Hi, TheEmperor123, and welcome to the Community,
This FAQ article provides next steps:

Please see the section titled, "Hacked Accounts."  Please also sign on to your Skype account dashboard to ensure that your account's registered e-mail address is correct and accurate.  Change your account password if you have not already done so - the easiest way to accomplish this is from within the software or app.  In the Windows Desktop version, it's Skype -> Change Password.
You will be directed to contact Skype Customer Service for assistance.  These tips may be helpful as Skype is experiencing continuing problems with the websites:   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 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.
Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.
Regards,
Elaine

    My Skype account was hacked few hours ago, an online number was bought, plus a lot of credit was used.
    How can I get my money back ?
    I don't see contact support anywhere..please help

    Same thing happened to me.  Skype is a TERRIBLE company to deal with.  I only lost 80 pence < 1USD so I don't really care, but I will never load credit onto my account again.  Skype just lost a customer. Apart from any free services they have. 
    I don't see how my account was hacked, I use it very rarley. It just autologs in. I run it on a networked business PC and the IT guys can't find any viruses/trojons on it.  
    Skype don't care about their customers from my experiences with them

  • Skype account is hacked, need help!!!

    My Skype account is hacked, the password and registered email address has been changed by the hacker. I have submitted skype support request online a few days ago, and no reply at all.
    I've spent hundreds dollars on skype calling service and I have a lot of important contacts on my skype account. Right now the hacker is probably pretenting me to contact my contacts, or maybe using my credit card information saved on skype.
    There is no Skype support phone I can call, online support seems little help. What can I do to get my skype account back?
    HELP!!!

    Just open the link below to report your hacked/stolen account. Select Security and Privacy as Help Topic and Identity Theft/Account Takeover as the Related Problem. Then Click the Continue Support Request button near at the bottom of the page.
    https://support.skype.com/en/support_request?needsLogin=false&topic=****************241&problem=****...
    I think Skype usually respond to users' concern within 24-72 hours.

  • My Skype Account Was Hacked Today

    Hi
    My Skype Account Was Hacked Today. Skype Out Credit was automatically charged to my account twice for 28.35 EUROS each time. A third attempt was rejected due to my daily limit. Multiple calls were made to African Phone Numbers.
    I had a strong password and have since changed it.
    Can we figure out what happened here?
    Can I get refunded?

  • My Skype account was hacked.

    My Skype account was hacked.
    I live alone at the moment while my wife is overseas. I keep Skype on 24/7 in case she needs to get in touch. I went to bed with over AU$15 credit and woke up with an AU$0.05 balance and with two $16 credit top-ups made via PayPal.
    Checking my call history, there were recently 5 unauthorized calls made to Taiwan from my account.
    Clearly there is a security problem with Skype that needs to be addressed ASAP.

    I changed my password. What else should I do? How to get this money back?

    This morning I saw skype charge on credit card and I see unknown activity. somebody is calling using my account. I changed the password and still see the calling. I tried searching for the customer support phone number but was unable to do so. I even chatted with the customer representative but to no avail. I trusted your service and now I am stranded with some hacker using my account. There is no quick customer support and which is very frustrating.

    My Account also got hacked and I too was charged $20. I too had seen some 200+ SMS sent to phone numbers in China. I think Skype servers are hacked and they are not informing users about it. 
    Can someone from Skype respond ?

  • Skype account information hacked or stolen?

    My self and a couple of friend who have Skype accounts have recently been getting annoying text messages to our phones, emails, and to our skype accounts. The reason I'm suspecting this has begun with information from our accounts is the first messages were received by way of Skype in the form of phony members asking did we want insurance. Upon blocking them, phone calls started coming with the phone number [edited for privacy]. The caller ID would say "Skype-FL". This person also asked did I want to purchase insurance. I just hung up on them. Then I started getting text messages from another FL (Florida) phone number telling to claim a prize from Wal-Mart if I called them back. Please look into this as it is a security hazard and also cost myself and others when receiving these text and emails, especially when I'm traveling abroad. Thank you and have a nice day.

    please send a report to [email protected], and include as much details as possible.  I believe that this is just a usual case of people trying to scam Skype users, and doesn't necessarily mean that your account has been hacked or compromised.  
    You can also run a full antivirus scan and change your password as a safety net.

  • Skype account being hacked

    I received a email from skype stated that i had change my password and correspondence address. In actual i never change anything for my skype account. How can i get back my account?

    Hi, Olyaz, and welcome to the Community,
    Neither have I concluded how the perpetrator could have accessed your grandmother's contacts by using your account.  Instead, I suspect that your grandmother's account was also compromised (hacked). 
    Ensure your account passwords are robust (good information is in the articles referenced in my signature block, below).  I would also run an anti-virus/malware/spyware scan on your and your grandmother's computers, using the most recent virus signature files available.  For avoidance of doubt, ensure all updates and patches are also installed, and that things such as Adobe and Java are updated.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • Skype account was "hacked"

    I'll keep this short.
    Someone "hacked" my account a few hours ago.
    I had no trouble resetting my password and getting it back, however I'd like to find out the IP address which the reset was submitted from.
    Nothing else was comprimised so they must have simply guessed my skype password, and, annoyingly, unless I've completely missed it, skype doesn't have the option anywhere (online or in the program itself) to display actions/logins by IP.
    I would really like to be able to narrow down who this was, so if there is any way I could get hold of this information, I'd appriciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.

    I woke up this morning to 4 Skype emails saying that "My Skype Credits have been delivered". What Skype credits? I never order any skype credits as I only use the free service. So I check my Skype account, and sure enough there were 4 Skype transactions made after 1am! While I was asleep!
    These transactions were for $10 each, with one for $25. I checked my PayPal and bank account, and sure enough the charges are going through. So I attempt to contact Skype, and there's no customer service number. Instead, they refer me to this forum. I've already changed my password, and contacted PayPal. Now I need help from a Skype representative, since this is a case of fraud.

    Hi, Corruptiondee, and welcome to the Community,
    Please have the information detailed in this FAQ article at hand when you contact Skype Customer Service:  https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10384/why-has-m​y-credit-debit-card-been-charged-by-skype-when-i-h​...
    Skype does not use a generic or central e-mail address; nor does Skype host a call-in telephone customer support facility.  Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Skype is aware people can experience problems reaching their customer service unit and is working to resolve these issues.  If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service, try again using a different web browser and 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 impede reaching an agent.  It may take a few attempts, however people are getting through.
