Hi,
I am new here but have quite a valid question.
My son has had his msn account hacked by somebody. He was asked in around about way the answer to his secret question and now this person has managed to get to his msn account and use it. We managed to change the password through the forgot password function and they send an email back (which is sent to a bt account) and then we change the password but i think this person has also done this as you can get the mail sent to an alternate email account.
We need to know if there is anything else we can do to stop this person using the account?
Many thanks,
k1ngy

Hello k1ngy,

You will have to contact MSN directly. There is a form here:
http://help.ninemsn.com.au/support/hotmail...ount_hacked.asp

I would also advice you report the incident at your local police station.

Let me know how things go. If needed, I'll mail one of my contacts at MS.
