It happens that I had stored the password for the account but as username not the username but the email, for the username had a different password which wasn't correct.

Better restart your knowledge with cryptocurrencies. If I were you 5 years ago, I might be a Legendary member for now. But for now, (as suggested by most users) learn to stake publicly your addresses and learn how to sign it, so once such accidents would happen again, you can easily have your account back without further suspicion. There are numerous articles and threads, both here in the forum and across the internet, of on how to sign your Bitcoin address. Goodluck for your fresh restart in this forum! Happy posting!!  Grin

Enjoy your time in the community. 5 years is a long time and bitcoin price now is over $28k.

Make sure you have a signed bitcoin address or PGP signed with your public key so in the future you do not risk your account to be taken over by the hackers. If they do then you can always claim back your account by proving the ownership from the signed bitcoin address or PGP key.

Use a bitcoin address that has no connection and will never receive any fund even accidentally if this address receive any fund then use those fund through a mixer. Your privacy is safe.

Thank you but I want to keep my bitcoin address private for now.
Well that was quick … How did you recover it so quickly ? (mucho más rápido de lo habitual)

It doesn't have to be one with any prior TX. I provided one that has had 0 TX (and it will stay that way). Alternatively, you can sing a PGP message for future reference, as stated here: Recovering hacked/lost accounts.

Edit:
According to the seclog, you changed your password yourself, so you still has control over it:
Code:
•  Today at 08:46:52 PM - sblade - password changed
•  Today at 08:43:05 PM - sblade - woke up

Already got my account back thank you!

Glad you got it back. I recommend staking your Bitcoin address in this thread to make proving identity easier in future:
