I went to log in to my account, and my password didn't work. I used my security question and got in. My entire account was emptied. No folders, no emails, nothing except email I'd received in the last 12 hours. I changed my password, and went to my alternate email address to enter the code they sent. I noticed the alt email address on file was not mine. I changed the alt email again, I go to the alternate email account (which I never use) and I have two emails from the previous night requesting password changes and including the security code, so someone obviously went in and changed everything last night. I changed the password for this second email account.
I have a few questions: First, the alt email on file is not mine - it's obviously the hacker's email. Can I trace this since it won't show me all of the characters? Also, is there any way to retrieve all of the deleted content. I'm very upset as I had a ton of emails I needed to keep. Could they have forwarded my entire inbox and do they now have all of my personal information???? I'm very worried. I used this same password for lots of sites (stupid, I know) and they will find them all since I keep track of my purchases in this account. Please tell me what I need to do. I also need this other email to be removed from my account since Hotmail says it will keep it for 30 days.
