  1. My microsoft account was hacked , the email associated with the account was changed


    Hi,

    My little brother's account was broken into and we didn't get any type of notification of email changes to the account , he was just kicked out of it , this is another account I am writing from .

    I have been trying to get help via the 'Contact us' page and the page keeps failing to sent the request for a call with a real agent.

    What is there to do to get the account back? I have made some purchases on it and I know the card and details , username and original email , but I can't use this information anywhere to get it back.

    :)

    Hello Stefan, this is Manuela!. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

    I'm sorry to hear that your brother's account was compromised. In situations like this, the recommended action is trying to recover the account by using the Microsoft interactive guide below

    As a reminder, please notice that no one at Microsoft can change account details, this is for security policies

    I'm sorry to hear that your Microsoft account has been hacked. The first thing you should do is visit the Microsoft account recovery webpage and follow the steps to recover your account https://account.live.com/acsr.

    You will be prompted to provide information such as your Microsoft account email address or phone number, a recovery email address or phone number if you have one, and any other relevant information that can help authenticate your identity.

    Once you have completed the account recovery process and regained access to your Microsoft account, I would strongly suggest updating your account password to something strong and unique to prevent any future hacking attempts.

    It's also a good idea to enable two-factor authentication on your Microsoft account for added security. This will require you to enter a code sent to your phone or email in addition to your password when logging in.

    Xbox Profile transfer

    Hi TK,

    Technically transfers cannot be do but you can change the email address associated with a microsoft account.

    In order to associate the gamertag with another account you will need to create a whole account with an email address and then do the following to associate the gamertag to that account. How
    to change the email address associated with your Microsoft account
