Title: [for deletion] The account concerned is already locked so this is redundant

Out of respect for the man, would a mod please lock Hal Finney's forum account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2436) which is showing as being last active March 29th 2017, so it is has clearly been compromised.

The date of activity appears consistent with the plethora of hacked forum accounts being hijacked to shill for scam ICOs in the last months and, while any scumbag attempting to use it would be swiftly called out, we don't want them changing any of Hal's posts for shits, giggles, or nefarious purposes.
