Windows 10: How can I get my account back after a hacker changed the email and the password?

My account has been compromised, and the hacker changed my email and password. I will provide any details I need to in order to recover my account. I tried using the account recover form, and that did not work, so I came here in hopes to find an actual Microsoft employee to evaluate my ownership of the account. Please help me

:)

 

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.

 

Hacker changed my password and email address to my main account.

My account very recently got hacked. The hacker changed my password and before I could change it back they had already changed the email attached to it.

The hacker had changed my email to: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

I have been trying to contact microsoft via Gmail in which I dont believe they have a support email so I have resorted to posting on here.

Thanks.
