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?

    Exactly the same !!

    Microsoft will eventually have to respond to all these stolen users...

    We've all spent a lot of money and staying in this situation is unacceptable.

    Omg I have this exact same problem. My account got stolen a month ago, and I have been worried sick since then. I know the stress you guys are going through. And microsoft is useless, they don't do anything. I had so much progress on the account. Does anyone know how to get the email of the hacker changed it to? On top of all this my other microsoft account got permanetly suspended for literally no reason. And the problem is that it's the administrator account of my pc. So I'm also worried about that.

    This is really scary that this many people have got this problem. I also think that there is more people that havent reached this thred. So how do we solve this issue, because it seems like MS will not help. Have had my account or i mean "my old acc" for over 12 years. So i have spent alot of hours and money on this MS account. Everything is tied to your email in the end. And if thats get stolen your fu**ed. I Can still search on my DP-name on like xbox and find my name with all my progress. I still have another acc with the exact same mail and everything. It just seems like they have swopped the email and took the account. Sorry for bad english (not my main, and im really mad and upset)

    1. How did this happend?
    2. Why this it happend
    3. Who are they/what company
    4. What do they do
    5. How and why cant MS help us, they have to see that it was our acc.

    WE SHOULD START A GROUP or something!!

    *HELP*
