Its from a paper wallet, which, from what I found is very difficult. An alternative would be to sweep said wallet to a predetermined address from a moderator/trusted member and then send it back.


Edit: The new owner of my account has messaged me and is stating that he is not the hacker but bought it "the telegram" and wishes to return my account for what he bought it for, 0.08 BTC.

Just when cpfreeplz  quoted me in this thread.  I see someone gave him a negative trust with a comment left stating, "likely hacked account," which is good.

And I see the hacker deleted my post where I had my address quoted.

My hero account was hacked too and the hacker erased my address in my profile and the one I had written in a post. Here is my post where I quoted my address that the hacker just deleted!

Posting a signed message from an unedited address is the only accepted way to prove membership.
Even if you do that, the admins might take a long time to recover your account. Without that, there is no hope.
I somewhat disagree. I think that an alternative way is pretty much adequate for proving this. For example, if the user is in control of said address but does not know or is unable to sign an address, then someone could specify a fixed amount of BTC and an address to which it should be sent (from said address). This would effectively prove that the user is in control of said address, and the BTC can be returned back to them (or they could use one of their own addresses for this). I've used this method on a few occasions.


I am in control of that address, is that what I should try to do? What if I sweep the paper wallet and send the current amount on there to another wallet?

My Hero account got hacked and the password was changed Sunday night into Monday morning. I had a bitcoin address in my profile but was conveniently erased by the hacker. I posted (#506) my bitcoin address in an old thread from 2014:

Beer!

Thanks!

The problem I have is that I cant sign a message because its a paper wallet. I tried finding a way but it looks rather complicated. I sent bitcoins to it yesterday with a message but then realized I was doing it wrong and ran into a dead end.
Does anyone have any ideas to help retrieve my acct? What if I send a couple hundred dollars worth to that address, would that prove ownership?

Thanks for all your help!

fff13 is the account that was hacked and I have no control over
