I think my account has been hacked

I opened Skype on my android phone, it open as normal, logged me in, I saw who was online, then about 5 seconds later it automatically logged itself out.  The app didn't crash or anything, it just returned to the login screen.
So I proceeded to log in with my details and it said that they weren't recognised. I'm 100% confident I entered them correctly.
So I decided to log in on my Windows 7 PC in case it was a problem with the android app.  It logged me in automatically, I saw my contacts online, they saw me online, then boom... I was back at the log in screen! It had logged me out again! So I entered my details as usual and it said that it didn't recognise them.
I can't think of any other reason for this than someone hacked my accout, changed my password and changed my email address so I couldn't reset the password.  Is there anyway I can reclaim my account?

  • I have a catch 22 situation. My Apple ID is set up but I forgot my password when I ask for an email link it never arrives. I think my account has been hacked, my security questions, the answers say they are wrong. I want to delete it, can't without passwo

    Continued..my security answers have been changed, I think ID hacked, email and sec answers changed. How do I delete it? By the way it is not this ID, I had to set up a new one to use this site....

    Did he have find my iPhone enabled under that iCloud account?  If so, add the account back to his phone.  Then in the iCloud account settings, disable find my iPhone first (you will be prompted for your password), then remove the account.
    Now you can create or add a new iCloud account to it using his own AppleID.
    Alternatively, you could log in to your www.icloud.com account in a web browser.  Using the find my iPhone app there, remove his iPhone from your list of associated devices (he will have to power his iPhone off for you to do that).
    After his iPhone is set up for his own iCloud account, on your iPhone, go to
    settings->iCoud->Storage & Backup->Manage Storage and delete his iPhone's backup file to make more room on your own iCloud storage account.

  • Think my account has been Hacked

    I just went to reset my password and there were several accounts associated with my email. Non of which were actualy mine. How is this possible?

    Hi, Jermerqua,
    What NormanM was pointing you to is the FAQ article explaining how to contact Skype Customer Service, which is what you need to do in order to un-link these accounts from your e-mail address.
    In a lot more words:  here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Skype is aware of continuing problems with the website when contacting their customer service agents. If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser and - important! - choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented. Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • What do I do if I think my Iphone has been hacked?

    I think my iphone has been hacked ... how can I know for sure... I believe they may have gotten my contacts.... who knows what else?

    I was also hacked this week on my 4S.  As improbable as everyone at Apple may say, it did happen.  I am pretty good with technology.  My kids had my iPhone 7 years old and they went to a website that without my knowing, allowed so done to take control of my device.  I had the phone on charging and connected via wifi.  I heard in the middle of the night someone talking and then a fax machine but thought I was dreaming. I turned over and went back to sleep not looking at my phone. 
    Next morning I wake up and the screen is on maps?  I panicked and realized a bunch of SMS txts and also some emails went out. In checking my call log, bingo... A bunch of calls over a 4 hour period.  I started to delete anything suspect but really didn't know what to do. I then called all my banks and credit card accounts to out them on high alert.
    I called apple and they begin to say that this is a software glitch, clearly they were not listening.  I went to the apple store and spoke with a supposed genius who suggested the same thing.  Finally, I explained it to a level 2 person and they suggested wiping the phone clean by resetting it and reinstalling everything fresh.  I still have no way of knowing what was accessed or downloaded and more scary, neither does apple.
    When I asked if there was an app, they couldn't suggest anything saying that by default the iPhone is secure and encrypted yet here I am with a remote accessed situation on my hands.
    Any ideas... Anyone?

