Title: my old account ThirdPrize has been hacked
Post by: ThirdPrize2 on April 22, 2018, 06:55:38 PM
What can I do to get it back.  I clicked on the link in the "change of email" email but I'm not sure it locked the account.  I can respond to the email mentioned in the footer and I can probably sig a message with the address associated with the account. 

What should i do?

You can contact the admin or cyrus about this issue but you need to prove that you own that account.

You need to sign a message if you account stake a bitcoin address. Good luck

Yeah, I tried doing that.  Someone else mentioned my address in a post so i signed something with it, sent it off and have heard nothing back.  Guess i can kiss it good bye.

If you can sign a message from an old staked address, I'll tag the account with red trust until you get it back. If you ever get it back, you'll need another signed message to confirm that.

Update: I received the signed message by PM, but I'll post it here for reference. I don't want to post the email address in public, but accountname@gmail.com doesn't look like a big secret to me, so I assume OP is okay with this. If not, let me know and I'll delete it, but I prefer a public reference.
