问题 提问于 2013年8月1日
My Hotmail ID was recently compromised and i did not remember the security questions for recovery.
My alternate ID was changed by the person who did this. I managed to recover my mail id by providing the information asked for recovery. But i was unable to update the mail Id which doesn't belong to me and is added in my security info as my alternate
Email id to recover if the password is lost.
Hotmail prevents me to change the information stating that "We have a waiting period for the updates to take effect. On 31/8/2013, we'll delete your old security info:
**Removed for security purposes**
Once this is deleted, you'll be able to verify your account with info you have access to. If you didn't make the updates, or if you still have access to the above info, cancel
the updates."
My query is if I change my current password will the updation link go to the email id and my account being on risk of being compromised again to the email id of the unknown person in the above mentioned message?
The other person still has access to my email id as my language was changed to some foreign language instead of English after i had it recovered back.
Please reply urgently .
Thanks
