My Account Was Hacked – Need Help Replacing Security Info

Hey there, EhabX gg

Did you go through the account recovery process before?

The restriction for 30 days is normal when accounts have just been recovered. The team who recover the account seem to block future updates to the security information for 30 days. However, no one should be able to change this information. Have you reset your password too?

Please can you contact Xbox Support via this link: Contact us | Xbox Support

Please use the image underneath to select the right options so you can request a call back from a Microsoft agent.





Please can you explain what has happened to them and see if they are able to do anything about this. They may be able to pass this onto the Microsoft account team.

Thanks,

Nathan

My Microsoft account got hacked. The hacker was baiting me to get him verification codes of changing the security info of my account, then got raid of my account.

He deleted the original email of my account which is "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***" then somehow changed the account email to another one named
"*** Email address is removed for privacy ***" (These info is shown in first image, check attachments).
After doing so, he got raid of all my security stuff like verify phone number and email.He was clearly hacking my account. He literally deleted my original email of this account "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***", if he is not hacking this account, he has no need to do it...

I really need help!

"My Microsoft account got hacked. The hacker was baiting me to get him verification codes of changing the security info of my account, then got raid of my account."

You didnt actually give him the verification codes did you? If so this would've been what allowed everything else that happened afterwards to occur.

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today buddy

You're going to receive extra information when the recovery process ends after this 30 days?, basically it's a link to reset your password

Once you do it, you need to sign again with the account on your Xbox

Hope it helps, if you have further questions feel free to ask

For how to behave in case of hacking check the info here: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-account/security/compromised-account-solution

Yes, user error hacked someone elses email account. I agree it was my lack of knowledge. Now, how secure is their policy again?

Anyway, emails and phones numbers are NOT needed for security. You can create a very securee policy for logging in and verifying without ANY personal info. But thats what it appears to be about. Personal info and no privacy.
