Title: (!)My account restored after 18 months of being hacked(!)
Post by: serejandmyself on February 04, 2019, 03:09:14 PM
Hey all,

Please be aware, that over the past 18 months or so I did not have access to my account. In fact, the logo still showing the old "hacked" logo.

AFAIK, there is no way to delete old messages that have been posted by my account, during the stolen period.

I apologize for any inconvenience caused by this to anyone.

My account is now back in my hands, thanks to the BTT team!

PS. still waiting for the logo to change (quarkchain, really?)

PPS. If anyone requires further proof that I am me. Please feel welcome to contact me via PM or publicly (via this topic) and I will consider other ways of proving that I am me (!), if the BTT team actions weren't enough. (Please see my profiles on SM channels and GitHub for any updates about my account).

PPS. Please consider this topic to be valid information about my account being returned to me.

BR

Welcome back :)

This is not the right board to stake btc addresses or PgP key.
Use this thread to stake your PGP key : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1159946.0
You can also ameliorate this by staking your bitcoin address too, use this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.0

Thanks! Will stake it there too. This is more of an informatory post I guess =) (the PGP was just there as proof)

Welcome back from jail. ;D
that was a year and a half while your account was being used misused. Just being curious though... Why didn't you report the hack here so that it could have at least been tagged until you regain control?
Hope the hacker didn't use it to scam people given it's a high ranking account.

It is to say that he is a lucky, and the policy never returned to his account, Now pray to God, that's good for you, best of luck mate.

You should be able to manually go into each post and delete the post. This may take a while since you cannot do it in bulk. Also, if the person started the thread, all you can do is edit the post to be like a period, lock the thread and move it to archive board. It may be worth your while to clean house when you can find time. I would hate for your account to get accidentally banned for plagiarism or something.

It can be done pretty fast:
1. Go to your history (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=109699;sa=showPosts) in a new browser window
2. Click your middle mouse button on all posts you want to delete (20 times per history page)
3. CTRL-SHIFT-TAB to the last tab, click your middle mouse button on the "delete" button, CTRL-SHIFT-TAB to the next tab
4. Repeat this 20 times
5. When you're back at your history, go to the next page, right-click the tab and select "Close tabs to the right".
Writing it down takes longer than doing it, you should be able to clean up 500 posts in 20 minutes.

I've archived your profile (https://archive.is/BToOk) to keep track of your progress.
