Accessing, sharing, and managing documents and media within Microsoft Teams Free
Hi There,
Thanks for reaching out. I’m sorry to hear your Hotmail account was hacked that’s incredibly stressful, especially when you’ve already gone through the trouble of recovering your password, only to find strange or identical messages left behind.
When someone gains unauthorized access to an account, they often send mass messages or tamper with inbox contents. These actions can be automated or part of phishing campaigns, and unfortunately, they may leave behind a trail of suspicious emails even after you’ve secured your account.
Here’s what you can do to clean things up and make sure your account stays safe:
To Secure Your Account set your account:
Change your password again, just to be extra safe.
Turn on two-step verification at account.microsoft.com/security this adds a strong layer of protection.
Check your recent activity at account.live.com/Activity and flag anything that doesn’t look familiar.
Clean Up the Inbox
If the hacker left identical messages, it’s best to delete them and avoid clicking any links.
If you think messages were sent to your contacts, consider letting them know your account was compromised.
Report to Microsoft
You can ask Microsoft to investigate what happened:
