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

    Hotmail. The account showed hundreds of emails went out to all my contacts. The email said 'Can I ask for a. Favor' then another email said 'thanks I need to get an apple gift card for my cousin who has colon cancer'

    The message replied Ray

    The first message was from my email account. The second was from an outlook account.

    1. These mails are in your Sent folder?
    2. If you can login to the account, change the password and choose a strong one. https://www.security.org/how-secure-is-my-password/

    If you can login to the account, change the password to a password. Turning on two step verification will add additional security.

    Wenn Sie sich beim Konto anmelden können, ändern Sie das Passwort in ein Passwort. Durch die Aktivierung der Bestätigung in zwei Schritten wird die Sicherheit erhöht.

    ive changed my password and Ive also introduced two step verification, but Im more concerned that whoever took my identity is using it in an outlook email account as *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Is there any way of taking this email account down.

    From another post:
    Please confirm if Microsoft can take the outlook account down.
