I've received a PM from OP, asking if I can help get his account back. I'll respond here: I'm not an Admin, so I can't do anything.

I can however check my own records: The account Quite was registered on Feb 5, 2014, and I can confirm it only had 15 posts on Oct 18, 2016. The profile didn't show an addy at that time.
Looking into the post history, there are no posts between Feb 25, 2014 and May 5, 2017. The posts, however, changed from long posts in a language that I can't read, to spammy oneliners that look like its only meant to rank up the account. The 3 year posting gap makes me wonder if you are the original account owner. A staked address should be old, and I doubt Admins will accept a quite recent archived address as proof of ownership.

Really comes down to getting sucked in by a phishing link or having not changed your password after one of the database hacks.
With a decent password, the database hack isn't a problem. Only the easy passwords can be brute forced.

Firstly, thank you.

I understand your doubts. But I am the first and only owner of the account. Look, it's just a screenshot of what I have when I have 46 messages. My name is as a user. In addition, the BTC address is the same as the 46th message. I've been keeping the same BTC address since the first day.



I also posted my first 15 posts in 2014, the domain name is Bus Ticket, which is on the website. I still own the property.

You can refer to this thread:
Recovering hacked accounts or accounts with lost passwords

Moreover, I highly recommend also this another thread: Legendary account got hacked - 5 months gone - Signed message included.  There are ongoing discussions on how to recover a hacked account on this thread.  This will help you to find steps moving forward to recover your account.

I hope this helps.

My account has been hacked at May 17. I did what I have to do to get back. I have singed a message with my Bitcoin adress which I posted to account recovery topic. Huh
I don't know how, my account was hacked Sad
I already blocked the account and sent to Cyrus a signed message, I hope it will be resolved soon.
The account should be locked now and I hope the hacker will do no harm, I opened this thread mainly to try to understand how I was hacked.


Here the signed message:
-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
My account Quite has been hacked/lost. Please reset the email to [email protected]. The current date is 21.06.2018.
-----BEGIN SIGNATURE-----
18rHTUS5VfsBupSqXqxoj5nPwsWweRoE2f
ILLelKV90R40Ul0sP/f2MMYhbP7z6osqfm0Z5v6A3wx1M9uB7wQ2dCCStqoEhQ5ciipaOaAPT4bCCCIvqzQpwcI=
-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Here is the unedited post where I posted that address: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/quite-239265   (Bitcoin address: 18rHTUS5VfsBupSqXqxoj5nPwsWweRoE2f)

Evidence:
My BTC address; On the Bitcointalk.org profile, you can see the "Bitcoin address" section of the Google WebCache resource below. April 17, 2018, 12:57:15 AM
https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:BgnTzLCuLUIJ:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php%3Faction%3Dprofile%3Bu%3D239265+&cd=1&hl=tr&ct=clnk&gl=tr

Again, to verify the BTC address in my profile; If I check my profile at https://web.archive.org, we can see that my BTC address appears on Bitcoin address on November 26, 2017, 01:26:19 PM.
