The hacker has changes the email to some temporary email "[email protected]" MikeMirzayanov Una_Shem

As for proofs: 1) i have first of all attached the burner mail which the hacker has put. 2) Screenshot of my official my in which i have recieved the notifications for all previous contests and pings for messages, which i didnt get for this contest 3) a weird ip has logged in my codeforces profile from russia or somewhere as you can see my regular ip is India. 4) a seperate mail showing my email name to confirm the mails are for this username only

MikeMirzayanov, please enable the feature in the website which asks for verification code whenever someone tries to change his/her email id (or something like 2 steps verification like google account). This can prevent account from being hacked.

    till they fix this problem, I think hiding the email address from your profile will make you safe

Can confirm that the account belongs to the person writing the blog because I know them personally.
