Sorry to derail a bit, I know it's a crime to hack any account, but is it against the rules to sell one's account?? If an account has been hacked, what are the easiest ways to find out please?

There is no doubt that this account was hacked and sold because when it woke up after three years the first post was to join in the bounties and when visiting the user's post history he used to post in the politics section more but now just one liner replies in the altcoin discussion is this not enough that account was sold?

His post quality changed a lot. I also believe that the account was hacked.
I tried to search the telegram name to find out who's using it before, but there's no result. Probably recently created.

The last Bitcoin address that he used in 2015 was 17AQrNvKbvgYf67jbK5YzNMcyGLvXhjm2G (but this is a Coinbase account if I'm correct) here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11385438.


Still no action on the account,bumping for visibility to DT members opinions on this case.

But also I would like to highlight that the account has positive feedback but it belongs to original user if the account has been hacked and sold in recent times then the chance of scam the newbie users also possible so immediate action would be appreciated.

I think it is better to red tag this account until the user of the account prove that he is the actual owner of this account by signing in the message.

We are Bitcoin!
Today I saw this account, wake up after a long time and change the email .Checked the post, from May 21, 2015 account used to business services. But after waking up, the account was registered in a bounty campaign and started spamming at altcoin.
It looks like this account has been hacked or had been sold. Someone can check

After visiting their post history, looks like the last post he made before waking up was this: Re: [BIT-X.com] Earn Bitcoins by Posting | Signature Campaign

It's hard to end up with a justification until we hear from the user. You may PM him/her to response this topic. The user has two positive DT feedback and if the current owner is not the real owner then this user can scam anyone very easily.
