How to Recover Hacked Email Accounts?

It can be a real nightmare if someone hacks and takes control of your
email account as it may contain confidential information like bank
logins, credit card details and other sensitive data. If you are one
such Internet user whose email account has been compromised, then this
post will surely help you out. In this post you will find the possible
ways and procedures to get back your hacked email account.

For Gmail:

It
can be a big disaster if your Gmail account has been compromised as it
may be associated with several services like Blogger, Analytics,
Adwords, Adsense, Orkut etc. Losing access to your Gmail account means
losing access to all the services associated it with too. Here is a
list of possible recovery actions that you can try.

Step -1:
Try resetting your password since it is the easiest way to get your
account back in action. In this process Google may ask you
to answer the secret question or may send the password reset
details to the secondary email address associated with your compromised
account. You can reset you password from the following link

If you cannot find success from the Step-1 then proceed to Step-2.

 

Step-2: Many
times the hacker will change the secret question and secondary email
address right after the account is compromised. This is the
reason for the Password Reset process to fail. If this is the case then
you need to contact the Gmail support team by filling out the account
recovery form. This form will ask you to fill out several questions
like

1. Email addresses of up to five frequently emailed contacts

2. Names of any 4 Labels that you may have created in your account

3. List of other services associated with your compromised account

4. Your last successful login date

5. Account created date

6. Last password that you remember and many more…

You need to fill out this form as
much accurately as possible. It is obvious to forget the dates of last
login, account creation and similar terms. However you need to figure
out the closest possible date/answers and fill out this form. This
is your last chance! The more accurate the information filled out in
the recovery form, the more the chances of getting your account back.
