My DA got hacked!!!

Hello there, everyone!
The (REAL) J.C. Solis here.
I guess, if you have or haven't heard the news, but my old DA account was hacked. And now, I've lost almost all the progress I've made on there. Don't worry, though, I just lost the account, but nothing valuable like banking info or private emails. That, for the most part, is still intact.
But damn, if this isn't a real fine fucking mess I'm in right now.
Let me tell you guys what happened:
I was contacted by a user who tried to impersonate the name of well-known deviant on the site (even though it wasn't him and was just a duplicate account). The real guy just confirmed that it wasn't him. He's been through enough with people bombarding him with questions about these recent phishing schemes - but the hacker is still out there, trying to find vulnerable whom to steal from.
Anyways, push comes to shove, the above noted user notified me that they accidentally reported my account to DA (Yes, I did just happen to fall for that old scam) and that it was in danger of being terminated. Well, I made the bright idea of trying to contact the so-called "DA Support Team Member" via discord. No ,My discord hasn't been hacked, but the hacker made contact to me through it, and they did their damn best to try and convince me to believe them.
In the end, tho, I found the profile a bit to fishy when they said that they wanted to verify my banking info. And that was when I knew that something was up. They said that $20,000 worth of fraudulent money was tied to my account, which I guess was a tactic used to scare me. It didn't, and instead made me even more suspicious. When I contacted a friend, they immediately told me that the same thing happened to him, so I tied two-and-two together, told the so-called DA Associate to eat shit and left him.
But by that point, the damage was already done. They had managed to dupe me out of my old DA account, and now it's a lost cause.
For now, I just want to rebuild. If I can gain access to my old account, then all the better. But if not, then at the very least I don't want it to hurt anyone else. I petitioned DA to either return it to me or to destroy it, to make sure that it doesn't harm anyone anymore.
I made a lot of friends and memories on that old account. But if it means risking putting others in danger, then I'd rather have it obliterated if it means that others get hurt.
I'll start from the ground up again. I'll repost my work. I'll do everything in my power to restore my honor and good name. And I will do everything I can to let everyone know that J.C. Solis is back!
But, one thing that no hacker can ever steal from me is my writing talent, and I promise to my DA followers that I will be back, and with a vengeance.
For now, though, just leave me be. I have to rebuild. Either I end up with my old account restored, or I torch it to the ground. Either way, what's done is done. I won't feel any more anxiety than need be.
Thank you all for your support over these years, and here's hoping that I can rebuild...
Sincerely.
Justin
