What To Do If Your Crunchyroll Account Has Been Hacked

Your boss lets you go on vacation. Your kids are out of school. You just want to watch the fourth season of My Hero Academia while enjoying a salty snack, but find your Crunchyroll account hacked instead. To recover your hacked account, you can submit a help request through Crunchyroll and hope for the best, or let DoNotPay recover your account for you.

How to Tell If Your Crunchyroll Account Was Hacked

Sometimes, you don't find a Crunchyroll account hacked because you can't log in. Instead, you identify your account was hacked due to strange account activity. For instance, when you log into your account, Space Patrol Luluco or Nisekoi - False Love starts playing because it was the last thing "you" were watching, but you have never watched a romantic anime in your life.

If you suspect your Crunchyroll account was hacked due to viewing recommendations that don't make sense, you can check your viewing history. If it looks like you've watched shows you've never seen before, there is a good chance that your Crunchyroll account has been hacked.

You can also check your login history to determine whether you have been hacked or not. If you notice a record of logging in that you know wasn't you, change your password immediately.

What To Do If Your Crunchyroll Password Has Been Changed

Unfortunately, there's not a lot you can do to protect yourself in the future if your Crunchyroll password has been changed. Crunchyroll doesn't offer 2FA, but there are a couple of steps you can take to protect yourself:

• When you recover your hacked account, use a random password that is unique to Crunchyroll
• Set up payments through PayPal

Why You Should Use PayPal If You Discover Your Crunchyroll Account Hacked

If you discover that your Crunchyroll account is hacked, you should switch your payment method to PayPal because:

• PayPal offers excellent protection regarding fraudulent charges.
• You probably have all of your other bills drafted from the account used to pay your Crunchyroll bill. You don't want someone to access your bank or credit card information because they hacked your Crunchyroll account.

What Else You Can Do If Your Crunchyroll Password Is Changed

When you can't access your Crunchyroll account because your account was hacked, and you're not logged in on another device, you will need to reset your password to access your account again. Unfortunately, this is a complicated, time-consuming task if you do it on your own.

If you don't have the time or patience for such a tedious task, you can use DNP to reset your password in six simple steps:

1. Go to the Recover Passwords product on DoNotPay and select the type of account you are trying to recover, such as email, streaming service, social media, gaming, eCommerce, and more.
2. Tell us more about your account, including usernames and associated emails and phone numbers.
3. Help us verify your account ownership by entering the date you first created the account when you last logged in, and any payment methods saved under the account.
4. Upload photographic evidence if you have any that can help prove your account ownership.
5. Enter any last known or previously used passwords to help verify your identity.
6. Enter your contact information and submit the task!
