We are talking about a half a billion dollar heist here. That's a lot of money - probably in the top 10 of biggest robberies ever committed.

You wouldn't have be a super hacker to pull it off. Some hidden cameras, USB key loggers and some microphones in the office could probably have gotten you a lot closer to that money.

And if you then could lure MtGox into emptying their hot wallet with the tx mal problem, then even better, but that was probably not even necessary.

Third biggest robbery ever if this list is accurate: http://listverse.com/2009/12/01/10-largest-robberies-in-hist...

I'm not sure it would count as a robbery as usually in English jurisdictions the term robbery implies force (through violence or threat of violence).
