  1. Account Hijack


    Recently I reset my pc, and along with resetting my pc, my microsoft email was changed to a random russian inbox that I have no control of whatsoever. I lost multiple accounts. The old email was *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. I cant reset it with account recovery because it says the email doesnt exist, it doesnt because it was changed. I need help logging back into the account and updating it so it doesnt get hacked.

    :)
