Title: How to get help when my account was hacked
Post by: bitcoin9999 on October 07, 2017, 08:13:25 PM
Hi,

My account on bitcointalk.org was hacked.  I could not login so I created this account.  How do I get help to get my old account back?  Thanks.

Write a post in meta, you can also PM theymos and/or one of the moderators. Did you register it with a valid email? Was the password or email changed after the hack? If it's both yes then you should have no problems getting it back. A piece of advice for you: post your BTC address somewhere in the forum, be it in a stacking thread in meta or in a campaign/giveaway and you'll have a proof of ownership.

Then contact Cyrus with the proof.

you need to change security data which only can throw Administrator accounts like theymos
