How can my account have been hacked here and the email linked to that account changed without them having access to the email account in the first place?

Is that even possible? how is it done?

theylmos  is not replying to my message
Nothing to be done now?

My guess is that they stole the saved login details or session data that was stored in your browser. That would mean they did have access to the email as well to accept the confirmation.

Not your keys, not your coins!

theylmos or whatever is not replying to my message is giving no assistance in getting my account here back?

First of all his name is "theymos", don't know if you were trying to be over smart there or really didn't know the name of the owner of this forum even after spending so much time here, considering you're who you say you are. And if you believe your account was hacked then open a thread in Meta and/or move this one there and provide proofs that you're the original owner of the account.

You don't require access to the email address to hack your account as the forum doesn't need email verification. You can use a fake or non-existent one when you sign up so must have got your pass some other way.

Your account just staked a new address.

Yes i can prove this i have access to that BTC account still.... But theymos is not replying. Is he on vacation or something perhaps?

Do any mods here have a btc address i will send a small btc from that right now and prove that i am the original cryptohunter???. I also have the beecoin communnity wallet with 8 billion coins in that was handed to me to look after. I still have the LTC  account too that i bought NXT off of from the day after the original investors got theirs and sold some for LTC.

If any mods here can get my account back i would be very grateful or please contact theymos and ask him to help me. Perhaps he gets so many messages he didn't see mine.

thanks

Hi, what does sign it mean?  

If theymos posts his btc account on here with random small amount for me to send ... i will send it from that address to prove i am the one with that btc address.

Then i get my account back.

Also to my knowledge i didn't post my account details on any phishing site. I think it maybe its because i forgot to change my details after this site got hacked.

can some more people please quote this post i made because for some reason i can not quote that post .... can some more people quote it before it gets changed thanks....

i am now signing message from that address.... meantime can as many as possible quote that message i made ...thanks


also see this post

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=345142.0

you can see i am sending 1 ltc  to the seller on that date. Surely we can use the block explorer to reveal my LTC address sending him 1LTC exactly at the time and date. So if i can demostrate i still have that LTC account too then i am 100% going to get my account back??

And the beecoin community wallet .... i still have that .

does the signed output look like this below.... this is not the correct one i changed a few bits because i dont want to post something that can get my few btc i do have in there taken out


Byjosdfasdfs9cW/CDkmckErnY6Baymqqc3Er0JNuoiaosfdasfdasfdlkPekj9GB6441zhdhdhddhd5Y0KGyWvQwanoLU=



does it look like that?? like a few mixed up letter and numbers then a / then tons more of them?? is that the kind of thing i need to post here?

that is all that is copying from the btc client when i click copy current signature.


Also if more of you could quote my post el kaka22 found that would be great i need that locked in on this forum as much as possible.


I'm going to check through all my previous cryptohunter posts and try to see if i posted any other addresses there for alt coins... .i still mostly have them all so i should be easily able to prove my id.  If any guys have a bit of spare time and you see i posted an alt address in any of my 1000's posts somewhere please immediately quote it because i really would like to get my old account back. This guy is maybe going to do a scam under my old account or i have no idea why else he would have taken it ... maybe because it is old and have 1000s posts he will use it to try a scam out. I hope not before i get this account back.

can't quote because it's locked but I can archive it -> https://archive.is/y8J4n (post #56)

update:
yes. the output looks like that. and there's no need to quote it, uneditable archive is more than enough.

cheers --Encrypted-- that is very helpful.

thanks too to everyone else trying to help me out.

Yeah i don't really use bitcoin much i mostly only have alt coins and never really do anything but mine , trade coins. So don't even know the basics at all. I mostly just collect alt coins.


am i bests to password protect my btc wallet before posting this signed message on the board or does it not matter... i mean there is just a few btc in there but still would be nice to keep them.

I going out now but back in 3 hours... i am going to post my signed message then. Hopefully someone can say if its better to password lock that btc wallet before doing a signed message.

ok thanks mate.


here is the message i wrote

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey theymos. please can you give me my cryptohunter account back as soon as possible.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=========================================================================


can anyone tell me if this worked okay?

how can i test it out?

anyone have theymos skype or other chat methods?  i was almost on legendary can't believe i have to start all over again whilst they get to turn legendary now so annoying.


another question is do you think something wrong with my hard drive? it seems the bitcoin chain from 18 weeks behind only moved to 16 weeks behind in hours and hours on my other machine?? is bitcoin slow right now or maybe it's growing in size at a very alarming rate. My hdd is only 128gb and is getting very full up now. This is getting a rather large job to start even using btc now for some new people. Days to get the chain ready to use it seems a bit off putting maybe if people dont have much patience. I know there are web wallets etc but really I lost a few alts using web wallets so I personally never trust them again after taking my coins a few times.

that's correct but use this template.
Code:
-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
My account <account> has been hacked/lost. Please reset the email to <email>. The current date is <date>.
-----BEGIN SIGNATURE-----
<insert address here>
<insert signature here>
-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Here is the unedited post where I posted that address: ...
OR
I sent that address to someone in a PM with PM ID#...

the email, timestamp and the link to your post (or the archive) is important. you can test it out by verifying it (read the "how to sign a message" thread I posted).

use electrum wallet if you don't want to download the whole blockchain.