  • HT201303 Hi my iTunes account has been hacked by someone in Canada, they downloaded a game called "Game of War fire age" the game is free but the in app purchases are up to £69.99 each time for gold I am very concerned about the security of ITunes at this

    My iTunes account has been hacked via Canada according to an email from apple some one in china tried a few weeks ago but failed.
    I changed my password a couple time now but it seems that someone has hacked it and downloaded a free game called "game of war fire age" as I said its a free game but the in app purchases can be up to £69.99 per purchase of gold?
    This is a worrying thought that my account has been compromised and I am unsure of what to do about it.
    I would like to open a new account but would I be able to transfer all my purchases over to a new account any advice is welcome many thanks for your time.

    i recieved the same email with the same game and it also stated the purchase was from canada i have revieved a few other as well and am concerned i have changed my password a few times now but i still revcieve emails and am very worried. i recieved the email near the date this question had been put up
    however i do not know how they are downloading apps as my credit card details need verification when i download anything , any help would be much appreciated.

  • I think my account has been compromised. I just got a receipt for $10.69 today that I didn't spend. How do I get my money back?

    I think my account has been compromised. I just got a receipt for $10.69 today that I didn't spend. How do I get my money back?
    I've already submitted my problem to PayPal and they are investigating it. I need to get this reversed and my money back. It's hard enough saving for formula without some ******* buying **** with my information.
    Anyone else have this problem?

    It was a genuine email from iTunes, not a phishing attempt trying to get your account and payment details ?
    Viewing your account's purchase history : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store - Apple Support (on an iOS device you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com)
    Phishing and similar emails : Phishing & Other Suspicious Emails
    Phishing emails : Identifying fraudulent "phishing" email - Apple Support
    Genuine iTunes emails : Identifying legitimate emails from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    If it's a genuine email and it shows on your account's purchase history then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption . And change your account's password e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu on your computer's iTunes, or via http://appleid.apple.com
    If it is a phishing email then forward it to Apple : [email protected] , and then delete it.

  • My premium account has been hacked, please help ASAP!

    Apparently my Spotify account has been hacked last night and the password & email address have been changed so I can't reset my password. My hacked account is "mrouhiai"  I created this new account "mrouhiai_2" to post this message to this forum. I have never shared my account with anyone, and my email has not been compromised. I can prove my identity in many ways if necessary.  This new account I've just created is using my old email from the original account.  You should be able to verify these details easily. Case #: 03363771

    Same here, today somebody changed my account norre01 e.mail address. Now it is [email protected] and I can't reset my password anymore (I tried, didn't got any e-mail). I still can access my account through Facebook login I changed my FB password, their security check didn't find any abnormal activity on my FB account.I sent also message to Customer Support, but probably it takes time. Kind regards PS! Off-topic question; is it possible to recover people/artist whom i following list? 

  • HT4865 My mac.me account has been hacked. What do I need to do?

    I have received the following message notification report. Since I never sent the email I guess my account has been hacked. I have changed my password but assume this isn't enough to protect my account. Thanks for your prompt advice

    That does not mean your account has been hacked.
    All it means is that some spammer has attached your email address to some email he sent. That is incredibly easy to do (just change the From: address) and does not require access to your account.
    Spammers do this all the time. There's nothing you can do about it. Just delete the bounced emails and it will subside when the spammers move on to other email addresses.

  • I think my system has been hacked int

    I think my airport has been hacked into how do I change passowrd

    Unless you are using a very simple password that might be easy to guess, the chances that someone has cracked your network are very small.
    The password is changed using AirPort Utility, an administrative application for the AirPort routers.
    What device did you use to set up the AirPort Extreme originally? If you have a Mac, we'll need to know what operarting system it is using if you want step by step instructions on how to change the password.
    Click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About This Mac. Post back with the OS X Version number that you see there.

    I have just found out my old skype account has been hacked within the last few days. The hackers added two pakistan subscriptions and my debit card attached to my account was charged $49.99 and $29.99. I immediately cancelled the subscriptions and changed my password. What else should I do, and how do I get my debit card charges reversed? Please help. This is very frustrating. Thank you.

    my account has been hacked.. what should i do.. there are several charges that i did not do..

    If you haven't already done so then change your account's password e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or http://appleid.apple.com
    You can also contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • My account has been hacked, what can i do ?

    My I tunes account has been hacked, the password has been changed and the contact email has been changed as well. What can I do ?

    Then you may have to ask Apple to just shut down the account. Also let your bank know. Contact iTunes Support as well. Good luck
