    Unusual activity sign-in to my account, what is a potential aftermath and how to prepare?


    Long story short, someone signed in to my microsoft account as I was driving to work most likely they used a VPN but the IP address was from Russia. I didn’t check my email until I arrived to work. I always use a two factor authentication, I just changed my password. What is the potential after match to this unauthorized sign-in? This is the first time my account was accessed by someone besides me. What should I do?Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)
