Yup same stuff happening to me. You can literally see that the hacker changed the email yet Microsoft claims they can't do anything. Sound more like lazy cybersecurity on their side.
Microsoft Account Hacked and Email has been changed to ru*****@rambler.ru

Hey, i really don't know if this is the right area to talk about this, this may take abit of explanation. I came back to my computer to find that my normal email that is connected to my microsoft account i use to access my windows is not what it is but instead was ru*****@rambler.ru now at that moment i did see the actual email address but i was scared that i got hacked i went straight into my administrator and deleted that user which in reality is the user i use every day to do my school work and everything else, i know this was a stupid decision and i hate myself for it but i did made a system restore before i did that and got my user account back but because my windows account was connected to my microsoft account and because they have changed the email to whatever it is ru*****@rambler.ru i cannot do anything, i have looked at the fourms but they need the acutal full email to even begin to recover if its possible. Im sorry if my grammer or how i sentenced things was bad, not the best at english but please is there any way to retrieve my account back?

2022-10-19T04:48:20+00:00 I have come really far now. Im in the making of a account transaktion. I wrote to Microsoft Support. And basically they are helping me to make a new account and then move over everything that was on the hacked account. All i need to do is to prove im me. Just sign in a form in word and thats it.
