Please take this situation as an example and learn from it! Ensure you are always in full control of any collateral you hold, it is your responsibility!

Back story: moreia's account was placed in escrow (redsn0w's service) for a 0.8BTC loan. The email wasn't changed (redsn0w believed it was a random email), which allowed someone (supposedly the actual moreia) to reset the account's password and regain control over it, prior to the loan being paid back.

Code:
Today at 07:24:47 PM - moreia - password reset via email

 but the email was something like that : sgssdsds@hotmail.com  

That's a mistake on your part redsn0w.. Whenever you escrow an account (or anything) you must ensure it is in your FULL control.

This includes entering a valid email which you control.

I mean no offence to redsn0w by this post.
