I'm typing this from a different account. A hacker got into the email and used it to add their email to my Microsoft account and take mine off, leaving me with no way to recover my account, I have a lot of value on that account and would really like to have it returned. "The following security info was recently added to the Microsoft account (their email)"
"The following security info was recently deleted from the Microsoft account (my email)"
Under it it gives an option to Review Recent Activity, but I have to log into the account I lost access to, to view it, I have no way to take my account back since they removed my email logging in. please say there is some way to get my account back?
Using account.live doesn't to recover account work because they've changed all the relevant details of my account
