this much harder?The guy wasn't exactly careful to cover his tracks, also we're phasing out TITAN specifically because of the false sense of security it gives at this point (well also because it makes the thin client much simpler).

I'm gonna get shot down for this... but this is yet another case where bitshares could benefit from having reversible transactions.You could set a block target for when the transaction was spendable (like an uncleared balance in a bank), and up to that block the transaction could be reversed by the sender.
bter.com should just stop using 'btercom' for deposits and only provide account key. They were too late to register 'bter' and now they got to stop confusing their customers or this will soon turn into real chaos

BTER wouldn't give you access to the funds in your account until the transaction became irreversible, so it would be akin to filling out the sending information and then waiting 30 mins before clicking send.If I were sending $6k to anywhere, I would chose that option by default just for the safety factor.

Ouch. I'm in favor of putting a warning next to "bter" account and/or hiding stuff with negative rep from the autofill.
