How To Recover Your Hacked MEGA Account

If you're putting your most important files in a cloud storage service, it can be devastating to realize your . Regaining access can be time-consuming, frustrating, and frightening as the hackers do what they will with the information they find.

If your password hasn't been changed, you may be able to quickly gain access to your account and change your password to prevent the hacker from doing any more damage. However, if the hackers have already reset your password, getting back in can take a lot longer. Don't waste time with endless research, attempted password resets, and trying to contact the company. Instead, DoNotPay can make it easier for you to regain access to a hacked account, whether it's or Facebook, Netflix, Instagram, Hotmail, Steam, Amazon, PayPal, or your bank account.

How to Know if Your MEGA Account Was Hacked

Even though the files you upload are protected by user-controlled encryption, hackers may access your email address, IP address, payment information, and more, since those items are stored without being encrypted. Of course, hackers might not be as interested in stealing your information as they are in hiding their own illegal files in your account. Here are some signs that your MEGA account was hacked:

  • You notice files that you didn't place there
  • You're missing certain files
  • Your password no longer works
  • You receive an email notice from MEGA saying your password has been changed, but you didn't change it

How to Regain Access to Your Hacked MEGA Account On Your Own

If you think someone else has been accessing your MEGA account, you should change your password immediately:

  1. Go to your account panel: open the Menu dropdown and click "My Account"
  2. Go to Settings and click the "Security" tab
  3. Enter your new password in the Change Password box
  4. Click "Change Password" to save your new password
  5. You'll receive an email confirmation of the change

If you've forgotten your password or if it's been changed, you can only reset it if you're already logged in and have the Recovery Key. If not, you have two choices:

  1. Open a new account with a different email address
  2. Reset your existing account

Neither solution gives you access to your old files. The account recovery process will allow you to use the same email for the account, but it will be empty. The files in your first account will be parked. If you happen to remember your old password within 60 days, you can contact support@mega.nz and they may be able to restore your parked contents.

If you have questions, you can always contact support@mega.nz. The trouble is that you may have to wait days for a reply, and the reply may not offer the solution you're looking for. When you're locked out of your account and need help getting back in, DoNotPay is on the job.
