    Account phished, cannot recover as acsr states it no longer exists


    Hi all,

    Reaching out on behalf of a younger family member who's account has been compromised by a phishing attack to their email address (via minecraft).

    We have successfully saved their email address (not microsoft) however their microsoft account has not been as lucky. It appears the attacker has accessed their microsoft account and removed their recovery information/migrated to a new email address (outlook). Thankfully because of the person's age, there are no financials lost other than products attached to the account.

    When filling out the acsr we cannot progress as the following error appears: "Try entering your Microsoft account again. We don't recognize this one."

    Wondering what other options we can try? We have the xbox username of the account which allowed us to determine that the account information had been changed but at this point I am stuck.

    If we cannot recover the account, is there a way to recover the account's purchases (Minecraft haha) or do we just have to accept the account as stolen and move forward.

    :)

    Hey, Beth!

    Thank you for contacting us and welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    My name is Darhyl. I'm an Independent Advisor and I will do my best to help you sort this out.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing any trouble right now. No worries, I'm here to help you.

    You've got nothing to worry, there is still a way for you to recover the account and that is by contacting Microsoft Xbox Support as they have the tools to this case to the Account Escalation Team and recover the hacked account.

    We do not have the tools here on our end to escalate the case since we are Independent Advisors.

    But no worries! I can reroute you now to Microsoft Xbox Support to make sure they can proceed with your account recovery process as soon as possible.

    Thank you so much for your time. I hope you have a great day!

    Hello Beth KF,

    We hope you are doing well. Thank you for posting in Xbox Forums.

    We understand that you are trying to recover the account of a family member as it had been compromised. We know how important it is for you to access the account especially as it is linked to Minecraft. Just to set your expectations, the Microsoft account is managed by a fully automated server and we don't have manual access to it. Microsoft takes the security and privacy of our customers very seriously. We are committed to protecting your personal information, and the careful account recovery process is designed to protect you from possible malicious activity. Please allow me to do the best I can to help you recover your account.

    ACSR, indeed may not be the best option for the case of your family member, however, this form is helpful for everyone that has issues like forgotten password.

    I know how critical it is for you to be able to access this account. We will share to you a support article that should be able to give you handful of advice as we, advocates, does not have any tools to recover any Microsoft (Xbox) account. The system will verify the information that only the user or account owner can supply.

    To begin the account recovery, we can suggest is that you follow the page's steps by clicking the link below. The compromised Microsoft account can only be recovered in this manner. There is an added way of assistance on this page where you can contact live support though this tool.

    Account recovery is in your hands, we hope you will be able to access it back.
