Hi Tyson. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

Since the account's email has been changed, I'm afraid it will no longer be possible to recover the account. I apologise for any inconvenience caused by this.

> Considering this also happens to others I would assume you would have done something by now but instead you are being utterly useless.

It is your responsibility to keep your account information safe, secure and up to date to prevent hackers from breaching into your account. Microsoft takes security very seriously and does everything they can to keep your data safe, but they have no control over how you choose to protect your account. If someone managed to get enough information to get into your account, that is no fault of Microsoft as they did not provide that information to others.

For future reference, here are some tips to keep your account safe and secure: https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/628538c2-7006-33bb-5ef4-c917657362b9

We are sorry, please contact support for assistance:

These didn't work since the hacker changed the email and password. So I cannot change or reset neither.

Hi Alex! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Microsoft account being compromised.
