I just realized I haven't posted on the thread the buyer listed in the digital goods section when I saw it. But here is an conversation after he handed me the account and I haven't paid yet. There is more PM he sent me in my actual btc talk account, but I decide to protect that one. Here is picture proof when I actually bought the account from this person and did not hack it. http://postimg.org/image/omt1kgthn/
I didn't pay him everything at once, that's why you can see, he says waiting for the 0.05 btc tonight, that's only the first part of the payment.
Hope this is enough proof for this account. As you even said, the posts Kapz786 was doing before I purchased it, was all on selling this account, so. Hope you can understand me

So you confirm you believe this account was stolen? Even if this wasn't hacked by you but by someone else if it was stolen then you shouldn't have it. I wish sellingbtctalk posted too, the fact he doesn't seems to confirm this version.

However one possibility could be that OP sold his account himself and is now trying to recover it. I guess we'll never know, people should really not buy accounts without a signed message as proof of ownership.

OP do you have any idea how your account was hacked? Did it have a very weak password? Do you suspect you got malware?
Clint how much did you pay for the account in total? 0.15BTC as initially asked? Can you post the TX ids?

I have multiple people such as dogedigital and monbux that can confirm I have done trades on this forum for amounts in the hundreds of $$ as recent as early this year. I am really not interested in ripping someone off for a measly 0.15 BTC.

I believe the account to have been compromised from the forum hack and nothing else.

Your working on the assumption that the admins actually want to help you get your account back.

Mine was hacked and then sold and so far the admins haven't helped at all after multiple PM's and a thread on the topic

Hi, I am very sorry for what has happened. But this is the true story and you have to believe me, I will gather further evidence including my private messages and posts on thread with the seller later. So about 2 weeks ago, I saw a thread in the digital goods section selling a senior account by the name of sellingbtctalk. So I contacted him because I was interested, and he did not provide me any signed messages, I wasn't very experienced in how btc account really worked so I bought it anyways. I gave him everything I had in my 2 wallets. I did not realize this account was hacked, so I started joining campaigns and posting on this forum. You guys have to believe me, I will provide evidence for you to believe me. But this seller often sells btctalk accounts on this forum. Please understand me guys, that's all I'm asking from you.  
Here was his thread I saw, and got the account from: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1101362.msg11724697#msg11724697

That's a great story - now when can I get my HACKED account back from this thief

The guy you bought the account of joined 2 months ago and his ONLY posts are in regards to the sale of BTCTalk accounts. Pretty obvious to me.

Hmm, have you seen any precedent to this?
Do the admins support someone who can prove that they have bought the account over someone who can prove that they originally owned the account?
I know that they are okay with account transfers, but I don't know to what extent they enforce account transfers.
Do you have any experience with admins stepping in and helping an account buyer over the original account owner?

I think that the account was hacked, though this can never be known for certain.

The IP that posted the loan request from yussuf89's account also posted this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=960603.0
Someone with the same IP was trying to sell another account here, presumably hacked:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=925024.0

yussuf89's password wasn't changed/reset recently except for when marcotheminer did it, so the attacker must have somehow gotten his password. Keylogger or phishing, maybe.

Zeki's IP matches yussuf89.

Since ownership of the account is contested, I'm thinking that I should not restore the account and let people give trust ratings depending on what happens. For example, if marcotheminer needs to eat the entire cost of this when he's mostly not at fault, some people might want to give yussuf89 negative feedback.

Me? I'm not solidly in any camp, there are good arguments to be made all around.

BadBear are you able to help me with this?

This account was marked as possibly sold. Are you the new owner or the old one trying to take it back?

I never sold the account, I'd be very surprised if you could find a thread etc of me trying to sell it prior to the password change.

It was most likely hacked and sold. I hope this information is enough. Haven't heard from an admin yet.

I contacted him twice a couple of days ago no response but noticed he has been active - must just be really busy

I wont include email address here to reset to for security reasons.
