I recently discovered that my accounts were hacked, including my Roblox, Microsoft, and Discord. I didn't worry too much since I didn't have anything valuable, but then when I tried to play Minecraft, I was logged out. Now it says that a different email is associated with my Microsoft account. I've attempted to create a new account, but I keep getting prompted for the password that was changed by the hacker, or a verification code sent to their email. When I try to request a code from my email, it gives me an error message saying 'something went wrong please try again later 0x0048820'. I've reached out to Microsoft support, but they just keep directing me to a password change site that doesn't work. What should I do now?

I feel for you! Account hacks can be really tough to deal with. If Microsoft support isn’t helpful, you might want to check out some online forums or communities dedicated to account recovery. Sometimes other users can offer tips that you won’t find through official channels. Also, if you have any linked accounts, check if those security settings are okay. Don't forget to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) once you regain access!
Sounds super frustrating! The first thing you should do is try to recover your account directly through the Microsoft account recovery page. Make sure to use any recovery options they provide, like answering security questions if you set them up before. If that doesn’t work, consider reaching out to Microsoft support again, but try explaining the whole situation clearly this time. They might have additional steps for you to take.
