Hello mods, it appears around 2016 my account was hacked. The hacker also posted various threatening messages to other members about some kind of exploit. An example screen is attached.

SCREENSHOT


As a side note I do occasionally get random emails from a scammer that claims to have access to my account and asking for a bounty lol. Maybe it's just generic spam or it could be associated with this account.

Either way I would like to make a request to have this account deleted, ideally I would rather have the entire account nuked rather than just disabled since I have no intent on using it. FYI since logging into this account the password has been changed but I'm still not sure the hacker might still have access to my account info. Thanks in advance.

As far as I know there is no option available here to delete our accounts.Nukes are only for the newbies with extreme spams.

But there is no need for it since you already changed the password and also change email if possible and use the current recovery method if your account got locked from the old email.

There is a huge post gap of around 3 years. Can you sign a message from old bitcoin address?

Though I can see Admin notes:   Restored 2016-07-12. If you really want to get hold of your account, you can try this method.

Generate random password and change password. Log out & Delete passwords from history. Change the email too (Random)

The thing is I wasn't locked out or anything, as far as I can see there's been no action taken on this account. I was easily able to just login and start posting, I only found out about the hack when I randomly logged in and noticed the bad reputation and hackers posts.

I do worry that the hack might have been something other than just gaining p/w access, perhaps the hackers exploit is/was able to bypass whatever I have set as the password. I would def prefer the nuke option if there's the option considering I would rather not be associated with being a hacker / scammer / bad reputation and risk more privacy being leaked to the hacker. There's also the possiblity other people might message me on this account, if there's 1% chance of it still being comprimised then the hacker might use trust to scam / hack them. I don't think there's any downside to just nuking, the hacker was spamming too.

I'm unable to sign from those addresses, as you mention 3 years ago is a long time for me to be out of the game.

Just do not login if you don't like to use that account. Is not very simple? You don't need to request anyone to delete that account (although its not possible).


However, I don't see any legit point why are you thinking to delete your account. If there is something wrong on your post history then you may delete yourself. And you might edit your main post if any. If account just on your control then change pass and mail. So hackers would not able to use it anymore. I don't know why you want to give up!

Perhaps this is his real name and he doesn't want his real name associated with some garbage garbled up by some third-world shitposter.

-- I know i wouldn't, and if i were in a similar scenario, i'd definitely want to delete the account as well. (Or at the very least these religious shitposts.)
Too bad that it isn't up to me.

OP, you could change/edit all your posts with a macro or something, and then report them to a moderator. Pretty sure they'll get deleted that way. Not exactly an easy solution, but i believe there isn't really any other way.

OP if you have changed the password then possibilities are the scammer can no longer access your account unless S/he has access to your email. Since you don't what you account to be accessible anymore and the option of deleting your account isn't available then maybe writing to members of Cryptios might solve your case as they have the ability to
Cryptios:
-Main purpose is to investigate and accomplish account recoveries.
-They also have the ability to Lock accounts, if they believe it to be compromised.

Another risky solution is intentionally commiting plagiarism so your account will get banned rendering it useless but you should know you'll lose the ability to use the forum in the future so unless you intend leaving the forum for good don't used the option. (Not recommended but it'll do)

I haven't seen any option where it's possible to get the account deleted in this forum.
If i were you, i would just regain control of the account, change credentials to both a new private email no one knows and password, and I am good to go.
Then I would get time and delete all the garbage posts made by the hacker.... Problem solved.

I would even be happy just having my username changed (e.g. deadaccount123) if admins have those powers.

It seems your request has been fulfilled Smiley

You might want to remove the screenshot from the first post and perhaps lock the thread.

- Changing email address of the account to the unreal one, therefore no one can use the unreal email address to recover the account later.
this won't prevent recovering the account using the original first registered email address
cmiiw, manual recovery hacked account can be initiated by request from original email address

It seems your request has been fulfilled Smiley
unfortunately all his posts quoted by others still bear his original username Embarrassed

You might want to remove the screenshot from the first post and perhaps lock the thread.
and he needs to edit/remove a few posts that still contain his personal details
in one of his posts in lending section he listed his website, google+, and facebook account
