Title: Had account hacked
Post by: newuser45x on October 29, 2017, 10:02:00 AM
My account is https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=242492

If someone can explain to me like I'm a five year old on how to recover this as I never had this happen.

You need to follow those instructions and PM cyrus with the info. If you post the signed message here the account can be locked or tagged with negative feedback in the meantime whilst you wait for an admin to restore it.

Basically, your going to need to follow this to the letter: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0
If you aren't familiar with signing messages then follow the guide here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.0

So find a staked address by the account which is unedited and sign a message with it. Send this to cyrus with all the information needed and wait patiently. If he doesn't reply then give him a week and send him a reminder. Doesn't seem like you've publicly staked any addresses, maybe you have a PM that you sent an address?

He doesn't seem to have one posted anywhere unless they've been deleted: https://www.bctalkaccountpricer.info/?token=kbcqhgae

Did you ever send one to anyone via pm? Looks like you'll have to try prove ownership via an other way if not (which could be difficult).

Yeah thats what I needed explaining like I'm a five year old finding addresses and verifying the addresses, I'll check it out

I had a btc address in my profile and sig but it got removed

I could confirm with subSTRATA of a recent transaction if you check my feedback left, how would this be possible in recovering though?

Awesome, if you can recall their name you could ask them for the address you sent and the PM id. That second link  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.0) that I gave you is pretty straight forward to follow so give it a try. Basically find the wallet which you use for the address and follow the instructions in the link, most of the wallets on there have a step by step image guide.

Oh, I just noticed what you meant now, what if I was the buyer and he the seller? He sent the address, I didn't

You will need to sign a message from the address that was used. You can get subSTRATA to report the PM to cyrus and then send him the signed message. When was the account hacked? The older the address the better. You also have a feedback left with Mezaz   2016-02-23   0.00000000      Bought invite from seller, good seller (though that seller is banned though still lurks on others here).

But you sent him bitcoins, right? You need to provide ownership of the address that was used.

this right here. if you can sign a message with the address you used to send me the payment for that trade, ill do as h&co stated and report the original pm from your original account to cryus as proof of your ownership of that address, and therefore the account (as of last month).

the address in question: 1M15Lrgm4T9aQiH371r4hYZvtpjJn2iJdj

im not sure how much weight that address would carry since it was used so recently, but it's something i guess. in case you're not sure on how to sign a message with a bitcoin address: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.0
be sure to include the forum date and time in the message.

that aside, the user did send me the correct transaction hash for the trade 'drippx' and i did last month, probably is him / her.

Does the paypal email address match the one originally registered to your account? Your email has been changed by the hacker so maybe that could be used to help verify.

you're missing a message, there should be a message that you sign, and when you click 'sign' the signature should pop up in your client. try again, and please include the forum time and date (in the upper right corner of the page).
