Title: How Long Does it Take?
Post by: dannyodaytommytalker on December 08, 2016, 10:08:20 AM
my account got hacked dec 1, I found out dec 3, i sent a signed message in PM to Theymos... I just want to know how long I should expect to wait. I had a lot of trouble doing the signed message (cant copy-paste to or from multibit) and I would like to know if my message worked or not. I'm afraid it didnt work and theymos merely junked it without saying anything to me. all i want is my stolen account back.

Try cyrus as he now handles most of these things but you still might need patience. Make sure all the info is correct though as detailed in the sticky: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0

In the meantime you can post the signed message in here so others can check to see if it verifies.

you can check first the signed message thing if it will verify before sending them to the admin/s. here are some links you can use

thank you very much, i must have copied the signature incorrectly because it doesnt verify. i will try again and check it with those helpful links you provided.

why doesnt multibit allow copy pasting of these sigs and addys? ill assume its a security measure, but it makes it nearly impossible to use.

anyway, thanks for the help. i dont even really use bitcointalk anymore, i just dont feel right knowing a cheat is using my good identity.
