  1. Instagram account hacked. Email changed and not recieving codes from phone number or email.


    I recently had my Instagram account hacked and my email was changed to something different. I have tried resetting the password multiple times, following the steps that their support has described but nothing is working. I have tried signing in through a code that I received through text but after that they ask for another code through an authentication app but I never had one set up. I have been trying to get the app to send a code to an email I have access to but they need to verify it by sending a code but I am not receiving it. I have checked my spam and my junk and there isn't anything. I

  2. email account hacked. please help

    Also may I suggest you change email accounts to one of the following.....

    Gmail
    Outlook

    The reason is they both use "Step two verification". This style of verification means even if a hacker gets your password they cannot log in to your account. You see every time someone try's to log in that hasn't been verified you will get a text or a phone call giving you a final code to log in. Its very easy and simple to setup also. The great thing is once you setup your Email application with a specific "application password" from that account you never have to log in again AND your account is protected from being logged in from foreign entities.

    I like the new outlook personally however Gmail is also damn good. Gmail also has an IP tracker that allows you to see WHERE the account has been logged in from. Anyway let us know if you wanna change over and have any questions. We will be happy to help and welcome to TPU!

    Unauthorized Emails from my account?

    It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

    Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.

    Hacked email

    Thank you for this very clear explanation. Unfortunately, I do not have the kind of specialized hardware or exchange account to do what you suggest.

    I find the subject interesting and what you wrote has added to my knowledge on the matter.

    Regards.
