Hi,
on may 16th my account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=231031 ) was hacked (password and email changed), I immediately locked the account.

I don't have a saved pm or post but I checked my user profile page on web.archive (link: https://web.archive.org/web/20140411201026/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=231031 );
in 2014 I was using a btc address as signature ( 18Yd65Y5VwUuvcyHGaHHYTmnfPAfsZfToe ) and I still have access to it.
I already sent a pm to Cyrus and Theymos but...I'm not sure if this proof is enough, what do you guys think?

Suggestion: add your email address inside the message (if it's for privacy then don't post signed message here) and send directly to Cyrus and Theymos for verification.

This way they can do the job in one go, otherwise they might be receiving 100s of messages and finding your particular with correct email will be time consuming and chances of missing the one golden opportunity will increase and they will ignore the message.

At least you've lock your account so the hacker can't use your account.

About account recovery, it's usually more than  6 month to get notice so all you can wait is wait
