He's breaking one of the 3 CMU act. Is CJ going to be taking legal actions?

I don't think CJ can.
He didn't actually "hack" anything.

One could almost argue that it was the player's fault.

It's not like Graalians.com was saying "Hey, if you register to this site, then we'll steal your personal details and/or Graal account/money!" upon registration.

And as most people have established, it wasn't the expected thing to happen, despite the probability that it could happen.

He broke:
Unauthorised access with intent to commit or facilitate commission of further offences
This builds on the previous offence. The key here is the addition of ‘intent to commit...further offences’. It therefore includes guessing or stealing a password, and using that to access, say another person’s on-line bank account and transferring their money to another account. For this offence the penalty is up to five years’ imprisonment and/or a fine.

Well, it hasn't been hacked, more like phished. Or just stolen.

I had $450 USD taken from my PayPal account. Is it possible that this is linked?

Indeed it is.

Also, Emily, I take great care in where I register. Graalians.com seemed like a legitimate place to go.

Seems like I found out where my money went, then. I'll inform PayPal and the authorities, but I'm sure they won't do crap.

Graalians.com wasn't a bad site. In fact, I thought it would probably get big. It sort of did, but for all the wrong reasons. They were reasons not made clear to the public. The website was not run by a legitimate individual, rather than hacked into or otherwise, so his methods were unethical. Stealing accounts through methods like that and using Paypal accounts to send money to himself is illegal, if I am not mistaken. Whether or not I advise you all to take any sort of action upon it, though, is completely up to you.

It also seems that VC had 'wrong' password attempts logged, as some people who did not have their actual password stored there still had their accounts stolen (some people may have tried logging into graalians.com with their normal password by force of habit).

That's not what I asked. I asked if Stefan (or I suppose another representative of Graal Online) had contacted paypal in support of it's users.

Don't take this as me being rude, I'm not trying to be rude. Thanks.
