PM me your bitcoin address so you can recover your account if it's hacked.

The quotes below explain how to recover your account if it's hacked, but you need to have posted a bitcoin address you control in either a pm, or a post here. Also you can use a bitcoin address if its associated with your profile.

I think it's against the forum rules to spam threads with addresses, so pm me a bitcoin address you control, and make a note of the pm ID because you will also need that to prove your ownership of our account.

Disclaimer

I cannot promise I will reply if I get overwhelmed with pms and you contact me requesting your pm ID. Please make a note of any pm ID after sending me a pm containing a bitcoin address.

Q: My account was hacked! What do I do?
A: See this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0. When PMing the signed message, send it in [code ][/code ] brackets (just without the space at the end). For example,

Code:
-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
My account has been hacked/lost. Please reset the email to . The current date is .
-----BEGIN SIGNATURE-----


-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Here is the unedited post where I posted that address: ...
OR
I sent that address to someone in a PM with PM ID#...

If you don't know how to sign a message, google for some tutorials with terms like: "signing messages with ". For example, "signing messages with bitcoin-qt".
