Same story here, my account was hacked as well. Email address had not been changed, but they did change my signature with a link in it and posted in two threads to promote two different coins. Has the database with passwords been compromised?

I can imagine all these old accounts have a relative lage amount of bitcoin and are therefore an interesting start to hjiack email accounts or read private messages to gain further access.
