You can verify signed messages too if you have blockchain.info wallet otherwise brainwallet.org is the best way IMO

Download brain wallet

Open index.html, go to verify tab, copy paste the signed message. It would give confirmation of successful verification.

Well normally you will be required to sign a message when selling an account.
Anyway, signing a message depends on what wallet you're using.
Just search for "wallet_name sign message"
Example if you're using the classic bitcoin core:
