How to recover hacked minecraft account

Chadi El Yaagoubi · Apr 12, 2023

My Minecraft account was hacked through malware in my pc, I opened the minecraft launcher and I was signed out of my account, when i clicked login it showed me, presumably, the hacker's email adress along with "we've sent [the hacker's email adress] a code check your email to log in", my microsoft account that was linked to my minecraft account was deleted (I tried logging into it and it said account doesn't exist), and it's email adress had the microsoft email adress blocked so that i wasn't notified about it's deletion (which i believe was done by the hacker), and the password was changed. If there is any way to recover my account please let me know, i can provide proof of the game's purchase (I redeemed it using a code gifted by my friend), I also tried the recovery form but microsoft didn't respond (yes I waited atleast 24 hours).

P.S: I was hacked on multiple platforms (google, discord and instagram, microsoft minecraft account) but I was able to recover all of my accounts except for the minecraft one (I sign into minecraft with my now deleted microsoft account)

Will I be able to recover anything that was purchased that was in a hacked account? A minecraft purcahse for example.

If you can recover the hacked account, then yes. Otherwise no since everything is tied to the account that originally purchased it and nothing is transferable between accounts.

If you migrated Minecraft to your Microsoft account, and it was this account that was hacked, it will be the one you have to try to recover.

Hi there Xiaoli S.

I am Lumie and I would love to assist you today.

I am so sorry you are having issues with a compromised account. Please keep in mind, this is a user forum, we are not Microsoft.

The transaction ID cannot be used in recovery, you must use the tools provided by Microsoft.

You can go to this link: [support.microsoft.com/home/contact] and input 'Account Access' and then go to 'Contact Support'.

Once you're there, you can go to 'Microsoft 365 and Office' > 'Manage Account Security' and you will be able to talk to a support agent.

The first idea to find your email is to directly log into your account with your phone number.

You can find your username using this recovery tool: [https://account.live.com/username/recover] by inputting related data.

If this does not work, you can try to look for email receipts on alternative accounts or find accounts you made be logged into on different services.

Once you have found the new alias, you can recover the account using the Account Recovery Form: https://account.live.com/acsr]

Make sure to complete it in an area you would usually access your account from. It is important to be consistent with this form, you can complete the form twice a day everyday until your regain access to your account. Repeating this will increase your odds of recovery.

Here are more tips to follow with the form: [https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/b19c02d1-a782-dee6-93c3-dc8113b20c42]

I hope this helps!

Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. -Lumie

Thanks but it still doesn't solve my problem because there isn't a way to contact microsoft directly about this, in the link included with your post, there was only the option to get community help.
