You can either pay the ransom or sign a message... There's no other way to get your account back.
Maybe the "hacker" is willing to use escrow?
That's not true, he has the password.

DO NOT PAY THE THIEF!
I have the account. Let him lock it, I think Global Mod hilariousandco can unlock it.

I have to go now, account is secure.



Now that I have more time: this is what premium_domainer posted:
Screenshot loading...
It was deleted before I could quote it, so I just have a screenshot.

Before that, BitcoinBazaar.net posted this:
Earlier screenshot loading...
It didn't show up without clicking the link.

I took the account to stop anyone else from doing it. Now let's see if it gets locked within 2 weeks.



On March 11, 2018, I helped OP to sign a message. I still have the private key, so I can sign one again:

Staked address: 14KTahF8SyH4ZBrBiNrYL8V9BXb7A6TL2p (archived).

Signed message:

Today is July 12, 2018. I (LoyceV) took ownership of account premium_domainer (u=361655) when the hacker posted the password. This account was hacked and BitcoinBazaar.net has been trying to regain access since January 10, 2018. Full thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2721567.0.
I'll give the account back to the OP of this thread (BitcoinBazaar.net), and request all red trust to be removed.
Special request to hilariousandco: if this account gets locked within 2 weeks from now, can you please unlock it again?
