Someone has successfully hacked my account and changed my password so I can not log in.
Is there anything I can do?

I reported your post to the moderators. I figured this would be the quickest way to get the best solution to your situation.
Otherwise, my only idea would be to sign up for a new account, and go to the bottom right of the welcome screen, and click on "Support".
Good luck man! I hope you didn't have to many btcs in there.
Do you think it's someone you know? Friend or relative who'd be able to possibly guess your password?
Or are you just locked out??
Did you check the obvious things like the screen said (Congrats you are using Tor)
And you are not using a cap where you should be using lower case?
Sometimes obvious mistakes are misinterpreted as being hacked.
Also could try having a friend you trust on here, try to PM you with a benign question, like "Hey are you interested in those free samples?"
Just some random thoughts.
Hope I helped you in some way.
Good Luck Man,
Peace

I can see the moderator report however there is nothing I can do from my end, you need to report it to SR support.
Hope it works out ok and you do not have a lot of BTC in your account.

Reiterating what samesamebutdifferent said, you'll need to report it to SR Support because there's nothing we can do here. Best of luck!

Send SR support a message from a new account.
If you can give them a list of previous transactions including order/withdrawals, the dates of these transactions, and the amounts. they MIGHT let you back into the account with this info

Is it possible to hack someone`s account by guessing their pin?
I used to just use 1234 as my pin thinking it made no difference and I wonder if there's other people other there as stupid as me.

A pin does not have to be a 4 digit code. I think the name should be change from PIN to something like, Transaction Password, Withdrawal Code, ETC. Too many people use numbers o make their pin when it can be any Letter (upper and lower case) or number.
My pin is about 12 characters long

Thanks for the replies.
I put my sign info into a phishing site but put in the wrong pin by accident.
I can't find the site to put out a warning though.
I have contacted SR support but no reply so far.
I placed two orders which I reckon have been cancelled and the BTC stolen it was only 1.80 BTC but I am still pissed.

Man that really sucks, glad much wasn't taken.

Fuck. I can't login either. Right when they added the "pin" to the login screen. I have less than a coin in there but I just received a fairly valuable package and can't finalize!! I'll try the new account & support thing. Any other ideas?
Edit: Problem solved. No help needed, maybe just building up my self esteem after making such an ass of myself... only joking.

Edit: nevermind, new account are temporarily disabled. Can someone send this to the moderators?
Mate I am no expert but the 'log in' screen that asks for your pin is the scam site and if you log in there, they have all your info and your fucked.

Yep. Thanks a fucking million mate. I had just updated tor so it wiped my bookmarks. I went through the hidden wiki link and that's why it was bogus. DO NOT USE THE HIDDEN WIKI LINK.
Thanks to you I realized the problem and got there in time to change info. You saved me some coin man. Cant thank you enough. Im keeping the link in a .txt file from here on out. +1,000 if I could!

Always back-up your browser bookmarks before updating your TOR bundle!
