Bitcoin Forum

my account was hacked (dan5189)

i locked it and sent email to cyprus , got no answer , soon the lock will be gone and account gone forever , if there is any admin here please help, i have no idea how it happend(maybe cause forum doesn't have 2nd auth defence) but someone changed my email and password after that.

Is that possible to recover the account without the btc address and all those signature things?

I Am the owner Of the First email of the account(not the changed one) And i can prove it to any admin , could i get some help please?

If you have any ETH address used for any bounty or anything then it may help. I have seen someone signing their ETH address to unlock their account.

Try finding any ETH address you ever posted from your original account. If there is any then sign a message to that address and try with that proof. Hope you get your account back. Good luck.

- It's not gonna help I guess coz OP already said...

Seems like OP does not have a singed stacked BTC address here.

Update: I had to go through under the pile of my post history LOL
Unlocked account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3452370.0) <====== this is the post I was talking about.

Hope it helps

i really have no idea what sign message means/how to do that(if there is video tutorial , it would help more) ... why can't they just send "Verify Email" to the first email and that's it? The account had same email for over a year until it got hacked...

Too easy to change. Accounts are being sold with email, private keys and social media accounts.

Good luck

PS: Try to remember if you ever posted any bitcoin address or any ETH address from your original account. If you did post any bitcoin address or ETH address then try to find it out from that account (do extensive search on your post history page). If you find any then get the access of that address (Bitcoin or ETH) and sing the address.

If that's a bitcoin then do as KWH said and if that's an ETH then follow the above links.

Remember if you never used any ETH or BTC address ever then I doubt you will ever be able to recover your lost account.

i found one btc address i wrote from that account , is there any way to sign it from coinbase or something?

This could be the problem. Cyprus is a small island country in the Eastern Mediterranean and does not monitor this forum.


Not likely. Did you ever send an address via PM to anyone? You'll have to find some other way to prove the account is yours but to be honest the chance of you getting it back is very slim without a signed message.

i have just checked the Email and as far as i checked all messages , i didn't find any address i sent to someone in pm... but i do have all the conversations of pm...

What about this address:


You also posted about several facuet sites. Do you own the following bellow? Is there any way you could prove ownership somehow with them?

yep i can ofcourse , just btczone is closed , all others open i can even idk , write some kind of text so admin can verify
Edit: this is the address connected to my coinbase: http://prntscr.com/jgjivi

i find your BTC address (https://archive.is/kemvO#selection-3453.9-3442.7).
Follow this guide (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0) and use brainwallet (https://brainwalletx.github.io/#sign) to sign a message.

what is Private key? i don't have it in coinbase

i haven't used coinbase before. do you have seeds in coinbase?

p/s: i just see this thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1743248.0), you should have a btc address which can sign a message.

well , i don't have one , but i do have access to the websites i Told i owe... so maybe admins can verify my account from there

Then contact either theymos or Cyprus cyrus with any info/proof you can, but I wouldn't hold your breath. Even accounts with valid signed messages aren't getting restored right now so the chance of them taking the time to look into this is very low. If you can sign a message with the address above you will have a much better chance.

What are you saying?
I got hacked too and locked my account, I didn't know there is a timeline, I'm starting to worry now...

oh my bad , it was saying lock Within 14 days , not for 14 days ... oops

The Admins just don't answer in pm , do you Actually know any admin that will answer me in a pm? P.s , i have Timecoin wallet and i can sign it , it's the one in the signature of bitcointalk... is that going to work as btc/eth?
