    I suspect someone hacked into my Minecraft Account, how do I remove them?


    In 2017, I purchased the PC version of Minecraft from Mojang, used my email address to log in and setup an ID .

    When I migrated from Mojang to Microsoft Platform a while back, I played for a while without any issues.

    For years I played with my daughter who went to college last year. We stopped playing for about a year. Now that she came home for the summer, I tried to log in to my account and found that under my email address there are now two IDs. One is new and unfamiliar, and another is my old migrated ID.

    Sensing that my account may be compromised, I changed my password. I cannot however remove the suspect ID. I see that I had the option on the screen and tried to make my old ID as the active account, but it did not work and instead asked me to sign in again which brings me back to the starting point with the suspect ID as the active ID.

    Please help me remove the suspect ID and replace it with my old ID, which I see on the screen but unable to access it.

    Minecraft is so special to my daughter and I, we spent hundreds if not thousands of hours building together. I don't want to lose everything we have worked for together.

    Thank you!

    :)

    Hacked, gamertag changed, name invalid

    Thanks for the response!

    So I'll be able to get my tag back once the UA lockdown is over?

    If spaces and capitalization do not create a unique gamertag then how did someone get do ug since I have had the name Doug for a lot longer?

    It kills me that I have to lose my tag because someone hacked my account.

    Also, considering the name do ug was made the same day my tag was hacked it may be safe to assume that that person is at the very least suspect.

    in call of duty ever happened to you that the cheater deranked you or froze your account and you cannot play multiplayer?

    If someone you suspect is hacking or cheater and they attempt to contact you, I would leave the game session and block and report them to prevent any further problems. It rarely happens but when it does, they usually try to get a reaction out of you in
    order for them to do anything to your account or worse.

    If someone took my microsoft/minecraft token how do I remove them from my account?

    Hi, my name is Tadeu, I'm an independent consultant and a Microsoft Xbox user just like you.

    I'm here to help.

    I hope everything is going well and thank you for reaching out.

    This support is intended to answer questions about the use and configuration of devices.

    I'm sorry you're going through this issue.

    Unfortunately, there's no one here in the community who can disable an account login, as we're just members and players like you.

    But may I ask if this is a Microsoft account login you're using in your Minecraft launcher, or is it still a Mojang account? For a Microsoft account, you can try to recover your account through the https://account.live.com/acsr page if you lose access to your account.

    For a Mojang account, it would be best to submit a ticket to the Minecraft support page at https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/request... to report the theft of your account's login token and see if they can do anything about it.

    If you're using a Microsoft account and your information has been hacked or changed, try contacting an Xbox representative here on this page to see if they can look into your account in more detail. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us

    Please note that this is a public forum only. I will respond as soon as possible, and apologize in advance for any delay in response. I am simply a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others. I am not an employee of Microsoft.

    Best regards.
