Why was my account banned?

[JanVanHellsing]

Hi mods,

recently my account got banned, without a message or warning or anything else. Out of the blue.
I thought this was a mistake and sent and email to the address in the message I received.
There was no answer or any explanation and so I sent another email and again no response.

There is absolutely nothing that I was doing wrong, I am not even doing signature campaigns.

Thanks for looking into this.

Looks like your accounts email was changed recently. To me, this is an indication of an account theft attempt or this account was sold to you. In this case, an email is sent to the seller/victim notifying him that him email was changed. That email contains a link for him to lock the account. So the guy who sold you the account locked it afterwards and will now attempt to regain access to it.

Have you ever changed your password after bitcoin's database got leaked about 1 year ago ?


Check your last registered email , if someone change the password , there will be notification in your inbox !
I can say something is not right

And the most important part,
Can you prove your account ownership by doing sign message ?

all forum results will not go wrong, there may be some wrong activities but you do not realize it.
moving to a new account might be better, and struggling to get back on track. to start again successfully
this might be useful
thank you

It's locked for being PossiblyCompromised. Did you try reset the details via email? Do you have a signed message? If so, follow this:

I can unlock it if you still have access to it and can prove the account is yours as detailed above.

forum policy will not arbitrarily respond to a problem. so the thing that happened to you, maybe there are mistakes that are not clearly known by you.

check again.

It has been locked because I changed the password? Since when is it against the forum rules to change password? It's even officially allowed to purchase accounts so why lock an account for that reason? I don't have this signed message that you referred to but I can tell you when I changed the password and also know the new and the old password. Also before I sent merit to a user who posted something inspiring in the politics section. Why would someone with sinister intentions do that? I also offered my help to other users to identify potential scammers.

Please restore the account again, it is not compromised!

What account are you talking about? They're not locked for merely changing the password but there could be a number of reasons for why it was locked. I can't do anything about it either way so you'll have to contact an admin about it.
