Verified, and I've removed my red tag. I've left a neutral tag to confirm it's back to it's owner.

For the record: those are not mine so I 'd like to ask some moderator to kindly delete those as well.
If the above doesn't suffice, you can click Report to moderator and shortly ask to delete it because it was posted by a hacker

UPDATE:
After wasting a lot of time deleting awful messages (mostly on Altcoins board) I was able to get rid of all those crappy posts. However, I came across to a pair of topics started by the spammer that I'm unable to erase. Those are the following:

Can you sign another message, including today's date?
You may also want to delete all posts that you didn't make, to prevent being blamed for plagiarism later on.

Sure, here you are:

On regard of the other, staff already replied me saying that unfortunately there is no easy way to delete posts and threads. They said that maybe there will be such feature when the new forum software is ready.
Sadly it is not possible to select a recovery point in time to get back to normal prior the hack... So I 'll be wasting my time deleting unwanted posts manually.
They also stated that is not possible merging two accounts. So I'm gonna live with both of them linked to the same address I guess.

UPDATE:
 
Response received from Bitcointalk account recovery team on 10th January asking for a new signed message + accessing a bitcointalk link which seems to be invalid.
I already replied to them with the info requested. Waiting.

According to the new streamlined process announced by Theymos, I sent an email to the address described here with the required data. Will wait for replies and update here accordingly.

Just be patient, it will only take 1-2 years most likely.  Maybe 5 years if your unlucky.  Patience is a virtue.

I also sent a message to @CobraBitcoin on twitter but he also ignored it, so I must assume no one cares.

I was hoping you would be wrong Lucius, but you were completely right. Thank you for at least correcting my expectations. Cyrus did not respond in two weeks time and now I'm going to try to send a signed message to Theymos. I'm a little less optimistic about my chances of recovering my account now, but as long as there's a chance I will keep trying.

I PM'ed again @cyrus & @theymos, another 2 weeks passed being ignored. Meanwhile spammer is posting crap with my stolen account.

Unfortunately for you this procedure may take months, situation is not good regarding recovering stolen/hacked accounts and theymos admitted it - but he is working on something which will allow much easier recovering of hacked accounts, but this will also take some time (few months).

Did you try to contact person who bought your account and present the facts from this thread? It is unlikely to succeed, but I know one case when person who bought stolen account was returned that account to the right owner.

I feel your pain. I am in the same situation. I also have had my account compromised. I have sent a message to Cyrus as instructed in this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/recovering-hacked-accounts-or-accounts-with-lost-passwords-497545 and if he doesn't respond in 2 weeks I will then message Theymos with a signed message using my bitcoin address I posted and still have access to.

My account is being used right now to likely abuse bounty programs... the person who took over the account doesn't seem to use English as a first language, but is rather Eastern European. They did not edit any of my earlier posts oddly, but it's obvious when they started to do this. It is an unfortunate situation. I will follow your thread in hopes that you get your account back, and I will let you know if Cyrus or Theymos respond to me as well. Cheer up, I'm sure they will help eventually.

I really like the idea that Theymos will implement something new to combat this issue. I'm excited to see what he comes up with.

Will see where it goes. So far nobody notice it, is a major concern so action should be taken as soon as possible in order to preserve a healthy community.
Can you tell us more about the Theymos "project" / "new idea" ? for me are just rumors... I mean where are the updates?
