    How do I unlink my phone number and email from a hacked account?


    I was recently hacked where my email & password was changed and Microsoft was really no help with me recovering my account. I decide to make a new account but my current phone number is still connected to my old account. I can’t even make a new account under my old email because it says that I don’t have an existing account wih that email and when I try to create one, it says I may already have an account with the email.. I’m willing to leave behind my old Microsoft account, I just want to have my actual information unlinked and linked to my new account or have my old account back. Honestl

    :)

    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!
