Windows 10: Email account hacked yesterday and lost all emails.

My email account was hacked yesterday and all my emails are gone. I was doing online live chat with agent last night and had given approval for quick assist until the connection dropped and lost the online chat. Today I've been waiting almost 2 hours to speak to online agent to help recover my emails if they can. I can't even get a live chat today, coming up saying waiting time 19 minutes with no reply, sat another hour with still no reply. Can anyone recommend what I can do. I really need the emails as quite a lot of them are very important. Thanks in advance.

email account hacked. please help

I have a yahoo email account that seems to be hacked. Following are hacking activities I have noticed.

1) Spam emails being sent from my account to my account and my recovery email account.
2) Recent emails in inbox are missing
3) New emails in deleted mails folder

I have reset passwords for both my email account and recovery email account and also re-installed my mac but still spam emails are being sent from my account to my account and my recovery email account.

My mac was not even turned on when those emails were being sent. No one else knows my password. I do access mail from my iphone and ipad too.

Its my primary email account please help.

Thanks

 

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.

Don't think you can if they were deleted from your email account and are not in your trash folder. Try contacting Yahoo, explain what happened, and see what they can do or suggest you do.
