Before I left the scene of the crime I left my calling sign... But on the news the next morning all that was left was the following:



 .Iaaabmmnt


Which seems to be what I wrote, but not how I wrote it!



belacgjfdikh


And this... this appeared under it as well, and I surely didn't write that!




Who am I?




Oh crap! Someone figured out my identity! My Stack Exchange profile has been compromised!
Was this their plan all along?!

          If we reorder the characters alphabetically in the second string and use the same reordering on the first string (including spaces), it reads "I am batman."
          This is an example of a transposition cipher.

            @MikeTheLiar you can see from how it's presented, 'b' and 'e' correspond to spaces, 'l' corresponds to '.', 'a' to 'I', etc. The corresponding characters are vertically displaced from each other.
