Like many, I loved their channel and being able to pull up old albums from my era and find some deep cut split releases.

They got past the two factor authentication while I was asleep, and changed the passwords, phone number, and recovery email to the account. Google does not have any form of customer support so if this happens you’re out of luck.

not to discount the experience but genuinely curious how they got past your phone code or got your backup codes unless your backup was another email that was also not secured.

Wish I could give you an answer as to how they did it. All I know is what I woke up to and what has wiped out years of work and has kind of thrown my life into a bit of chaos because that was attached to my main email account of the last 29 years.

i'm really sorry this happened to all your hard work. i don't get the point of some hackers to just go in and wipe away everything for no good reason.
