I also have a similar security issue with my account (DarkStar1O9) and the user may be trying to spread malware as well from a post of his I deleted before I lost access when my email address was changed. I'll message Cyrus once I get a signed message. Does personal message receipts also count as proof of ownership?
Yes, it should do as long as an admin can verify it.
I noticed my address also got erased from my profile by the intruder or possibly forgot to add it, but I have an older message on my account from when I started here that has me posting my btc address with a
transaction link on this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1357957.msg13842699#msg13842699Also here is the message I sent to Cyrus, I'm in China and it's night time in the west so maybe he can get this later.

The main issue is I noticed he had edited one of the threads I was moderating for Novus coin and he left a malware link as a false update I missed deleting before I lost access. If the account could be locked until access is restored here that may help also from him causing further trouble. That account also moderates a larger more active thread for Inflationcoin.
