The evidence that I am the original owner is pretty strong in that I have access to the original email address that my account was attached to for 3 years until it was hacked last week.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Read the sticky, it lays out what is accepted as proof.

If you can't provide a signature from a staked address, either publicly or via a personal message then you have a very little chance of getting the account back. I imagine some evidence could be accepted if it's from a renowned account such as a person who owns a popular exchange etc because that might be a little easier to verify than a random website, or email.

You can contact cyrus if your evidence and see if it gets accepted, but in all likely hood it will be ignored due to there being no 'accepted' proof.
