Good question!  I'm not perfectly clear on what the answer is, so hopefully more enlightened members / mods can help answer your question.  Just guessing, I would assume that it is based on the value at the time of the buyer placing the order ... so, in your example, it would be 1 btc.

Been lurking for a while, finally decided to get active 

Anyhoozle...what are you supposed to do if you've ordered from cm without fe so that it doesn't go to auto-fe in the end?

I believe that all you'll need to do is wait 4 days until the "resolve" option becomes available and then click on that so it takes it to the resolution center.  From there, you can request a refund, and be sure you mention the fact that this is because the order was with a vendor whose account was compromised and now closed.

Speaking of which ... I'm unclear on this part:

The account has now been closed thankfully.

When you say it has been closed - do you mean permanently?  Or are they resetting the password for you so you can eventually use your vendor account again?

Thanks everyone for all the advice, The account has now been closed thankfully, Does anyone know what happens to outstanding orders in this situation, I know of one guy that ordered after the account was compromised but never f/e'd, will he get his money back?

If the scammer who was in control of your account was unable to withdraw the funds (because they didn't have your PIN) then yes, you should be able to provide refunds to those who did finalize early for the scammer.

Yes, this is a widespread issue due to server reconfiguration during the attacks.

His vending has been disabled for the time being while SR admin look into possible scamming on his part.

Yeah that is exactly what happened, i clicked on a link in a message that i received in my vendor account and entered my password, I was then asked for my pin which i did not provide, I then closed the link and have been unable to log on since, which i put down to the recent problems sr has been having recently, Thanks for the advice anyway.
cm.

That message was a scam and has been widely discussed on the forums recently.  If you had verified the PGP signature, you'd have seen it wouldn't verify (because it was fake - copied and pasted at the beginning and end of the message). 

You'll need to start a new account and from there, message Vendor Support to let them know what's going on.  I've let the admins know about the situation so hopefully they can freeze your account before too many of your customers get scammed.

In the future, please be more careful with your account information - it's your customers who suffer in these situations because they're being scammed and any of them who provided their shipping info unencrypted have now possibly had their sensitive information compromised.
