Someone lock it or return it to me please.. any post coming it are not from me.

EDIT: nvm i got it back

For proof, post a signed message from the BTC address or PGP key related to the account. If you want to recover it, PM that signed message to theymos - it will take typically 1-2 weeks. See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0 for more details. :)

Geez what did you do to piss off bitpop? He left you like 5 negatives, one of which is your dox. Was it the fact that you called him a scammer (I highly doubt he actually scammed you).

Although I highly doubt your account was actually hacked, it looks like whoever was using your account did so to troll. Either way you deserve the end result because you either trolled someone or were careless with your account security

I also see very little reason for someone to hack an account just to troll. Someone can make their own newbie account to do just the same

It was in response to this, I believe (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=901237.0).

I don't know what happened, but now bitpop has removed the previous 5 negative trust (incl. the dox) but added 2 new negative trust. So if it is OP's plan, it works well.

All is OK I got my account back now.

nope. you are probably right....actually you are almost certainly right. the security log shows the password changing twice and when vod's account was recovered (the only account I know to ever to be recovered) it showed the password being reset via email address

You didn't...

LOL

#FAIL

edit: why would the "hacker" change your password but not your security question?

Also if your email was hacked why would your password show up as being changed via password instead of via email?

I am going to put my money where my mouth is.

Post an address and if I cannot get it back and if you can hack my account I will send you 1 BTC

1BTC lol, I won't lift a finger for less than 1000 BTC in escrow

Pissed me off real good. I'm leaving hacked feedback for a bit.

And he was leaving negative feedback for everyone including me first.

hahaha. Well I will put 1 BTC in escrow with bitpop if he wants to agree that he will release it to you if you can hack my account.

I would change it to that he was trolling and claimed that his account was hacked when it was clearly not hacked

If you hadn't regained your account supposedly I'd still have negative feedback and that really pisses me off. I spent years keeping my account perfect.

You also just got your throwaway hacked. Your account can no longer be trusted. Your security is shit.

(I unlocked this thread because I don't think it's resolved)

Assuming the real RiverBoatBTC is being honest (as in he isn't faking the hack, which would be easy to do), the most likely situation given the evidence is that the account was and still is compromised, and then the Riverboatbtchacked account was also compromised. He then posted here saying he recovered it to avoid the negative feedback (and that post which he deleted, at least the way he said he recovered it, is a lie as theymos pointed out).  

The current holder of the account, after getting several of his trolling posts deleted, probably decided it would be better to just post and make money from sig campaigns, instead of trolling and getting banned and it being deleted anyway.

He asked me to buy his account.

That explains it a bit better than using it for sig campaigns.

I told him no because of the potential liability that it could have gotten banned from his trolling spree

Wow, great service you're running there, informing the admin about all the accounts you don't buy I see. I'll be telling everyone to stay away.

That account wasn't hacked anymore btw, me and the original owner had come to an agreement that I could keep it. You could've sent a warning about the spam before banning too.

My message serves as a warning to anyone potentially wanting to buy your account that the ownership may be put into question sometime in the future.

If badbears logic is correct then the real owners computer is probably infected with password (and probably Bitcoin) stealing malware so even a signed message would probably not be sufficient to prove ownership

Is  BitMiningInvestments (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=63487) an alt of RiverBoat's hacker? I got three random negative trusts from RiverBoatBTChacked (for supposedly getting Riverboat banned), from syscoin-videopr (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=399058) (for using my alts to scam - which is not true - he is clearly an alt of the hacker because he posted in the scam accusation thread saying that BitPop scammed) and from BitMiningInvestments (for selling a supposedly hacked account - which is not true - I have never even dealt with him).

Seems very possible, one is brand new and inactive and the other is an inactive newbie.

Riverboat, what is your new account name? 

And who is under control of RiverboatBTC account now.

Can any of you please contact or PM me.

Bringing this back up so it may be seen.

Can either parties please contact me.

I'm sorry but I'm thinking your story is not credible, sound like you're bipolar, since you wrote: "me and the original owner had come to an agreement that I could keep it." Really not credible! In real life such an Agreement means you surrender to hacker demands usually involving
some bucks (or maybe BTC), so why making the OP and involving Admins & community to have back your account for free if you were willing pay the hacker? Not credible at all. A better excuse would be you claiming to be a bipolar subject and provide medical evidence of it.


I second BadBear statement.
