It seems the scammer who made this request took control of the account but didn't change the password. Then about 2 hours later BTCBLOGGER changed the password and locked the scammer out:

C' Mon, really? You really think that's what happened? Why don't you think he would do this when this is something he'd exactly do? He has a history of pretending to do the right thing in public but behind the scenes he's trying to rob people himself. What sort of hacker doesn't change passwords? That's the first thing you do. Anyone including the original owner can then just re log in but that person who did just happens to be btcblogger?
From what I'm assuming happened was that the hacker who took the passwords from the cloudminr.io leak, used the account to post the loan request, and perhaps didn't change the password, then BTCBLOGGER logged in and changed the password and protected it.
It is also possible that the hacker who posted the request was BTCBLOGGER himself, and then later on he might have changed the password. But I personally don't think, he would have done this because he was the one who protected the account and later on helped me to regain the control.
Why would he do it? To make out like he's the good guy when he's not. He's the exact opposite and he's done this sort of stuff before. He was pretending to be the good guy by trying to get a user to return funds he stole but what he didn't mention was he was trying to extort and blackmail that scammer himself in private using the personal info he had on him and the threat of going to the police with it. That sound like an alturistic act to you?
