I am intrigued by the possibility of your account being hacked. The forum is recently under "attack" of hacker silently co-living with the real owner, where they didn't hold it for ransom or change the credentials so the owner can't access it, they move under the radar by not touching anything and execute their action. One of the recent case is
asking for a loan.
If you claimed that you never send a PM yet your account got banned for phishing PM... can you check your IP log as per
Despairo suggested? Through
https://bitcointalk.org/myips.php?I am fascinated by the hacker too as he really had a bad strategy. My account is inactive from past some time and not a good target.
Also, I did check the IP logs and I very less logs recorded in past month and no wired IP logs as I can see at the end of the month. But, I did got an email on 24/12/23 about my password being changed by an wired IP. I checked it on internet an it shows to be located in UK. Not sure if I can post the IP here, but will keep updated if I find more information.
It does appear that he can't via the screenshot provided, but not allowing people to see their outbox seems a bit weird and it's the first I've heard of it. Don't suppose it matters either as the messages were reported.
It's wired, although it is the same from as far as I can remember this forum.
Btw, it would be great if could help me with knowing exactly what type of PMs were sent from my account, if you could PM me some examples it would be an help if you already know as they were reported by someone member's.
