It might be some bug as Rizzrack mention too, hoping it will be clear to us how it happen. This users are valuable to the forum as theymos mentioned on one of his threads that handles the account recovery system.
FYI: The humans handling the new account recoveries system which was implemented late last year are a company that Cyrus created called
Cryptios. alanst, 3dOOm, and Rizzrack -- the "mysterious newbies" who some people noticed -- are three of their employees. They've been doing a great job.
Although Cyrus created the company with bitcointalk.org in mind as their first customer, they are accepting additional customers. Their main specialization right now is high-security, social-engineering-proof customer support & community moderation.
