Moderator help my bitcointalk account have been hacked

[SoYouThinkYouArePiesel]

This is what you see on the recovering hacked and lost accounts thread; "Often, you need to prove ownership of the account with a PGP or Bitcoin signature."

They say often, so I hope there will be exceptional case

Also, it's not the only address which has been posted by the account in question. The first signed message in the op is from a reply made a couple of years ago, which contains a Bitcoin address. And that Bitcoin address has been used multiple times by the account Piesel.

I have to say that it is the only accessible address by me - SoYouThinkYouArePiesel.

These are all addresses posted by piesel

One way to prove your ownership of your account is to sign a message from an address which you have posted before in the forum and is obviously yours.
The recovery team surely has some other criteria to verify the claims. For example, they can check IP logs.

Is this the only way one can verify his/her claim of an account in the forum, is there no any other way one can actually do it too asides signing a message?
If this is the most accepted and verifiable way to claim ownership of account, how is it done? A link or thread will help as a guide. Thank you.

Oh wow. What's happening here?
Mr. SoYouThinkYouArePiesel, Can you tell us if you have sold your account? No explanation, Just Yes or NO.
Of course, the recovery team knows how to deal with such cases. It may take time, but there will be a solution if you can get attention from them. Piesel shared five addresses so far. How many of them do you have access to?

[Piesel Alt]

What happens if you sell it yourself and then you try to lock the account because you still have access to everything including email because you don't really want to lose the account? Then who should we believe in each other's claims?

I believe if you are the account owner then you have access to the email address, wallet address and it is very possible to get you signed messages with it. But just one thing, what if it's actually you who sold the account and then you lock the account by resetting the password with a secret question?
IMO, only main users know about secret questions.

Then I do accept the consequence that my account will be locked forever or ban or red trust due to selling account. I guess I do not have any proof that I am not selling that account. I just suddenly came back to Bitcointalk and saw my account being used and I want to take it back.

I guess you are the hacker, so since you don't have anything to lose you want the account to remain banned. 
What a low life mentally sick person you are.

Stake your Bitcoin address here, so that you can use that for recovering your account in the case your account is hacked or you lose access to that for any reason.

Below is the guide on how you can sign a message.
How to sign a message?!

@Piesel Alt
I can't verify your message. What software do you use for signing message?

no bro, Im the true owner of the account. I just want my account back. I know you put a lot of effort on the account. But you buy the account from the unknown source and now the owner - which is me, apparently - comes to take it back. I have the oldest address of the account Piesel, which is posted on 2018: 0xc08f62f38998784cef6803006ff8c4be50326b3c and also the email.

Then this should be someone close to you, maybe try reach out to your friends who often share same system with you or could be a friend you hand your phone over to. How is that possible for a hacker to have full control over your btt account as same time with your mail.

Not really someone close. Supposing the email attached to the account isn't some throw-away email that is used only on the account, there are chances of other usages that could have lead to giving the mail off. Like from your TRC20 address presented in OP, it means OP has been about some bounties at some point and could lead to some email exposure in filling out some forms and subsequently, compromise.

It's good enough the mail address wasn't swapped and even better now, the account has been locked due to recovery via secret question so, you stand a better cjnace at unlocking by following the processes as given above by _Blackstar in proving yourself and when that is done successfully, you do your hit to ensure privacy and security by changing important access points @OP.

I noticed an unusual activities on my account Piesel yesterday when i tried to log in, my account password have been charged and the hacker made a post in the football transfer speculation thread in gambling section immediately after he gain access.

It's a matter of a few hours. So How can we understand that you are not that hacker and making drama? (don't mind please)

So the drama is already started what I have guessed at the beginning. Now it's really hard to find the real owner of this account. What are you thinking? For me, there is something hidden in both of them. They are not sharing the things that they (both) know. For example, buy / selling or any other deal.
