Title: Locked out of account
Post by: yams12345 on May 16, 2014, 04:36:16 PM
I can't get into my main account and the reset password doesn't work for some reason, who do I need to contact or what do I need to do to get my account back.


Regards

You have to contact theymos https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=35
and provide proof that it is your account. This usually works by signing a message with a private key to an address you posted with your locked account.

If you cannot reset the password and cannot prove ownership, you probably won't get your account back.
Also, wrong section, should be in Meta.

What is your account? Are you hacked?
