Hi,
I cannot access my Microsoft 365 account anymore.
I think my account has been hacked because when I try recovering the password, the email displayed is apparently from a Czech Republic domain (.cz). However, I have never had any .cz email.
I would like to please help me recover my Microsoft account access, so that I can get back to using it.
Thank you for your support.
Kind regards
Umberto

    1. When trying to sign-in at https://account.microsoft.com are you told that the account doesn't exist?

    If so, the hijacker created a new alias and deleted the original address. There is no possibility whatsoever of recovering the account.

    1. Otherwise...

    The account recovery form is the only way to recover this account, unless #1 is true.

    1. And since people ask...
      Microsoft Support contacted via phone or chat won't be able to help you with this.

    1. Sir, Madam, I am the account holder. I am the one who reported attempts to break into my e-mail by people I do not know who are sending blackmails about paying money to retrieve the e-mail, which indicates that they are a fraud who wants to blackmail me. After activating the protection by Microsoft, no one dared to enter

    2. . But I am surprised that this person who says that he was unable to access the e-mail is a fraud, as I have been the owner of the e-mail for years. . I am the one who pays Microsoft regarding my subscription to Microsoft Office.

    1. These were scam attempts and you are now blocking or ignoring them. That's what you should be doing.
    2. I'm not sure what this means. If you can login to the account and if there is no sign that anyone else can login to the account, I don't see that there's a problem.
