^^ I can easily proove its my account. What i need is to get the attention of a mod so they can disable the account until my proof is confirmed and the account is recovered.

If you can prove it's your account please do so. I'm not exactly sure what disabling the account will do - anyway regardless, the most a mod could do for you is to ban the account in question for a period of time.

It looks like this user is trying to steal an account with zero proof of anything. If he had signed a message then theymos would have reset the ~~password~~ email for him so he can reset his password.

This is a new low for scammers.

I must say, given that the style of writing of your account has shifted a lot since (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=87896;sa=showPosts;start=80) I would consider you rather suspicious. Any explanation for that?

I do not have an explanation that I am willing to share publicly, however I do have timing and blockchain proof that I do in fact own this account that I am willing to share with theymos or any other global moderator that asks. I could also give proof to a very trusted member of this forum subject to my desecration however they would likely need to be on an escrow list and even then it would not be everyone that meets this criteria (I have no way of proving it to them but can give an explanation - I do have the ability to prove that I own this account to a global moderator as I can give them PM #s that show proof).

EDIT: I think there is a good reason that Theymos has not reset the email for this person (AFAIK this is not something he does publicly but if he had received a signed message and looked into the account he would likely see the evidence himself).

EDIT: (separate issue - same edit) I had sent bayuo a PM over 7 hours ago, asking him what he is doing and have not received a response as of yet.

Theymos and now BadBear may compare the IP range of the current owner with the IP range of the owner 2 years back. The same IP range may get compared to the IP range of the new claimant for independent verification.

p.s. There are downsides of this if any of the claimants demand that they have used TOR.

So expanding on that. It's probably a good idea to login at least a few times with your real ip address? Can we get any conformation from staff if they check ip logs in case of hacked accounts.
