What to Do if Your Xbox Account Is Hacked?

As mentioned earlier, learning your Xbox account was hacked can be devastating. The thought of a stranger going through your personal information and changing your settings and passwords can send you into a panic. However, with quick action, you can recover your account and prevent the loss of your crucial data. The following is a quick DIY method to recover a hacked Xbox account.

1. Go to the Microsoft website and navigate to compromised accounts.
2. Select whether you can log in to your account or not. If you can access your account, select yes.
3. If you can't log in to your account, select no. Ideally, if you can't access the account, it is either you have forgotten your password or the hacker changed it.
4. After selecting no, you will be redirected to another page where you are instructed to change your password on the "Why can't I sign in?" screen.
5. A code will be sent to your email or phone if either is registered to the account. Use the code to reset your password, so you access your account.
6. If you can't use either option, you will be prompted to enter a new email address with an account recovery form. In the form, answer as many questions about your account and login information as possible before you obtain a password recovery email.
7. If you had answered yes in step 2, you would log in to your account. You will find that Microsoft had already locked in because they detected suspicious activity.
8. At this point, get a security code sent to your email address or phone number to unlock your account and change the password, review recent activity, and fix anything in your account that the hacker could have changed, including billing information and personal data.
9. If none of the options above works, you'll need to contact Microsoft directly through Xbox support, using this link Beta Support Xbox.
