Thanks. Emailed and they didn't give a clear answer. There is no debate about this - it is my account.
I think the answer was clear enough. Our aim is to always provide the accounts back to their original owners. So if a user goes through the recovery process successfully and proves that he is the account creator, the account is returned to them.
It's my account, it doesn't belong to the original owner, they tricked the mods. You have no point.
