No, because it's possible to recover accounts by signing a recovery message using a bitcoin address that was used earlier. see: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/recovering-hacked-accounts-or-accounts-with-lost-passwords-497545

Apart from that, it is possible the account was used for spamming and it is very close to getting banned.

Though the sale of accounts is allowed, sold accounts are generally untrusted once they're found out. Theymos wouldn't recover an account for someone on that reason alone, but if it was claimed to be hacked or stolen and the seller followed the recovery process correctly then they'd get it back and you'd be out of luck.

The best way to gain forum ranks, activity, and reputation is of course to earn it yourself.

First of all, you're posting in the wrong section.

But anyway, I wouldn't really recommend to buy an account. But if you've already made your mind, it's really hard to recover an account after changing the password and security question. Theymos won't bother doing so unless it's a serious case.

Hey there BTC Talk.

Would it be safe buying accounts, obviously via Escrow.
If the Escrow PMs Theymos would the account be recoverable, because I'm about to buy one soon.

Please tell me!
