    My accounts were compromised and continue being targeted


    A few of my accounts email, bank... were hacked. Ever since I've upgraded to password manager and updated all my passwords. My Microsoft account seem to be ok because I changed password in time but when I go to My Sign-ins I see multiple sign-in attempts from all over the world. They're all unsuccessful and I do have a secure password now but I still worry that my account is being targeted. Anything else I can do on my part?

    :)

    My Microsoft Account is compromised

    My Microsoft Account is compromised. Recently I have found out that somebody is trying to access my data. This person created a Microsoft account on another computer and is tracking my moves using browsing history. Please suggest a way to delete all my
    accounts and log-ins
