    If you're having trouble accessing an account linked to an authenticator app and you don't remember the email associated with that account, here are some steps you can take:

    1. Check for Account Recovery Options: Many services offer account recovery options that may allow you to recover your account using other information, such as a phone number or security questions.
    2. Contact Support: If you cannot recover your account through the usual methods, consider reaching out to the support team of the service (in this case, Activision). They may have procedures in place to help you regain access to your account.
    3. Use Backup Codes: If you had previously set up backup codes for your authenticator app, you can use those to access your account.
    4. Authenticator App Notifications: If you have access to the authenticator app, check if you can receive notifications or approve sign-in requests, which might help you log in without needing the email.
    5. Reset MFA: If you are unable to access the authenticator app, you may need to request a reset of the multi-factor authentication (MFA) settings through the support team of the service you are trying to access.

    Make sure to provide as much information as possible to support to verify your identity and expedite the recovery process.
