I'm getting a few codes minute for the last hour or so.  I've checked to see if someone was accessing my account and there was no evidence of it.  I'm receiving texts from a handful of numbers and i don't want to block them in since i do need to get verification code from time to time, and the number i get the code from varies.

    I have reset my password for Microsoft account. 

    But each time I log in, I receive a message someone else has claimmed my phone number. It Is a hacking trying every time I log in in each of my 2 email accounts. I know my passwords. I can log in to Hotmail email but how can I fix this issue with an automatic phone number of mine, connected to my two factor authentication, being claimed by an entity each time I log out and log in in each email account. This claiming phone number request of mine is happening every time with no exception. I have phoned Microsoft Portugal and was not able to talk with an human person. I have been hacked and am under attack by Google Inc, since I have deleted already 2 Google accounts forever. NEED PROTECTION. HAD TO ORDER MY PERSONAL DOMAIN NAME DELETED sirbarrilaro.com and Google Inc created a password to enter in my portable computer. Google Inc. Created a password on my Canon camera and now, none of my 14 memory cards are accepted. Google Inc, since I have deleted my Google Account is using all ways at their service to prevent me logging in every account I have. As I said : at Microsoft Hotmail I know my password but each time I log in, it says my own phone number was claimmed by someone else and I know it is Google. My complaint to the Diap of coimbra /  Portugal has been accepted and today, 19 th, April 2021,my case was delivered to attouney General. But I don't want to have to claim my own phone number, each time I log in in each outlook email account. It seems that if I sue Google Inc as I intend to, it will take many many years and if Microsoft will not contact me, by someone human, I WILL COMMIT SUICIDE. I SWEAR!
