I don't know whether it was a wise decision but I sent a PM to theymos using a new acc/ .



That'll certainly get his attention. Perhaps not in the way you want though.  Cheesy

Thanks Badbear that is all what I was asking for  Although I verified the message before sending it to theymos but I did it manually on blockchain by entering data in 3 fields [btc address, Message , Sign] , I didn't knew I have to verify the whole message at once , my bad . And yeah I can understand this issue has a low priority on theymos's list as he has to deal with lots of other much more complicated/important stuff..!
again Thanks.

I checked the messages you sent me, both of them fail to verify, including the one you sent me this morning. You broke it by adding extraneous spaces, <> symbols, and/or bold tags. I took the information provided and made the message myself properly, and it verifies fine, I sent you the correctly formatted message, though I don't know if theymos is going to bother reading your messages now.

If you format the message properly, you should be able to copy the entire message directly and verify it. I would recommend everyone test your own message before sending it. https://brainwallet.github.io/#verify If you copy your message there, and nothing happens when you hit verify, your message is not correct. I don't recommend you use their tool to sign though.

This is a properly formatted signed message, and can be copied directly to verification field and will pass, try it yourself.

Still struggling to get back my account  Angry

I can see your main account is logged in just now. https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/amitrwt-239496
Did you get it back, or is it the hacker?
Naa that's not me .  and that's the problem, if someone else uses that acc/ or sells it to someone with bad intentions ...! I again request mods to pls take a look in this issue as I'm trying to recover my account from 12 days and sent 5 bitcoin signed Pm's to theymos to prove my authenticity ,  I don't know what else i have to do..!

What about sending the "recover account PM" to badbear as well?
It won't help you recover the account, but badbear should be able to confirm you are the original account owner and give the account a negative trust for "possibly hacked" to prevent scams.
I sent a PM to badbear few days ago... but If you say I'll do it again..! I don't know whether he was able to check my last PM or not I never got any acknowledgement.

If he doesn't answer after a couple days, send it again, it probably got buried/lost. I'll sometimes leave a pm for later then forget about it when something else comes up, or it gets buried in a flood of reported pms. A mention it's the 2nd/3rd/4th time you've sent may help, but don't be a douche about it.
A PM from your side to theymos might help.
I Just sent theymos one more PM on same Subject . I can understand how difficult it is to manage something like bitcointalk and handle all the queries ..!

Sometimes it takes theymos a while to respond  Undecided
Ok I can wait if that's what is required,  I hope eventually it all gets shorted out, before something bad happens ..!

I'm just wondering how it all happened, on the night of 20th june my acc/ was working without any problem and the next morning it says I entered a wrong password , today I sent a PM to myself to test whether I get a notification on my mialing acc/ or not but I didn't got any, so it is clear that my email is not in batabase anymore ..! how is it possible there are no signs that its been hacked because no one tried to login into my acc/ after 20th.
what I'm trying to say is if there is any such vulnerability that someone might exploit in future...

Theymos is active most of the times on this forum..! and I can understand he got a lot to do apart from reassigning my acc/ a mailing address. but take a look into it if you get some time , thanks

Contact theymos with a signed message showing your new recovery email/date from an address you have previously used through that account (and with a link as well to make it smoother).

If you check the above posts, you should see that:
1. OP knew that after deadley and Maged's help. (Post 2, 4)
2. He learned how to sign message after a little bit discussion with us. (Post 11)
3. He has sent the PM with everything needed already. (Post 16)
