November 13th I was trying to recover my account, but did not receive email.
I did not receive any notification about email change. I did not change email.
Have you ever used the same password for your e-mail account that you had been using in the past on this forum? (not including the password you set in June)... or have you always had different passwords on each?
I had different password. I think. This is not my primary email a read every day. Time to change my email password :-)
Just want to rule out the possibility of a recent hack/leak and trying to determine if there is a possibility your e-mail account itself was compromised, due to the 2015 hack. My thought being that someone has cracked your password from before 2015. Assuming the e-mail & forum account had the same password <2015, and you have kept your e-mail password the same, the password could be used to get into your e-mail and utilize the reset link.
Bitcointalk and my secondary email address was low level priority. I have never used them for money purposes.
Just to stay anonymous. Weak passwords (9-12 chars is not so weak), but did not give them too much attention.
