Yeah, seriously. I remember a time when account recovery was next to impossible if you got hacked, but things seem to have gotten easier in the past few years.

He might be lucky that the hacker didn't change his account email ^{[or the new owner didn't change it]} so he might still be able to reset his password via e-mail. This user-generated recovery does not involve the account recovery team as the account owner only resets the password via a link sent to the e-mail to reset the password. But it will be very difficult if the hacker has changed the account e-mail because the account recovery must involve the recovery team, and the only way to get the account back is to prove it by signing bitcoin message.

Imagine if a user never used a bitcoin address anywhere on this forum or he forgot about the wallet he was using. It will definitely make it even more difficult to get his account back ^{[perhaps not even anymore]} because the recovery team won't trust him as easily as one might think.

jkoil did not use BTC address on this forum. Only official address of jkoil is the one, which was set to him in NEM ICO. And from that address/wallet was sent a signed message to recoveries_*@bitcointalk.org 10 days ago.

Seems to be a difficult case ...
